I haven't bought any vinyl from a charity shop. I rarely see LPs in them. Usually it's "the pope in the phoenix park" ect...I know oxfam on georges st. has plenty. I just have this idea that the records are going to be in a shit state and I can't stand noisy, crackley vinyl.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

I generally don't bother with oxfam,too many beat up records priced at book price. Vincents seems to be the better one to find stuff in. But vinyl is becoming increasingly uncommon.

So that's most vinyl these days, second hand or new.

The stuff I've picked up over the years tends to be well cared for. Usualy I'm digging out classical records which probably have only been played a few times. The Stockhausen one I mentioned above must have been only played once, it was immaculate. I have visions of some oul fella thinking it's something nice like Brahms and being confronted with all that noise.

Years ago when I used to buy second hand vinyl in Freebird, they'd hand it to me, to see if I was happy with its condition. And I'd always take a look at both sides, looking for scratches, flipping it over in a very casual yet studied manner.... but I wasn't really looking at all. A bit like when some waiter asks you to try the wine before he pours it for the table, and you always take a slurp blankly and go - that's grand yeah thanks

 

[travispickle]

Aww jazes I have been wanting a drum set for years..I hope I'm not too late getting my shout in

I'm in two minds, I'll either donate/give it away or I might consider putting it up on Adverts to see if I can sell it. I have a few other bits to go with it too; a couple of other snares etc.
It's a Sonar kit. Nice one too.

I remember being in a restaurant one time where they offered us sip of the wine and we said "no, that's ok" because we were sure it would be fine then the wine turned out to be some manky rosé sparkiling shit so I never made that mistake again

Amazing. Worth it for the cover alone.

The Who - The ultimate collection
The Libertines - Up the bracket (it also had the 2nd album in the case)
Cream - Disreali Gears deluxe (only the first disc in it)

Speaking of. I'm unloading a load of cds because I'll be moving house in the next while. I'll post a list up in the next while and see if anyone wants any.

Remember I said I'd pop up a list of CDs that I had to give away before moving house? Well, I never got around to it. I ended up giving 2 boxes of cds to the St Vincent De Paul shop in Blanchardstown Village if anyone wants them. There's stuff there by the Go Betweens, Mogwai, Vampire Weekend and many more. Sorry I didn't post up here, just never got around to it in all the madness.

I also donated a surround sound speaker system for a playstation 2.

Only 3 or 4 months before this article from 2010 is up to date:

Shiny Shiny: A Future History of the CD Revival

Cassettes are coming back as a viable alternative to digital releases. Will CDs ever be romanticized as well?

(some fun terms in there that didn't happen or seem hopelessly dated now)

and it may indeed be happening, in a way, a very Korean way I guess

In a digital age, why are CD sales flourishing in Korea?

With the advent of MP3 players, smartphones and online music streaming services, CD sales have steadily been declining on a global scale. But not in Korea. According to the “Hanteo Global K-Pop Report: 2021 Semi-annual Summary” released last ...
