What were the last RECORDS you bought

Don't remember that, but for some reason have a vivid memory of buying Blue Oyster Cult's first album. I was in a music store watching the NYC St Patrick Day parade in 1972. I also picked up, at the same time, a Moog instrumental album with a warning sticker that said "DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS IF YOU ARE ON ACID". Hah!
 
Great thread. I think my last were some LP's from Jason & The Scorchers and the Tail Gators, which were not available on CD in early 1986. Richard Hell & The Voidoids' Blank Generation was in there too. The CD's eventually appeared, but it took several years in the case of Jason & The Scorchers' first album.
 
The last vinyl I bought was, iirc, Metallica's black album back in 1991. Shifted over to cd after that (first cds were Tesla's "Psychotic Supper" and Skid Row's "Slave to the Grind"). I don't think there was another vinyl after the Metallica LP - might be wrong, but that's the last one I have a clear recollection of buying.

Pearl Jam's "Vitology" when it was released in 1994 (and I probably haven't listened to it since the week I bought it).
 
She & Him "Vol. 2"
The Replacements "I Will Dare" Single
Canned Heat "Living the Blues" 80's Reissue
Muddy Waters "I'm Ready"
A bunch of Kingston Trio
The Blues Brothers Soundtrack & Suitcase of Blues

I pretty much buy everything on vinyl, it's great now that they include a download code.
 
It's been a while, record shopping has taken a back seat to saving up for a new computer, but here's what I last purchased:

Ancestors - Of Sound Mind (2LP)
Ancestors - Neptune with Fire (LP)
Assemble Head in Sunburst Sound - Ekranoplan (LP)
ASG - Win Us Over (2LP)
