Negative Approach EP hand colored cover

By Dave | Published 12/17/2011

Remember the Mullet Board debates on whether Negative Approach or Antidote was the best 7″ of all time? Those were the days. And its been about that long since I’ve seen one of these. The NA 7″ is known to have hand colored sleeves, most of which also have messages written inside. Every one ive ever seen is different. Some just have the logo colored, some just the eyes, some the hair. I have two myself, one with a green face and one with a fully colored cover. Rumors of 100 being colored persist but gearstrip says there are 33 of them. I dont know where he got that number. Bottom line is its cool as fuck. The starting price is a bit high but this is where the big dogz play.

The Fix – Jans Rooms / Touch & Go Tuesday

By Dave | Published 11/01/2011

The second Fix 7″ from rickyball. Touch and Go really was into red construction paper back in the day weren’t they? Maybe Dave Stimson robbed a grade school art class for material to print on.

Negative Approach 1st press – Touch And Go Tuesday

By Dave | Published 11/01/2011

Another fine Touch & Go release from rickyball. This time its the best of the lot. The Negative Approach s/t 7″ 1st pressing with black labels. This is in my top 3 7″s for old hardcore along with Antidote and MT Filler. There is pretty much nothing cooler than owning one of these (except maybe a colored in cover or rejected test).

On the flip side i cant think of anything worse than the reissue of this 7″ as seen here from recordgraveyard.

Worst cover art ever? Wait no how about this?

The Fix – Vengeance on Touch & Go Tuesday

By Dave | Published 11/01/2011

Heres the other big boy of Touch & Go Tuesday from rickyball. This Fix “Vengeance” 7″ was one of 200 pressed but it goes for more than Sex Drive (100 pressed, see below) which doesnt make much sense to me. Sure it’s a better record but ill never own it so i dont really care in the long run.
However one time I was supposed to own this record. I was buying a large group of upper tier hardcore records from Ryan Richardson on a payment plan, (The Dicks – Hate The Police, Big Boys – Frat Cars, Fix – Vengeance among others) and got down to the last payment for the records when someone found out I was supposed to get this record for $750 and offered more behind my back to buy it. Lesson here – don’t tell dudes with no morals about your record dealings.

Necros – Sex Drive for Touch & Go Tuesday?

By Dave | Published 11/01/2011

Im dubbing this Touch and Go Tuesday. And to kicked it of here is one of the rarest and most sought after hardcore records. rickyball has available here a Sex Drive 7″. Only 100 of these were made in 1981 on Touch and Go. It never comes up for sale and nowadays hits the low to mid 4 figures when it does. The record itself actually sucks and is barely listenable, but theres only 100 of them so who cares its rare right? If this goes for under $2000 ill be surprised.

Touch And Go (And Dischord)

By b. murphy | Published 06/22/2011

Some more heavy hitters from pterosonus. These are some classic records from Touch And Go Records. You know you can’t go wrong with the Negative Approach EP. First press, black ink labels, limited to 1000. Very hot. Check Kyle’s seekingthesimple for more relevant pics (he is also selling vinyl now too, check his list).

And then there is the Necros EP. This was a split release on Touch And Go and Dischord Records. Imagine having both the labels on your dust sleeve. I can’t even imagine what the modern day equivalent would be. Maybe Schism / … for the 80s? I don’t think it can be done. I.Q. 32. Pretty sure this one is first press, green labels and all. Get into it.

Fix Vengeance test press

By cooch | Published 05/17/2011

Here’s a real corker from seller hypstr66…

People have been discussing the authenticity of this record on a message board I read, and the consensus seems to be a solid “not sure”. Some third party experts have been called to the situation, so I guess we’ll have to wait and see where this one goes. If it’s real, expect this one to hit a pretty astronomical price.

BIN’d Down

By cooch | Published 04/08/2011

BIN-priced first press copy of NA’s lp (with free shipping!) courtesy of my favorite seller of hardcore records and vintage porno mags, mr. krypt-of-kool. I never really paid much attention to the cover on this LP until recently, and I realized it might be one of the worst record covers of all time.

Vengeance again

By cooch | Published 03/09/2011

Another top shelf barnstormer from what77fuk. I can’t believe this is on ebay AGAIN, but I feel like I’m obligated to post it every time it shows up. Go ahead…

Die Cruisin’

By cooch | Published 02/26/2011

SIDE STORY: A few years ago there was a brief period where any high end punk records on ebay were won by one of two bidders: lpman13 or romarocket. If you were after an auction these two were bidding on, forget it. Worse, if they were bidding against each other, it was world war three. Lpman13 ended up being some sort of investor type that flipped his purchases a few years later for big profits and dropped out of the game, but romarocket still pops up once in a while (and you can sample his fine Italian cooking if you’re ever in Portland, OR).

Anyways, to get back on track here… I’ve posted this LP here before, but I’ve never heard the story that Mr. rocket presents in his auction listing:

This was a mistake pressing on Touch and Go Records that was meant for the Butthole Surfers 12″ “Rembrandt Pussyhorse”..but obviously T&G sold a few instead of sending them all back to the plant. Around 1000 made but most were destroyed. Approximately 100–200 are around today.

I’ve heard the 100–200 figure before, but I also heard that they were made for the band to give out to friends, so who knows. Either way, this record smokes, so someone should buy it since I already have one.

Die Cruisin’

By cooch | Published 01/03/2011

I always thought it was a little weird that this LP existed, as Touch & Go didn’t do color vinyl pressings of any of their early records. I have to assume it was one of those deals where the plant just had some color around and they got pressed up in a rush or something, but who knows. I’ve heard as little as 200-300 were made, and many were given to friends. At any rate, this is one of the best American hardcore records ever made, and the little color vinyl quirk only adds to the package.

Vengeance the IVth

By cooch | Published 11/22/2010

Unfuckingbelievable, sk82dth has listed the FOURTH copy of Vengeance to be up on ebay this year! I don’t know where these things are coming from (well actually I do with the other three), but it’s pretty insane to think that these things used to pop up, at best, once every two years… and here we have four since this summer. Normally I don’t like posting the same records over and over, but this guy deserves it. Cool graffiti on the labels too.

$ Vengeance $

By cooch | Published 11/01/2010

More big baller action from Mr. creeper_ohio.

Again like the Necros 7″, it’s pretty wild that this is the THIRD copy of this record on ebay this year. I think prior to 2010, there were 3 copies listed over the past 5 years, if that. 200 pressed, and possibly the greatest American hardcore 7″ ever made, so expect this one to hit the $3 grand mark with ease.

$$$ex Drive

By cooch | Published 10/28/2010

Seller creeper_ohio is opening up the heavy artillery on the ‘bay…

It’s kinda crazy this record has come up twice this year, considering there are only 100 copies out there. This one’s nice too, complete with insert and looking VERY crisp in condition. So either get that credit card ready, or just sit back with some popcorn and watch the action unfold.

NA ep

By cooch | Published 10/11/2010

My buddy Jay from Providence is unloading some stuff, mostly of the powerpop and synthpunk variety (ie, stuff people here aren’t interested in), but he has this cheap first press copy of the NA ep up…

Looks like the vinyl isn’t in tip-top shape, but you get some sound clips to see what’s up, so if you’re not super anal about condition this might slip by pretty cheap. I’ll vouch for the quality of his grading, so if someone here wins this and isn’t happy with it, I’ll let you punch Morgado in the arm.
