Still looking for original vinyl when I can.....1st US press of TAAB....local record shop..really good shape with complete orignal newspaper insert.
And 1st Spooky Tooth (It's All About )-Tobacco Road (1971)  this one was a re-release with different cover but mint condition so what the hell...(I already own the original 1968 version on Island)
One does nothing yet nothing is left undone.

The TAAB are not too difficult to find.....I find the record is usually in Good but not VG or VG+ shape, using Discogs grading.
I have several US copies, been looking for a VG+ UK CHR 1003 original press with Porky/Pecko stamp. Many online but trying the bins first.......

That's my second US copy, bought the first Reprise when it came out in the US.
I haven't looked for a Chrysalis copy...what is Porky Pecko?

George Peckham, a British lacquer cutting and mastering engineer well known for his work on Beatles (boooo!) Genesis, KC, Hawkwind, Zeppelin and many others. You will find his etching as Porky, PECKO, Porky Prime Cut and sometimes he would inscribe a humorous message.
Pretty much guarantee his work will sound excellent.

I've slowed quite a bit, but honestly there is not much out there I want right now. I have been picking up some classic rock issues at Walmart, my local store has a decent selection. And the pressings are very nice, many are RTI or Optimal so very good quality. Best part is you get the Walmart price, which is usually pretty cheap!!

Dad passed away last year and I quickly realised I can’t splurge mega-bucks on vinyl. I must have over 2000 LP’s, I think I don’t have to get more, although I have my eyes on a couple of Extreme Metal things - Nile, Obliteration Blood Incantation...... but really it’s not a life or death situation.

Dang Tom, I'm really sorry about your father passing Cry. Life events make us think don't they? My perspective is all this stuff is my hobby.....the records, tapes, audio gear, it's not life essential and I have plenty to keep me listening for a very long time.
My wife has been buying more records than I have at garage sales, she'll come home with a bunch of records, most are genres I may not play often like dixieland jazz or american pop/easy listening. Occasionally she will come in with some pretty nice stuff, I have taught her what to look for as you never know when a mint will pop up in a garage sale box.
I'm trying not to get that many records like you, currently I'm around 800 is my guess and that's a manageable number for me......Been buying a lot of jazz records lately especially the new BlueNote releases that are brilliant!

Cheers my friend!

Tom: sorry to hear about your dad; losing a parent sucks. No other words or perspectives needed.

For my collection, a lot of it was funded early on by selling all my thrash & death metal cassettes I bought in the 80's and early 90's...I was surprised how much folks were willing to pay for them. Now I still buy vinyl, but not as often since I have a lot of the essentials pertaining to my tastes now. I've also started selling vinyls that I had bought willy-nilly back in the early '10s but don't listen to anymore (or in some cases, even like). It works out okay since many limited edition versions I had grabbed went up in value.

A couple I bought via Bandcamp on that "fee waving" day.

Tomb Mold & Hatchie together at last.

I'm trying to get my hands on a copy of Dream Theaters Awake, all their albums go for around $30-50, sometimes even more and that's a bit stiff for me.
