What was the last vinyl you bought?
Posted by: apye! on 18 January 2011
Arrived today in the post:
Damien Rice, O, finally released on vinyl. It really is very good...
Stu
Purchased for my father, Eydie Gorme - Love is a Season and Jo Stafford - The Best Of, the Gorme album sounds particularly good with excellent dynamics.
Joni Mitchell -
Hissing of Summer Lawn and
Live at Newport 1969
In the current Amerika , have to retreat to the past
both were 180 gram releases - very nice
Seems to be an HMV vinyl sale, ending today - Amazon might be price matching based on the quick few I checked.
2 x LP from PledgeMusic [USA]
A nice fusion of varying styles of jazz that blend seamlessly into a fabulous album : )
Debs
Miles Davis - 'Round About Midnight - Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab remasterd mono vinyl. 2013.
S/H vinyl, originally bought the new blue vinyl version but the pressing was dreadful!!

Fantastic record I have two copies of this as I found a mint one in a Charity shop a few years back for £1 and just couldn't leave it there. Thanks for the heads up about the reissue as I was considering buying it. I did buy the last Style Council lp on yellow vinyl called Modernism a New Decade from that reissue series as it was the only SC record I didn't own on vinyl but unfortunately that pressing was not great too.
Brian Eno 9 lp box set edition
2018 vinyl reissue

Miles Davis - Ascenseur Pour L'echafaud fillm soundtrack - 2018 remaster on Decca/Fontana - The complete recording sessions on three 10" records remastered from the original analogue tapes at Abbey Rd studios.
Bobbie Gentry Live at the BBC RSD special. I ran into a guy in the train to London on Thursday and we got talking about music, we were talking about RSD, and I commented I would have liked to pick this up, but hadn’t been around to get to a shop. He told me he had seen it in a local shop recently, messaged them, confirmed it was there, and had it put aside for me. (I may have bought a few other things when I got there yesterday.)
Ralp McTell and Wizz Jones, and about time 1 & 2 double vinyl, bought last night at the merch table in the interval of a great gig from these 2 pioneers of the English folk scene in the ‘50s and ‘60s.
The Tull - This Was - UK stereo pressing (On Chrysalis, but has an Island matrix number):
UK first press, on plum and orange Atlantic. Booklet intact, in fact it's mint (record and sleeve):
UK first press minty, to replace my battered copy (I bought it when I was still at school, 38 years ago! )

That is a cracking album Eoin, I managed to get a listen or two to it recently. Enjoy!
UK first press:
UK (first pressing) version:
Yet another UK first press:
The Gangster of Love in his disco period. UK first press from 1978:
I always wonder if this band and their lead singer Noosha Fox have influenced Goldfrapp (and Alison in particular). Anyway, here's another disc from my latest haul. On UK first press (GTO Records) from 1975:
A USA first press copy, on Atco:
The final item from my weekend haul. Another UK first pressing:
