So I recently have bought a bunch of albums.  Over the last year, I have been working on my CD collection and it has grown immensely.  I have failed to post here though.  In the last little while, however, I have bought a cool album I think is worth a mention.  It is the 2001 All Things Must Pass, but on Vinyl.  There is also a Vinyl version of Band On The Run 1999 and Living In The Material World 2006.  I plan to get those, but this is the one I found to be the coolest.  The bonus tracks are tacked on to the ends of sides 1-4 and the recording of the Apple Jam puts “Out Of The Blue ” at the end of Side 5 instead of at the end of the whole thing.  I’m not sure if anyone has ever seen this before.  I just happened about it one day while I was browsing Discogs on some downtime I had at the institute building.

I also decided to order the CD version to go with my 1991 and 2014 versions of the album, but the seller sent me the Russian Bootleg version in the jewel case.  I brought it to his attention and he was a twat about it and lied about what the listing says(which is dumb because I can see what the listing actually says).  So, I caught him in a fraudulent listing and he gave me a half refund and I got to keep the CD.  I probably could have got a full refund, but in the moment I thought half was fair because I was keeping the album.  I have since ordered another copy of the album that is confirmed to be official.

Update:  Just a few hours after posting this the official copy came

I found CD versions of the strictly “dentist office music” orchestrations of Beatles compositions by their producer George Martin, “Off the Beatle Track” and “The Beatle Girls.”  Definitely only for a “completist.”

 

And I finally picked up the Eight Days A Week CD and DVD set.  Happy to see, in effect, that Live at the Hollywood Bowl album finally got the CD treatment outside of Japan.

I bought ‘It Won’t Always Be Like This’ by an Irish band called Inhaler today. It’s brilliant. The lead singer and guitarist, Elijah Hewson is Bono’s son. It has got to Number 1 on the Irish and UK Album Charts.

just got newer reissues of Ziggy Stardust and Young Americans, so now I have that whole run of Bowie’s from Hunky Dory to Let’s Dance (except Pin Ups, which I have no intention of owning a-hard-days-night-ringo-14) on wax, which has gotta be one of the all time great runs of albums (Beatles and Prince’s 80s run come to mind as well)

the only other reissue I own is Scary Monsters; I either got albums from my parents’ and uncle’s collection or found them used, mostly before he died so they were still fairly cheap (I would like to upgrade my copy of Station To Station though)

also got Delay 1968 by Can, been wanting that one for a while

didn’t know it when I ordered it, but that one turned out to be on pink wax!

traded in a bunch of stuff (mostly locals’ 7-inches I hadn’t listened to in like five years), ended up getting Ace of Spades by Motörhead (somehow had Overkill for years but not that one), Oxygène by Jean Michel Jarre (I love 70s synth records like this) and Stevie Wonder’s Journey Through the Secret Life of Plants (old copy that was still in the shrink!)

I have that album on vinyl. Wish I had it on CD for road trip purposes, though.

Speaking of road trip purposes, this came in the mail today:

I have got The Travelling Wilburys Collection with Volumes 1 and 3 with the DVD of the documentary and the music videos. It’s fantastic.

Wow, VC&D, are you trying to replicate my collection? Nearly every album mentioned in your last two posts is one I’m happy to own! Only exceptions: Oxygene (digital copy only) and the Nazz comp (got the first two albums instead)
