Today I bought this record, since I have been starting to explore Pink Floyd and their solo stuff. I can also say that I was on this tour, great tour!

Why did you buy more than one copy of Sheer Heart Attack? It makes me wonder if one is for show and the other is for playing. If so, I can understand the ideology behind that, but I do not agree with it. Records were made to be played and cherished, not hoarded. If you aren't using one, sell it or pass it on. Odds are somebody else will love it too. If that isn't why you bought two, then I apologize, but I'd really like to know why you did.

First of, I am a collector, not just a listener, so I want all the different pressings. And second, a first UK pressing and a first Japanese pressing can sound very different. Japanese pressings sound most of the cases very nice. And I bought the UK pressing for 3 reasons.

 

1. I am a collector, like I said

2. It is the first original pressing

3. I like to compare the UK original pressing with the Japanese pressing.

Queen records are hard to come by in many places (like here). I understand the appeal of collecting records, but sadly I don't agree with it. I feel lucky to have A copy of SHA on vinyl.

You probably have a very different outlook on life. Music is a pleasure and a joy and a source of comfort for me. I research the best editions and best value for money. Some bands I replace copies of albums for deluxe editions but rarely keep every edition. I pass them on to friends who would like them instead.

 

But my interest in music spans many genres and dozens of bands have my rabid enthusiasm so if I approached collecting like Zumbi I'd need a whole village to store everything.

A great pro-tip!

 

I guess it's nice that this is what Zumbi does for a hobby, but he's got his way of consuming music and I've got mine. And quite frankly, I find I'd rather spend money on a much eclectic collection ranging many formats, bands, genres, etc. than multiple copies/pressings of the same album.

I misspoke here. Said I don't agree with collecting records. This is false. What I'm not so much a fan of is collecting editions for the purpose of collection over listening to and enjoying music. I think your point still stands, and I suppose it isn't my place to tell anyone else to change the nature of their favorite hobby, but I did want to clarify for the sake of posterity. I myself collect records, but I shoot for good deals on cheap things (except in very certain scenarios) because I like to get more bang for my buck as far as exploring music.

 

I think really what made me respond in the first place was my inner Queen fan being very annoyed how hard it is for me to find any Queen records while someone else has multiple copies of them for reasons I just don't agree with. Or, in the words of Freddie, "Jealousy, you got me somehow..."

 

Sorry. I still don't agree, but I'll keep my mouth shut about it.

Some of these I've had on order for a while now. The first two albums are pre-orders, and the 2nd/3rd albums are sort of a late "birthday" present.

 

Full of Hell - Trumpeting Ecstasy (vinyl)

Oxbow - Thin Black Duke (vinyl)

Full of Hell & Merzbow - Full of Hell & Merzbow (vinyl)

Sunn O))) - 2017.3.17, Knockdown Center, Maspeth, NY, NYC (digital)

 

Wouldn't be surprised I'll add the new ENDON album by the end of this week as it's been teased that pre-orders for it will happen soon.

 

I'm skipping RSD this year. There's 2 releases I like but neither of which I "need" tbh.
