In Topic: Lamenting over vinyls we didn't get

09 June 2011 - 07:40 PM

I just got a new turntable about a month ago and started getting a whole lot of albums. the only artist that i am severely lacking in is John Frusciante. I have one record, that's *sort of* a John Frusciante album, and that is the Brown Bunny soundtrack. I bought a few years ago, when I was trying to collect all the JF stuff I could, on CD, because i didn't have a good turntable. the Brown Bunny CD was always SO expensive*, so I found a vinyl copy for a reasonable price (around $20), and bought that. My record player was not so great, but it was better than nothing. Now it's the only JF vinyl I have! and i'm glad and lucky to have it! it will be expensive to get them all, but I'm thinking of getting a few.. my favourites: Will to Death, Inside of Emptiness, Shadows Collide With People, and The Empyrean. I'd like Niandra LaDes & Usually Just a T-shirt, but as far as I can tell, it was never released on vinyl.

But yes, to add to the lamenting, I wish I could get these, but they are SO expensive. I wish Record Collection/merchlackey would stick to their word and make some more! That is, on recordcollectionmusic.com, you go to the store, and find (for example) the Will to Death on vinyl, it's $16, with a little message "Manufacturing delay, new ship date coming soon.", which has been there forever!!



*And as a side note, about Brown Bunny, later i got lucky with the CD - the CD is usually like $50 or more, wherever I come across it, but there was a store in my town going out of business, so they had a 70% off sale, and they had that album, so after the discount, I bought it for a pretty normal reasonable CD price!
