Make It Work compilation

By Dave | Published 09/18/2011

Seller bellelameg has a semi obscure gem for us. The Make It Work 7″ comp features the first released Youth Of Today songs (the songs on CT Fun were recorded first but didnt come out first). The tracks were later remixed and included on the Rev reissue of Cant Close My Eyes. Around 350 were pressed, 200 came with the zine and 150 with a sleeve. Given how old it is im sure its hard to still find one with the zine. Alas this copy doesnt have one with it. But yo for real, how good is Take A Stand?

The sticker makes all the difference

Yeah know, when I sold my first press Side By Side 7″ I didn’t even get a measly 30 bucks for it. But check out Mr. thedanceofdays over here, already over $50. All because of that stupid sticker. You know it’s just a stupid photocopy on stupid sticker paper right?? It’s not like you’re actually going to stick it on something, like your locker, or your notebook.

Together 2nd press

Buying this is usually worth it for the Youth of Today track alone. But i’m interested in what kind of reserve aapjekoala has on this thing. If its anything like his other auctions then hes probably not making a sale. Not to someone in the US at least.

Warzone on Orange (again)

If you were thinking about getting the Warzone on orange Morgado posted last week but the 600 BIN scared you off before the auction ended early, then my boy thedanceofdays is giving you another chance. Dont pose.

Gorilla Biscuits 7″ on green marble.

By Dave | Published 09/07/2011

Whats the coolest looking piece of colored vinyl you own? It doesnt look as cool as this. This GB 7″ on green marble from aapjekoala is one of the cooler looking ones I’ve seen too. It looks like a piece of polished marble taken from the floor of a Roman villa. Another Revelation mystery pressing that nobody knows the amount pressed, but given its rarity I would guess its somewhere in the 300 range. The starting bid is pretty high but if you feel like being a baller then this is for you.

Civ LP on blue vinyl

Only a few hours left on this one from handsomephantom. Ghost written by Walter this is basically GB lp #2 (to me at least). I love this album. Any guesses how many are on blue? The Rev pressing info doesnt give much info.

I have never listened to Old Smoke

…and I don’t plan on starting now. But Emil said I should give this record “some love” here on VN. So I am obliging him. “Come on man, you should check it out, it’s actually pretty good, it’s like, Mike Judge doing Neil Young, but like… good.” Look, I got nothing against Neil Young, I don’t think I do at least. And truth be told, I do listen to plenty of chilled out folky stuff these days. But I have to defer back to the judgement of the 21 year old me here, and just say no. Hey, maybe you dig on this, or maybe you are a Rev completist. If you feel it, you feel it. Apparently handsomephantom felt it at one point.

GB 2fer

By Dave | Published 08/30/2011

rock4light has a few good picks up right now. Starting with the game changer that is the GB lp on purple. Ive never actually owned one of these and i can remember thinking $75 was too much for one 13 years ago. Guess I should have jumped at the chance back then.

Theres also a mis-titled copy of the 7″. Does this mean you will get it for cheap? Probably not, but it sure doesnt help his auction that the main photo is the BACK cover and its actually a 1st press not a 2nd press.

And finally an addendum to the post i made last week about the Vision LP, heres the very hard to find purple version. He calls it the tour press, which ive never heard before but it could very well be.
