though, with stuff like that what else are you gonna do once the reish goes OOP. $80 is still a long way from $300
the more expensive the OG the more expensive the re-ish maybe...
I was talking to a dealer yesterday (in Holland) and he said that a few years ago all that OG (placebo, jjband) shit was still available for reasonable prices. Now, even if you're lucky to find one, you have to pay at least 250???, even in Belgium! His shop is closing and he was about all this...sad story, was my no1 spot!!! I got the OG CD of this Comp as a gift, but still need the vinyl though....OG preferred...but not for 250
I remember a rack of these at Amoeba in SF. Probably still there...
It's only a matter of time before reissues and comps become worth $ themselves.
they put this out late 90s right?

Mulatu anyone?
Isn't the winning bidder half of Herbaliser?
if its really ollie teeba, then yes !
Mulatu Of Ethiopia ? expensive too?
both mulatu and sessions sounds good too!
already happnin'. Vinyl on a lot of the nicer legit reish stuff is super limited. Smaller presses than the OG's on a lot of them probably.
think so too, in case anyone wants to grab a copy, visit mpmsite.com..."Get it while you can"
saw the reish for 15???...probably have to cop that! For how much goes an og btw?
Lightin', 1972 Condition: New Copy View Cart
Cosmic jazzy genius from Bubbha Thomas & The Lightmen -- the kind of a record that sounds like it should have come out of Detroit or Chicago in the early 70s -- and not the Texas scene from which the group hailed! The Lightmen have a vibe that reminds us a lot of The Pharoahs or some of the Tribe Records collective -- a willingness to mix free-thinking jazz expression with tighter grooves and funkier rhythms -- stepping out in an instrumental vibe that still has plenty of funky 45 touches, but which also sits nicely alongside the most cosmic work coming out from Impulse at the time! The title cut "Energy Control Center" has an electric spacey quality that reminds us of Sun Ra at his best -- and other tunes soar out with a brilliant post-Coltrane sense of freedom evident in work on saxes, flute, and piano. Titles include "Wench", "Cold Bair", "Leo", "Jupiter's Child", and "The Phantom". (Super heavy cover pressing -- wrapped-around like the original album art!) (From the Jazz LP (J-M) page.)
this one will never go up although the OG is mad rare, why... because the re-vinyl sounds like shit, nicely reproduced cover and the wax/label looks real cool, sad that such a dope record had to be remastered so poorly.
and yes i was quite mad (still am) at dusty for selling it to me....
they should end their item discribtion: and by the way the reissue vinyl sounds like crap!
yup. It's been at about $50 for the last 6 months at least. And copies are up every couple weeks.
This record game is dangerously becoming a Real Doll thing. No
haha! yeah, but you must be unaware that people are balling for OOP Cd's at a higher level than records.
I know, don't get me started on that. Digital is digital, download the damn thing and make a Paypal donation to the artist. Who needs a CD in his life? Is it for the booklet? Those tiny pieces of shit where you can't even read the liner notes? And what about those japanese CD editions where they reproduce the exact LP cover. Go read a fuckin liner note in one of those. Yes doggie, I'm mad.
How long do you guys think the CD will exist from now on? Can we have a CDonly graemlin? Or one that says 'reissue' with a real doll next to it?
