With the 2LP set you only get a "best of" from the show, and I can't afford 6LPs.
With the CDs, I get the whole show for less than the 2LP reissue.

I remember a mate loaned this to me on CD years and years ago, not long after it was released. I taped Talking Loud and Saying Nothing onto a mix tape which I managed to then lose not much later. For like 5 years I went searching for that song again and could never find it until streaming rolled around and got big.

Great tune.

A good cover of a great tune.

How much other Living Colour do you know, Higgs?

Yep, James Brown had lots of bangers.

Little bit of their stuff, the biggies only really I guess. Always thought Vernon Reid was a sick guitarist.

Recently while browsing vinyl, I shopped the store's used CD collection and found a lot of good stuff that was much more affordable. I've really toned down my vinyl buying lately, even the used stuff is so expensive now. Anyone else still listen to these shiny little discs, or have you just moved to streaming?

My most recent purchase was a copy of this for $4 last weekend.

Nowadays I like looking for rarities in clearance stores or chasing harder to find stuff in Discogs every now and then. My girlfriend thinks of this as my music museum and has gotten in tune with how satisfying it can be to own music as a permanent object; currently seeking St. Vincent's full works in CD.

Nice, which one?

I always really liked "Nightingale" on that album. And "Careless Love" on the BPB album.

Spoiler: show

this thing still has bluetooth capabilities. Who am I kidding?
