Wazoo's Record Sale

[Mike Reed]

Chris, you've got the Grieg/Litolff/Frank listed as mono, but the sleeve appears to have 'sterephonic' om it.

had this many moons ago and wouldn't mind revisiting it; if it's stereo.

OK Mike, I'll check, let you know

Mike,
You have a PM (in addition to impeccable taste, Sir - this is one of the best recordings ever made!)

Cheers
Chris

[The Grand Wazoo]

First of all, thanks a lot to those who've so generously donated to the Wazoo Land Grab - I've got room on the shelves for a few more already. Those should be on their way to you - please let me know when you all get them.



Now, to tempt some more lucky souls. I've relisted what's left below, with some very brief notes for the unititiated, along with suggested pricing.

As before, P+P is extra at cost, no more, but sometimes pennies less. All discs will be cleaned & placed in a bright shiny new anti-static inner sleeve (inside the original inner).

I'm also open to swaps as per Howard's swap shop - in particular, I'm looking for clean copies of the first Doors album & 'Let it Be' - don't know how many crap copies of those 2 I've had through my hands!!

As for the classical albums, I'm still open to offers (see original post for details).

Heres the list:

PRICE - FREE

David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust & the Spiders from Mars
Must be one of the best rock albums ever - consistantly brilliant platinum seller - no outer sleeve, so anyone buying more that 3 lp's can have it.



PRICE £2.50

Boris Grebenshikov - Radio Silence

Paul McCartney - Tug of War
Macca tinkers with Stevie Wonder, Ringo Starr, Carl Perkins and a tribute to Lennon

Ralph Towner - Works
Moody acoustic guitar. A little jazzy in the Pat Metheny sense. No amplifiers!

Chris has got some fab records for here sale, folks, at very keen prices, so why not treat yourself?

It's not often we get the opportunity to buy records in superb condition from an aficionado instead of flicking through piles of grubby, unloved, albums in Oxfam...

Marco.

Hello Chris, You have a PM

Chris

Damm! Wish I had known; I replaced most of my Doors' collection with remastered CD versions a few months ago and gave the vinyl away. Those that I have kept are American import versions of 'Waiting for the Sun' and 'Morrison Hotel'.

So, if you are not one of those who think that the CD is the spawn of the devil, might I recommend the following 24 bit 96KHz remasters from the original 2-track masters:

'The Doors', CD (1999), Elektra 7559-74007-2
'Strange Days', CD (1999), Eketra 7559-74014-2
'Waiting for the Sun', CD (1999), Elektra 7559-74024-2
'Morrison Hotel', CD (1999), Elektra 7559-75007-2
'L.A. Woman', CD (1999), Elektra 7559-75011-2.

I have neglected The Doors' 'Soft Parade', as I never thought it was particularly good.

Regards
Barry

[The Grand Wazoo]

Barry,
I've got the CD's but I like vinyl too!!
Actually, I don't have too many replications at all, but that's just one album I really must have on vinyl - don't know why.

Thanks for the thought though.
