Attack of the Vicious Vinyl Vampires!

No, I haven't posted in a few days and you've all been utterly lost and without direction in my absence. In my defense, I had a birthday and I've been one busy son of a witch. The aforementioned birthday brought me so many albums I may have to rent a second plot for storage. Care for a list? No? Too bad.
Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures(180 gram vinyl with textured sleeve)
The Cure - Disintegration
Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead(Slow to Speak Edit) By far the coolest present ever
Echo and the Bunnymen - Lips Like Sugar single
Depeche Mode - Strangelove single
Grand Master Flash and Melle Mel - White Lines single
Deep Purple - In Rock
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
Yes - The Yes Album
Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Nightingales & Bombers
Rick Wakemen - Journey to the Center of the Earth
Steely Dan - Pretzel Logic
Steely Dan - The Royal Scam
Aretha Franklin - Get it Right
Night Ranger - 7 Wishes
Dionne Warwick - Soulful
Styx - Equinox
Styx - Pieces of Eight
The Moody Blues - To Our Children's Children's Children
The Moody Blues - Seventh Sojourn
Kris Kristofferson - Help Me Make it Through the Night
Kris Kristofferson - To the Bone
Kris & Rita - Breakaway
Kris & Rita - Natural Act
Art Garfunkel - Watermark
Climax Blues Band - Stamp Album
Loretta Lynn - Hymns
Les Dudek - Ghost Town Parade
Van Morrison - A Sense of Wonder
Jim & Ingrid Croce - Another Day, Another Town
Bloodrock - 2
Lightnin' Hopkins - S/T
Fleetwood Mac - Penguin
Mountain - Nantucket Sleighride
John Fogerty - Eye of the Zombie
Bruce Springsteen - Darkness on the Edge of Town
Jackson Browne - Hold Out, The Pretender, Running on Empty, & Late for the Sky
Also Leonard Cohen's Various Positions on CD

Do you care in the least? Probably not, but I couldn't be happier. All the Halloween spookiness will return soon.

  2. Happy Birthday!!!!

    Jackson Browne always sounds better on vinyl!

    Any chance we get to hear the Bauhaus? How's it different?

    Thanks for sharing.

  3. Thanks so much for the Birthday wishes!
    I've always wanted to hear the unbearably lush Disintegration on vinyl, and it does not disappoint.
    As for Mr. Browne, I think vinyl was created for brilliant singer/songwriters.
    I don't have the means to transfer any of my albums to my computer yet because I always spend the necessary money on more albums. The remix involves quite a bit of 'spooky' sound effects in the intro and a bit of fiddling here and there with the over all song. It's by no means superior to the original, but with the silk screened sleeve, the engraved B-side, and the obvious love for the gothfathers, it's a killer collectible.
    Thanks for commenting.
