Someone near me sold off most of his record collection a few months ago.
I bought over 100 NM records from him for about $2 per.
I got ~15 Stones, ~10 Beatles, Tull, Jeff Beck, Fleetwood Mac, Hendrix, Grand Funk, James Gang, Led Zeppelin, etc...

I finally got around to playing The Beatles discography Yesterday... And Today huh huh


Introducing...The Beatles (1964 authentic mono) - one of the most counterfeited records of all time

Look at this picture of them and listen to Twist And Shout...
The mild mannered looks don't match the voices belting out my favorite pre-LSD Beatles song



Meet the Beatles! (1964)



The Beatles' Second Album (1964)



A Hard Day's Night (1964)



Something New (1964)



Beatles '65 (1964 wtf?)



Beatles VI (1965)



Help! (1965)



Rubber Soul (1965)



Yesterday...And Today (1966)
If you have this album with the boys wearing lab coats with decapitated baby dolls on the cover, um, give it to me



original cover...



Revolver (1966)



Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967) somehow I have 2 of these in the same cover - cool



Magical Mystery Tour (1967)



The Beatles (1968)



Part 2 of The Beatles + solo stuff later...

 

Spent some actual $$ today @ Newbury Comix

Black Sabbath ~ Black Sabbath (1970)
Black Sabbath ~ Paranoid (1970)
Jane's Addiction ~ Nothing's Shocking (1988)

The MF sleeves seem pretty good @ $20 for 50 but I like thick paper sleeves better.

They're a little bit cheesy but they're nicely displayed

 

More Beatles

Yellow Submarine (1969) - only side 1 is necessary, side 2 is lame theme music from the movie



Let It Be (released in 1970 but actually recorded before Abbey Road)



Abbey Road (1969) - played Come Together on 78 speed and was attacked by chipmunks



Hey Jude (1970)



Rarities (1980) nonessential but has a few trippy jems such as You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)

 

Then played my Beatles solo stuff

McCartney (1970)



George Harrison ~ All Things Must Pass (1970) all 6 sides - mmmm, Apple Jam



Paul & Linda McCartney ~ Ram (1971)



John Lennon ~ Imagine (1971)



Wings ~ Red Rose Speedway (1973)



Ringo Starr ~ Ringo (1973)



Paul McCartney & Wings ~ Band On the Run (1973)



Wings ~ Venus and Mars (1975)



John Lennon & Yoko Ono ~ Double Fantasy (1980)

 

I didn't know Roger Dean did Uriah Heep covers! I might have bought their album had I known that One of my favorite artists. Right up there with Peter Max (his "real" art more than his commercial stuff).

 

I'll get the next one (UH ~ MB) with a decent cover to put in a picture frame.
Dean did some of the best covers out there


Yesterday's eclectic spin-a-thon...

Pantera ~ Vulgar Display Of Power (1992 Rhino reissue 2LP)



Eric Clapton (1970)



Good Rats ~ Tasty (1974)



Grateful Dead ~ Europe '72 (1972 3LP) - played side 2



War ~ All Day Music (1971)

 

I was watching The Howlin' Wolf Story – The Secret History of Rock & Roll DVD when I realized I missed his Birthday this year.

It would be nice to spin the original Chess Blues but I haven't found any yet.

I'm cranking my German pressing of I Am The Wolf (1988) and loving it

Happy Birthday Wolf and thanks for bringing it fierce

 

Muddy & the Wolf (1974)
Muddy Waters from the Fathers & Sons (1969) sessions
Howlin Wolf from The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions (1971)



Jane's Addiction ~ Nothing's Shocking (1988) - I only had the cassette before - this sounds AMAZING!
