I have all my vinyl albums bought back in the day through "Sign O The Times". I also have all my 12 Inches bought back then through "New Power Generation" and many of the 45s. Andy is a four letter word. | |

thekidsgirl said: I saw the Housequake 12" single along time ago, but I didn't get it because it didn't have a b-side I think, but I don't really remember.
I shoulda just got it though, cause it was only 75 cent! Now I can't find it  The Housequake remix is an incredible hybrid of Madhouse jazz/funk with brilliance of the album version. I've always wished P would do the Housequake remix live. If you have a chance to buy it snap it up! | |

pardon my ignorance, but whats a 45s? 45 -- it's a smaller vinyl record that plays at a spead of 45 revolutions per minute. Usually contain one song on each side. Better watch out -- you started a thread about collecting vinyl and you didn't know what a 45 was. (not hatin', just sayin'!)

Okay, I feel old now that there's someone that has to ask what a 45 is. " a newborn child knows nothing of destruction, nothing of love & hate" | |

pardon my ignorance, but whats a 45s? Its also known as a " 7 inch" on account of their size in the same way as a "12 inch" Hope this helps  Reality is an illusion

Now that I have all the cds I am going back and trying to get most of the albums on vinyl and definitely any extended versions that have not been officially released on CD. I have some on picture disc, some regular 12", 45s, etc. It's a never ending challenge. I feel like the wrecka stows in NYC are pretty picked over, I have better luck with the Chelsea flea market or the 'net.
Some of my highlights are: Controversy with shower poster Gold Experience promo LP on gold vinyl Little Red Corvette (extended) with the calendar poster insert Mountains/Alexa de Paris (white vinyl) Purple Rain LP with the Revolution poster Sexy Dancer (long version) Sexy MF 12" promo on gold vinyl Apollonia 6 w/lyrics poster Madhouse 8 promo Mazarati promo Vanity 6 and both of Vanity's solo albums Unfortunately, I *still* don't own a turntable!  I keep meaning to buy one, but there are always more important things to use the money on (bills, rent,  )The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |

I just started recollecting vinyl again. I lost a whole lot of stuff in a fire at my storage and was heartbroken. I was more upset tht I lost my Prince stuff than anything else(I have a purple sickness and I don't want it cured). I found the other day a few gems.
Controversy w/ poster Gold promo in gold vinyl (gold on 1 side and rockn' roll is alive on the other) Hot Thing 12in Black Album Mountians 12in I will be going back to dig thru the crates of this fun lil hole in the wall record store Just Call Me Afrochick
I love you mom | |

steve4key said: I used to collect old vinyl when i had more money 2 spare. I'd go to record fairs (we have quite a few over here in the UK.The international record fair in London is usually a very good one) and second hand shops which normally have a record or music section to browse through.
You have to be prepared to sift through boxes of rubbish albums but you may come across what U want (although U can be very lucky, I once paid £2.00 for a Queen album on WHITE VINYL that when i checked with a trader at a local record fair claimed it was worth at least £250.00) I have every Prince album on vinyl upto TGE when i believe no other Prince albums were released on this format (Please correct me if i am wrong, I've been out of the market for a while and now only buy CD's) and have evey1 on CD. I have a few gems such as 5 x versions of the Purple Rain album (1 x purple vinyl + 1 with the "revolution Poster") Head 12" Lets Go Crazy 12" 1999 12" (4 versions) I would die 4 U 12" Purple Rain 12" with poster When Doves Cry 12" double pack Paisely Park 12" Remix Raspberry Berret 12" Pop Life 12" America 12 (20min jam mix) Kiss 12" Mountains 10" WHITE VINYL Girls & Boys 12" Anotherloverholenyohead 12" Sign "O" the Times 12" Pic disc U Got the Look 12" Pick disc ICNTTPOYM 12" If I was your Girlfriend 12" Posterbag Alphabet St 12" Glam Slam 12" Remix I Wish U Heaven 12" Posterbag Batman Album Pic disc Batdance 12" Pic disc Partyman 12 Pic disc Arms of Orion 12" Pic disc The Future 12" Remix Theives in the Temple 12" pic disc New Power Generation 12" Pic disc Get Wild 12" (plays inside out) Gett Off 12" + 12" remixes Cream 12" Pic disc Money don't mater 2nite 12" Pic disc Diamonds & Pearls 12" Pic disc Thunder 12" Pic disc Sexy MF 12 Sexy MF Shaped Pic disc My name is Prince 12" + 12" Remixes + 12" Pic disc 7 12" Pic disc Most Beautiful Girl in the World 12" Remixes Letitgo 12" + 12" Remixes and my prized Prince possesion "Lovesexy Album SIGNED by Prince, Sheila & Cat" from a signing session at Virgin Megastore in Oxford Street London 88 when on the Lovesexy Tour. This is only a small amount of stuff i have and does not include 7" singles or various different albums (ie Imports). Trying to find vinyl is like the "X files". the truth is out there somewhere. U just gotta go find it.
[Edited 3/15/07 3:31am] Doing likewise... and yup, for vinyl collectors, London rocks! | |
