Mouseboy11 Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 I find the hordes of blokes queuing overnight for vinyl and clearing the place out early on all a bit much to be honest with Record Store Day so can't really be arsed with it. Mate did pick me up the Idles EP though which was about all I wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And got a free RSD tote bag, which kept Mrs Mardy happy. Those compilations are so good. Solid from start to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Popped in to Probe this afternoon, they hadn't even stocked the one I was after. I got the Tweedy album though. Will report back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooderson Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 I’m not too put out by the gender imbalance at RSD. Not everything in life needs to be overtly 50:50 in participation. Men love collecting stuff. Chill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mardy Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Just been tempted into buying the ‘this is the kit’ RSD release. Desperately trying to resist buying the Robyn album and the Airto reissue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been to 3B and Dig. Dig is a nice little store. V well ran. The two lads behind the desk in Probe are Jim Henson characters I’m convinced of it.

Chef Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 I swerved the queues at the weekend but I'll stop by Sister Ray and Reckless on the way home from work to see if anything is left, one thing I I've learned from the past is stores get a healthy level of vinyls restocked during the week. I fancy the Bingo Hand Job at Borderlines LP but that's about it really, although not spent that much time looking at the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted June 8, 2019 Report Share Posted June 8, 2019 Decent sale on at HMV this week. Amongst some other stuff I got the re-issue of Beggars Banquet reduced from £41 to £20. Had to leave before I spent more money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosj Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Anyone watched the Rolling Thunder documentary released yesterday on Netflix? I've watched half so far, really like it, and nice to see Dylan with humour in an interview. I got the CDs recent too. OK, it's not vinyl, but there were more songs on the CDs.

I loved it. Some of the performances were mind blowing. Maybe his best live era. The ISIS performance in particular. Wow. Bob as funny and laconic as ever in the interviews. Loved the bit where he was asked about fans expectations and finished with "who gives a shit?". Sums it up. Anyway, this may be purchased.

Went in to Fopp in Covent Garden the other day, some good bargains to be had. They also seemed to have their own version of Record Store Day - They reissued 1000 copies on red vinyl Rolling Stones Sweet Summer Sun LP from their performance in Hyde Park and managed to get myself a copy, been after that for a while but sells for decent money everywhere else I have seen it.

Chef Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Decent little collection of tunes. Would be more than happy to see them back together on the Pyramid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBurns Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 I have amassed a decent collection of vinyls despite not owning a turntable myself so they sit in my parents house and get an play once or twice a year on my Da's turntable. Now I have more space in the new place I need to get myself a proper setup for here so any advice on a good turntable and amp, hopefully reasonable priced? I'd also take recommendations on decent speakers if anyone has some, I could do with an upgrade anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mph Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Any experts out there? I have a Numark TT1520 but doubt that's relevant, I put a new cartridge on it and there is a humming noise which gets louder as it nears the centre of the record, put the old one back on and it doesn't happen, any ideas or shit cartridge?

mph Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Odd thing is there were was no hum with the old cartridge and if I put the old one back on there is no hum, only with the new one. Considering the tricky task of swapping the stylus from the new cartridge into the old cartridge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mph Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 I replaced the whole cartridge, seemed straightforward enough, there was no fiddling with cables, or am I missing something simple ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
