Just got In A Glass House, which is my first ever GG purchase.

 

Enjoying this much right now, even though I've been listening to punky 80s/90s alt rock all day.

I can't get a copy of Civilian for a decent price.

 

this is how I feel about so many less than mainstream albums.

 

Very annoying at times to try to get into a sub-genre or new band when all of their most acclaimed albums are overpriced.

ooh do i have a collectors item on my hands? I have it on CD AND Vinyl :)

Why you little bitch! :rage:

I have 2 and this album is very under rated ( Bobby).

 

Never clicked with me like their other albums did

 

I will say, it isnt a bad album, I dont think they really made a bad album, just one that I would not listen to again for a while.

The amount of people that tell me that, I might as well change it at this point!

I have 'em all except for Interview (which I think was borrowed and never returned).

The hardest one to find was In a Glass House (w/cool translucent cover insert), although the debut was also pretty rare.

Paid 2.99 for Civilian at the local department store in the mid-80s. They had a whole batch of 'em - they even had a few GG 8 tracks in their "sale bin"!

Paid 15$ for a lame-looking Italian pressing of the debut. Damn good record though.

Also found this somewhere along the way. Cool compilation, bizarro cover:

They were strangely popular in Eastern Canada, so it was pretty easy to find their records in record stores or 2nd-hand places. I think I paid 25 cents for Acquiring the Taste, and 1$ for Three Friends! :o

I remember that album Giant Steps was the only place you could find the song "The Power and The Glory"

You are correct, sir! I'd forgotten about that forgettable track!
