Vinyl Me Please Essentials

[jamieanderson1968]

I heard you have a compilation of every good song ever done by anybody. Every great song by the Beach Boys. All the underground hits. All the Modern Lovers tracks. I heard you have a vinyl of every Niagara record on German import. I heard that you have a white label of every seminal Detroit techno hit - 1985, '86, '87. I heard that you have a CD compilation of every good '60s cut and another box set from the '70s.

I’m losing my edge.

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah could use a reissue. I’m assuming a large chunk of the subscribers might not like that album though.

It's a great album. I'd happily take it.

Probably not essential to too many people besides me, but 2001...The Moldy Peaches!

Lotta Moldy Peaches in Meet Me In The Bathroom I would be alright with that.

It's a shame it isn't the Rapture "Echoes" that would be a great pick IMHO

 

[Hollywood]

Beyond the add on cost, man keeping an international sub at like $52USD for something I can get for like $30CAD. My wife would flay me.

Well mine left me

I would be good with that one too but it’s another DFA release so I don’t now if they would go that route.

 

[Hollywood]

We don’t discuss the cost of records in our home or I would already be dead.

Smart man Keep it that way!

I am sorry to hear that.

I have not read the book.
But based on this playlist, 2002 Doves/The Last Broadcast [ @Joe Mac ] is in play.

I also see that the Hold Steady are mentioned in the book based on the playlist.
It won't be (2005) Separation Sunday - but it should be.

 

[Hollywood]

I am sorry to hear that.

Thanks man! But honestly it has been a long time coming! Vinyl was only a pretext for her departure.

So are Don’t Believe The Truth and Heathen Chemistry by Oasis…

…I would laugh so fucking hard if they put our later career oasis in essentials, and I’m a fan…

Don't put it past them.
If you recall, this is the same entity that decided Tennis was "Essential"

I would resub for one of those, lol

 

[Joe Mac]

I like them both, and actually the pressings out there in the wild at current are really good, but they’re not essential lol. As much as I love oasis only Definitely Maybe and the singles off Morning Glory are essential in a wider sense.

 

[Joe Mac]

So we have

Heathen Chemistry
Hotel California

What’s for 2005 in the shithouse selection?

Oh yeah, definitely agree that they aren't essential at all, but I don't think a lot of the VMP picks are essential (to me) and I'm a few years past being into a lot of the New York indie scene from the 00s, beyond what I already own and love anyway.

It’s a perfect 10 according to P4k.

I remember them touring with the National and everyone going in to see CYHSY and coming out being blown away by The National.

Pitchfork gave CYHSY a 9.0

 

[TenderLovingKiller®]

Pitchfork gave CYHSY a 9.0

My bad, I guess I thought it was higher because of the resounding hype around it at the time. I love that album too.
