When they say.. "they all have the covers AND THEY ALL PLAY" which by that I think they mean they aren't broken in to pieces or anything so you should surely want to have them all. I have this message saved on the answering machine, a guy who leav…

David Mancuso became a legend for his club the Loft in the 70's despite never mixing a record. The way the audiophile decks and amp was set up didn't allow it. He plays each track in its entirity i always thought that was his steez, i seem to remem…

he didn't help them carry in the speakers last weekend That changes everything.. HE'S OUT OF THE GROUP!!

And thanks for all the information - good stuff. It seems like in summary so far there was not any real endorsement of the SOUND QUALITY of any reissue labels except maybe the high end audiophile ones (which as mentioned, seem to release some real…

Interesting stuff in the thread on the art/science of reissues/remastered LPs.. What do you think some of the best and worst reissue labels are (current, or past) It seems 4 Men With Beards is a pretty obvious choice for some quality reissues - I …

Random thoughts here..(possible spoilers) 1. The Departed had BALLS. That's why it was a great movie. It's not Marty's most precise directing job nor a perfect script without some flaws but it had it where it counts. 2. Whenever I try and wa…

I was going to just keep it on the DL that I switched from BackSpin to my name name. When I first got on here I wanted to promote my store (BackSpin) but later I decided it was kind of lame to use it as my user name. It doesn't really work as a u…

Wow I didn't even know a thing as an auto-sniper existed. I use this one. http://www.auctionstealer.com/home.cfm This is almost the same.. but better than just bidding your max. With this you can bid your max and then just forget about it. You'…
-
I'm thinking about going back to the days of bidding my absolute max like five minutes into a seven-day auction--just to make things a little more spectacular. I have seen some Japanese dudes do this. They exert their bidding dominance with an iron…

so prime cuts tells me about 2 months ago about a couple he bought records from at a spot in jersey, who told tale of 10,000 records in their basement. he runs into them again this past weekend and they finally come through. so i drive through the…

Divshare is gonna blow the fuck up like Youtube....If it's that easy, that idiots like me can use it in 5min....then yea. Yeah.. I just used it and it actually worked the first time.. no hitches.. no annoying adds.. I had this great business idea…

Has anyone used it on their ebay listings? It does look slick as eel snot Recently my friend embedded a video from youtube in one of his auctions (to show off this goofy 70's disco light). So you should be able to use divshare for audio. He was s…

Is youtube becoming the new cinema? Is anything that's happening on line (besides downloading) gonna have long term effects on the movie industry? I'd say no.. there is something about the cinema and the movie theater experience that can not be rep…

For Post-2000 film whre does SuperSize Me lie? it will be forgotten Disagree. I think documentaries have taken a huge stride forward post-2000 in terms of general awareness within popular culture. I'm not claiming they're better made in this decad…

When sealed records are opened for the first time, why is it that sometimes the inner sleeves are folded over at a corner or more, while other times they are not? Does anyone have any insight into this somewhat disturbing lack of uniformity? Also: …

Good time to try out this div share This is Os Sambacanas - Yesterday (a little scratchy at the first)

The Beastie's were trailblazers PERIOD. their legacy. This is absurd--it has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of their music. I know half you SoulStrut dudes spent your high school years fantasizing about being the fourth Beastie Boy and…

If you've seen them live then you will never hate on them again. Dudes know how to rock a show and bring it. 5th='97=Mix Master Mike rocking "Tom Sawyer" doubles, in the round stage set up, Tribe as the opener on their last tour. Don't know if I'd…

Gary Numan "films" and "m.e" from the pleasure principle are the bombs. how are the other albums? OH SNAP - I forgot - Tubeway Army is the most raw, punky, Gary Numan LP you can get. Highly reccomended.. find "please listen to sirens" for a taste o…

I'm really feeling this stuff lately, but I need to be schooled. A Certain Ratio, ESG, Liquid Liquid, The Tom Tom Club, Gary Numan... that's the kinda stuff I'm feeling. What am I missing out on? Can someone hip me to some artists? Old and new. …

This one's up there too and it seems more legit (at least some of the bidders do): http://cgi.ebay.ca/SIAH-AND-YESHUA-DAPO-...1QQcmdZViewItem still going for a fair amount. I've sold that record buy-it-now (un fake-sealed) for $40.
