The Vinyl Thread: Still Listen On Wax, Don't Use The CD

[Ello Sailor]

Jorge, how much did your haul weigh? Do you have luggage space or are you just going to fork out the extra?

[Rangi Guy]

I'm (finally) alphabetizing my collection, in hopes of starting to use Discogs as intended (I had only logged about 50 from my collection, and most of the stuff purchased from their marketplace).
Anyway, I gave DisCovers a shot before I hit the delete all button, just to see what it looks like.



Should look waaaay different in a month or so.
Curious about what a disciplined user's collection looks like.
Come on, try it.

Never knew of DisCovers before

great haul!! i was mostly disappointed with RT in London, specially because i loved it at Williamsburg.

I want that Bill Evans one

[Jorge]

Which one did you go to? There are two, I think. I went to Rough Trade West and loved it

It was four tote bags that fit snugly into my carry-on bag. I didn't think to weigh it but had no problems transporting it

I also bought a book about Kate Bush, a book by Jeff Tweedy, How Music Works by David Byrne, and the Kathleen Hanna book (signed!)

both. I thought they were kinda meh. Maybe because i was expecting something similar to the one in the US. My fault.

I did liked Third Man, mainly because i like their catalogue of course.

Nice haul Jorge, I’ve only been to rough trade NYC and hated it. Way overpriced.

Nice!
We have a similar collection. I am envious of Diamonds on the Inside and Lost Dogs.
Coming Home by Leon Bridges is life.

Also, if you ever need shelf space I'll take "The Airplane Flies High" as a favor.

Was good having this visual representation as I was able to look at it and go - 'Hey I haven't added 'x' to my discogs' pretty sure that there's still a handful missing.
Lost dogs I picked up locally off our version of eBay from someone who was selling that and original pressings of Ten, Vs, No Code and Lost Dogs - had no idea what they were worth, so I got a bargin

[VinylGuy]

yeah, i was about to buy Lost Dogs when it came out and got the cd and thought ¨well maybe later¨

damn you stupid sonofabitch

[Buby]

We're bound to get a Lost Dogs reissue one of these days.
And Benaroya Hall while we're at it.

yeah, i almost fell for a Benaroya boot in Paris last year. Went again to the same record store and saw it again. That place had so many boots so expensive i just left.

partyman!

[Rangi Guy]

partyman!

That sir is quite the collection. I don't think I'd have the space for all of that

[AndySlash]
