Instead, why don't you just rip it to mp3, scatter the tracks on slsk, and drive down the collector price for the rest of us?

Yes I DID find this for $1 at a thrift store a couple of years ago. The vinyl is fine but the sleeve is a little faded/warped.

the vinyl is easy - there's shitloads about. I have mint copies of both that cost me $3 apiece. but the CD is substantially more limited (like many releases in a similar vein around that time, eg certain Opal and Rainy Day albums..)

Yeah, a lot of those mid-80's I.R.S. and DB Recs albums are scarce on cd. Someone call Rhino! A box set is in order.

Can I turn this into an 'elusive CDs I bought for a pittance' thread?

Last month - Opal's 'Early Recordings' for £7.99 from Camden MVE.

Last week - Dolly Mixture's 'Demonstration Tapes', new, for $8.

Bwahaha.

Heh, winning friends already.

The Dolly M CD was from an online record shop based in Michigan, I just tried Googling for it in case they had any more copies, but I can't find the link anymore. Sorry. Perhaps it's like one of the rotating worlds at the top of the faraway tree + only intersects with ours every decade or somesuch.

*note of no possible interest to anyone but self: Reckless, not MVE*
