Bypassed a series on delays on the M25 on way home from Hatfield, which took me through Hendon, Kilburn, Maida Vale and saw me end up in Ladbroke Grove. Ended up ยฃ100 worse off, but with good reason:
50/100!!! ๐ (more on that here). You have NO IDEA how I felt when I found this. I was literally tingling inside, and I even got the guy behind the counter to put it on because I thought I was dreaming (and to check it - original JA pressings are notoriously iffy). The adrenaline was pumping - it was one of those experiences only a record geek can appreciate. It was also the most I've ever spent on a record (ยฃ40), but it was in absolutely amazing nick. In fact it doesn't look like it's ever been played. UNTIL NOW... _________________ 'Reggae' & t'ing Folk 'n Stuff SHAMELESS RECORD DEALER PLUG

Incredible. I wouldn't mind a copy for myself.
Now that I'm settled in a new place with no future plans of having to lug large heavy crates of vinyl to a new home, I've picked up a few things of late:
Looks like a lovingly put together 3LP set, with some excellent packaging and artwork. Wasn't sure they'd go to the trouble of pressing it to vinyl given its length, so I was extremely happy to see it pop up on Ninja Tune's website. _________________ 2021 in full effect.

Not long back from the Guildford Record Fair which didn't have as many bearded gentlemen and the lingering smell of B.O. as I thought. Picked up these:
ยฃ2.50 each, original Belgian and British presses respectively. Marble Index was in fantastic nick bar a little mark where the price sticker had been. Amazingly the guy also had Rough Trade pressings of Hatful of Hollow and The Queen Is Dead for the same price, but they were marked and scratched to buggery.
