Albums You Purged From Your Collection Today

An alternative to the thread where you tell everybody what you bought. This is the Yin to the Yang: Bye bye to the following vinyl LPs, all either going on Discogs on in my car boot sale box: The Eight Legged Groove Machine by The Wonder Stuff Owned since the earth cooled. Listened to it today for first time in ages. Has aged terribly. Binned Sea When Absent by A Sunny Day In Glasgow Still sealed - bought it on a whim and never got round to listening to it. Sampled a couple of tracks and didn't think much of it In Limbo by TEEN Bought for one track. Now I don't like that track. How fickle Little Creatures by Talking Heads Boring as hell apart from Road To Nowhere (and And She Was when the mood's right) No Beginning No End by Alpha & Omega Jimmy ditches Brit-reggae shock Red Mecca by Cabaret Voltaire Hopefully this thread will create more debate, especially when fellow BEAers say 'what the feck are you doing getting rid of a Cabaret Voltaire LP'?

Give My Regards To Broad Street by Paul McCartney

Not because of lacking musical value. It was just literally unlistenable.

One of at least 20 McCartney recordings since 1975 that was billed as his next great album but never was...

I’m on a CD purchasing ban now which has been implemented by the other half 🙁

Ta-ta to these records clogging up space:

Unconditionally Guaranteed by Captain Beefheart And His Magic Band

Picked up for peanuts a few months back. Never liked it so sold on.

Rock N Roll Animal by Lou Reed

Meh. Owned for nearly 20 years, spun it the other day. Did nowt for me. Flogged.

Uprising by Bob Marley And The Wailers

‘Reggae’ shelf needed space.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles

70s stereo. In really good nick but no need for 2 copies when I’ve got a nigh-on mint 60s mono sitting under lock and key. Sold to a plummer.

Passed Me By by Andy Stott

Bag o’shite. Gone to Germany

Ta-ta to:

Republic by New Order

I've tried and tried, but "Regret" aside still can't bloody stand it.

And this:

Paragons & Friends by John Holt

Which I picked up for a quid and is scratched to fuck. Wasn't all that anyway.

Having a clearout as I've run out of space for my records (again). 1300 LPs seems like a logical point to start the cull. More de-cluttering news to follow.

Ta-ta to:

Disraeli Gears by Cream

Original UK mono press which I picked up for peanuts from the middle of nowhere. Think I'd listened to it a couple of times and doubt I ever would again. Put it on Gumtree and it went within 15 minutes (so maybe I let it go for too low a price), but in any event sold on for a tidy profit and reinvested immediately in some more spiritual jazz. What's going on?

See ya!

Perverted By Language by The Fall

CD of a Fall album which I had the original LP of anyway. Gone off via Discogs to Bath (not for a bath).

Also ditching a Suede 12" that it looks like someone tipped their Bovril over.

Off to be flogged...

Viet Cong by Viet Cong

Gatefold sleeve was clogging up space. Meh.

Violator by Depeche Mode

Picked up a while ago from some dopehead. Record still has faint aroma of gear. Enjoy The Silence aside happy to see the back of it.

And a Spiritualized 12" which is warped factor 9. Some mug'll buy it.

Can you still get bovril? A staple of half time at 70’s football match at St. Andrews (Birmingham City) in the winter.

My Ikea Gnedby shelves have enough room for 30 CDs per year.

As much as I like singer/songwriter type stuff, I gave these a spin today and decided they’re just too vanilla, and don’t deserve a place...

Drive by Bic Runga

No Angel by Dido

They’re off to the “sell” box with 100+ others.

eBay is hardly worth it, with 15% selling fees plus PayPal fees. Thinking I might try selling on Discogs for a change. Anyone else sell there?
