Looking for Frampton Comes Alive and the original three record Woodstock to confirm he is a true boomer.

I’m a boomer then, probably, does it count if I don’t have them anymore?
I used to have both of those, and about 4 meters (no idea how many vinyls that would be) of other goodies, but for some reason sold all my vinyls years ago, for 3000 euro. Now recollecting my old collection in CD format (can’t afford vinyls…)

I keep records in alphabetical order, even with classical and jazz mixed in. I decided that there were too many overlaps along the fringes. And where do the categories start and stop? Do reggae and country get their own categories, for example? I gave up trying to figure it out.

I too organize in alphabetical order, not separating different styles, but for some reason I keep Finnish and Swedish CD:s separate from the rest of the world…

It's a little strange having new copies. The old ones were quite scratched and worn.
I pretty much learned to play bass by spinning those and Led Zeppelin 2.

What pressing you had? Warner? And which are the new ones?

I have a first press UK Porky/Pecko Vertigo spiral of "Vol4" which is said to be the dog's belongings of that album, soundwise.
"Paranoid" is the 3rd pressing (spiral Vertigo).
I bought them in the early 90's from Black & White record shop, Helsinki.

This wasn't asked but my Sabbath vinyls:
20230731_150825.jpg


All UK originals (1st to 3rd pressings) except s/t (late 80's Holland pressing) and "Sabotage" (2009 Sanctuary w/a gatefold sleeve).
All on cd too and of some titles appear I have multiple copies (Sabotage on Warner and early Castle, Never Say Die on Warner and Vertigo etc.). Why? CD's are cheap and it's fun to compare the masterings. As they say nowadays the early cd versions sound the best. And how we ditched those cheap early Castle editions when they started to remaster the catalog...:roflmao:

We decided to put classical records in their own section by composer name.

Hey, if anybody wants to vote my track for a some kind of Spotify list you can do it from this link:
https://distrokid.com/spotlight/oman21/vote/

What does it "do" if the track gets there? I don't know, probably nothing at all. Just curious.
You can also vote the track against me, not offended by that. But I'm pretty sure it doesn't feature a non-reverse Thunderbird...

My brother in law bought the original Black Sabbath and Vol4 in the 70's, them gave them to me when I was 13 or so. I had bought Paranoid and Master of Reality used, so I guess they were original.
Just looked again and realized/remembered the "replacement" Black Sabbath" album I have is actually a really nice condition Warner pressing from the 70's (my wife bought it for me)
Paranoid is new: 2015 Sanctuary Records

Sure, it counts.

Why did you sell off the vinyl?
