5 of the 6 are...

Radiohead Kid A
Radiohead Amnesiac
Radiohead King of Limbs (Newspaper version)
PJ Xmas 03 (Reach Down/I believe in Miracles)
PJ Xmas 10 (No Jeremy/Falling Down)

Did I get those right???

The 2 Pearl Jam singles and Kid A are right. Amnesiac is my favorite Radiohead record, but I don't own it!

The other three are:

Bonnie Prince Billy - Hummingbird
Soundgarden - Before the Doors
Sigur Ros - Varúð

I hate how 10" records just don't blend well on the shelf with the rest of the collection.
As for the 7" singles, I just keep 'em in a box. I don't even try. What do you guys do?

This is the exact convo I had with the record store guy, i. e., how annoying it is to deal with 10'' Mine are down the end of the shelf, and to keep the 12'' LPs from bending over on top of them, I had to use a couple of books to keep everything tight and propped up.

Do you guys use custom slipmats? I saw this today, and I think I need to snatch it up before Disney brings down the banhammer: http://webstore.gramaphonerecords.com/d ... ipmat.aspx

Waiting on an angel. Fuck.

I just now spotted the Hallelujah 7 inch. Nice. I tried to pick that up on RSD but my shop only had 1 copy

My Iphone re-booted at work the other day. Plugged it into the computer and tried to update and failed. So i had to restore everything. Went home that night and put a whole new batch of tunes on it. I have a 160 GB Ipod- but my phone is for the special tracks that come with me to work and other various activities. So, I ended up putting Buckley version of Hallelujah on there. I then thought to myself "gee, Strat, can i get this track on vinyl? I wonder what that is like" I then proceeded to google to see what options I had and saw that there was a Cohen/Buckley 7" from RSD. Shit. Nice!

My monthly/bi-weekly trip to my local record store yielded a couple Tom Waits records and one of my favorite Harper records. I was also lucky enough to discover, whilst Tom (record store owner) was rinigng me uip - I noticed this 7" that i previously discovered via the google sitting in a bin near by.

So I grabbed it

Super cool!

I've got a Hunters and Collectors record playing right now (The Jaws of Life.) I recommend this album to each of you if you ever come across it. It's full of straightforward mid-tempo funk/punk songs, and the bass in your speakers will get quite a workout. The bouncy music on this album works especially well if you're making fluffy egg omelettes on a Saturday morning.

Couple of nice finds at Deep Groove, my local Richmond VA store:

A Perfect Circle- Mer De Noms 180 gram reissue
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club- BRMC (EU pressing)

Really excited to find the BRMC vinyl. Now I just need Take Them On, On Your On.

After years of looking I finally got a copy of TRICLOPS! - Cafetaria Brutalia

At first I was like, 'Maybe I'll try to buy every Robert Pollard/GBV release this year. You know, for fun!' Then I was like: 'There are already six 7'' releases? I'm out!'
