what was your last vinyl purchase?

Posted by: AL4N on 13 March 2004

after a suggestion,i thought it may be wise to split up the "what was the last album you bought" topic into 2.
so to kick it off
black eyed peas--shut up 12"

Had a little wander around the Laines in Brighton before a show and managed to pick up a few oldies lost in the mists and parties of yore.
Bad Co - Bad Company
Script for Jesters Tear - Marillion
The Road to Hell - Chris Rea
Not bad @3 4 £5.
Most of the shops now seem to have caught on and prices seem to be rising, not so many bargains. Mind you it was a reasonably quick walk through so bargains may have been lurking.
Any recommendations from locals for vinyl or CD shops in Brighton?

Big,

I used to go shopping in Brighton a fair bit, not so much recently.

There is a shop in the same Square as Rounder that knocks out cheapish CDs.

There are a nuber of s/h places in Sidney Street, and a few further up, like Across the Tracks and Wax Factor (miserable and expensive!)

I understand Energy Flash has shut down?

Is Borderline still open? It looked a bit lacking in stock / desperate when I last went.

Edgeworld has some good post-rock / indie stuff, but was shut when I last went.

Perhaps not in your area, but Dance Music trader and Bangin' Tunes are ones I go to.

I feel another record shop topic coming on...

Amp Fiddler "Waltz of a Ghetto Fly": Heavy on the 70's funk but pretty laid back with it. Sort of an updated Sly and the Family Stone, if you will.

Worth a listen.

Funnily enough I mentioned this site on the PFF a few days ago, as they are setting up an record shop database there. I use this, and www.knowhere.co.uk to seek out shops in areas.

Martin,

Where did you order the Alison Krauss album from? Diverse are charging £35+ for it.

Cheers

I got it from vivante.co.uk unfortunately the same price. Apparently it’s a dear one as the original album was long enough for the vinyl version to run to a double. I cant play it yet as I’m still decorating and the system is in bits. I’ve only bought a few claimed “super pressing” things and must admit some are as Bob Atherton suggested and seem a bit warm and cosy compared to the original. I just bought it out of speculation and the review in HiFi+

Posted on: 07 July 2004 by Dave J
Thanks Martin,

Like you, I read the HiFi+ review and, having bought New Favourite and Forget About It on vinyl (wonderful albums, by the way), thought this would be worth a punt. But £35! I'm checking with a couple of US sites, one of which has it listed at $36.99, about £20, to see if they'll export.
