Now, that is an excellent picture. Love shots of spinning turntables!

I recently picked up:

I wonder why we listen to poets when nobody gives a fuck

Thanks! It's a Marantz 6300, circa 1972. It sounds great, but could use some TLC on the tonearm damper, and the pitch pots are shot too.

Come Closer

I've been contemplating getting One From The Vault. You have a chance to spin it yet?

Sure did, last night as soon as I got home. The remastering is great, it sounds fantastic, and it's worth every penny to me now, but I had to get past the sticker shock.

How did you get it? Wasn't this the one that was impossible to get?

I got mine on discogs.com, where practically anything can be found, and now I just need the other two Battered Ornaments singles, and they're out there. There are three of the Storm Cloud / Cotton Strands on discogs, and a Tiny Circles / Mercy II is on ebay, but they want way too much for it. I need to take a break from vinyl-buying after my recent binges...and I need to build another record shelf!

Became a huge Warren Zevon fan (always been but recently re-discovered him), amazing artist, great song writer and musician. Hope MMJ will do some Warren Zevon Covers someday, too ;)

Nice!  I noted a copy of Oko went for a semi-reasonable price recently. Hope that was you.

I want Okonokos soooo badly.  How much does it usually go for these days?

You can buy it now on eBay for $195.00. The last one sold there for $225

I got my copy (well it's still in transit) for $115 shipped.  It's obviously not sealed and the packaging is somewhat dinged up.  The actual records are supposed to be in very good shape though.  I had the feeling I would never find a better price so I went ahead and pulled the trigger.  Also the fact that I don't have to be obsessively looking for it is quite a relief.

that's about what I saw it for recently from a German ebay site.  I was a little wary of pulling the trigger myself. But I'm naturally highly suspicious.
Don't you ever turn it off

Geez, at my old job we had 5 copies of this on LP and I balked on it because the employee price for me would have been....      $55.

I should have bought them all!

Glad I got Okonokos right before the prices went way up. I can't remember what I paid, but I don't think it was more than $60. i even bought it before i got my record player, with intentions of getting one soon.
That's motherfuckin' John Oates!
