Please don't tell me you bought the shitty Plain repress. It's basically a CD pressed onto wax and trash compared to the original.
Dang, that's what it is. Well, at least I got it at a price of $10 from a guy at my school who never opened it because I'm seeing it for around $22 on Amazon. _________________ ...and for dessert!

Yeah, avoid Plain represses... I remember Kevin Shields being pretty pissed about their repress of Loveless. From what I remember, it was something along the lines of what Jim said. They take the digital CD and plop it on wax (which, you probably shouldn't do). It's why I don't have any Mazzy Star records ๐คฃ
Mind you, for $10, you can't really go wrong with a Spiritualized record. Especially because I think it's the only recent repress of it.

Damn, I just got duped outta $10, but it could be worse. This is the part of vinyl collecting I should brush up on before making a purchase. However, I did unintentionally avoid purchasing a bad copy of A Blaze In the Northern Sky on wax for a genuine copy, so at least I go that going for me. _________________ ...and for dessert!
The Hidden Tapes: A Compilation of Minimal Wave From Around the World '79-'85

Bought it digitally, but, I bought it lol.
It is soo fucking recommended if you have any interest in synth-based music. Almost every single track on this compilation is a gem. Literally half of these tracks are 5-star classic songs that are gonna stick with me. And they're like all obscure artists that released a couple of singles and nothing else so this is the best way to hear them. Cannot get over this thing! Album art kinda sucks though.

Day up in Larrrrrrrrrndarrrrrrrrrrrrn Town at Lord's to see the cricket, followed by a quick hop to Soho to visit a couple of record shops on the way home. Pick up 4 stonkers, all bar one an original:
2nd original Stereolab press I've managed to acquire after getting Transient Noise Bursts... from a shop in Northampton earlier in the year. There's some right shoddy re-issues of 'Lab albums doing the rounds - don't bother with dem innit... _________________ 'Reggae' & t'ing Folk 'n Stuff SHAMELESS RECORD DEALER PLUG
