Veg UNITED KINGDOM Created Fri 12th Oct '07 19:30 (GMT)Radiohead on Vinyl You know, it's amazing, but when I was working in the music industry during the change over from vinyl to CD, every artist I talk to said there was nothing that equalled the sound of a CD. I even begged some not to go the way of all the rest - but they did. Who would have known vinyl records would be the one item true music lovers would want now in the 21st century!? It's beyond belief. However, I agree the 33rpm vinyl record is far superior to CDs - I always have. The problem was, though, vinyl was expensive, and the CD format made it cheaper for musicians to mass-produce more albums/CDs as they could. In the long run the customer lost out. The experience of buying, taking home, opening, listening to, and holding a great piece of art in their hands is like none other. Will vinyl replace the CD? I doubt it, but it’s great to know there are 33rpm vinyl lovers out there. You can find a lot of Radiohead T-Shirts here, or go to W.A.S.T.E at the Radiohead site, or try eBay. Happy listening! :D [reply to this topic ]
Laura Stoneman - UK and Import Releases UNITED KINGDOM Created Fri 12th Oct '07 16:18 (GMT) Edited Fri 12th Oct '07 16:18 (GMT)Look what else is to come!! plus a little gig update....
Good Afternoon to you all. Well what a week for gigs it has been. On Tuesday, my wonderful & esteemed colleague Sophie & I travelled into London and paid a visit to Brixton Academy to see Editors who were brilliant, the only downside was the 8ft tall (OK maybe that's an exaggeration) people who thought it was a good idea to come and stand in front of us and constantly block our view or the people who paid money to come and see a band and talked all the way through it. AAAARGH. And at 1pm this afternoon, I arrived back at EIL Towers following a journey back from Birmingham, where I travelled to yesterday afternoon to go to see my beloved Guillemots (the 5th time in a year) with the awesome City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra at the newly re-opened Town Hall (see picture on the right). What an amazing experience this was; bring on next years' tour!! CELINE DION Taking Chances
Celine Dion is back! With 180 million career sales worldwide, countless Grammys and 2 Academy Awards, the Canadian superdiva returns in full force this November with her first new English-speaking album in years. 'Taking Chances' confirms Celine's vocal supremacy is as breathtaking and effortless as ever. The album reveals a change of direction with an edgier, guitar-driven sound, balancing epic pop ballads and soaring showstoppers with a more understated feel. 'Taking Chances' is bound to thrill her UK fans with such a dazzling return to form; it could also surprise and attract a new audience. The title track and lead single was written by Dave Stewart and Kara DioGuardi [Natasha Bedingfield, Kelly Clarkson, Pink, Gwen Stefani].

Richard Austin - UK Office UNITED KINGDOM Created Wed 10th Oct '07 08:50 (GMT) Edited Wed 10th Oct '07 08:50 (GMT)Reflections on a well spent youth :-) Led Zeppelin ?
Had to chuckle at that - or is it gloat ?
Many many years ago I actually bunked off school for the first & last time to head off for the great City of London. I spent most of the day going from place to place - it was a hunt, you see. There was something I had to track down as I'd left it a bit late.
I'd had a tip from a nice music journalist at a certain popular rock weekly newspaper (thanks !) that tickets for a certain band were being centralised that day before being returned to the main box office for the night of the gig(s). I finally tracked the centralisation point to a famous name record shop in Sloane Square.
Walked in through the haze of herbal cigarette smoke to see two rather long haired chaps at the counter & made my request...
Which night do you want ? OK
Cheap or dear seats ? Best
I then paid my £2.50 :-)
Four years later, I paid an exorbitant £7.50 and saw them again.
So, I was one of the other millions that DIDN'T put down for a Led Zeppelin ticket this year. Somehow, after paying £10 (about $20) to see six and a half hours of prime Led Zeppelin, the idea of paying megabucks for a thirty minute set by 3/4 of Led Zeppelin didn't have quite the same appeal to me. I smile smugly into my morning coffee ....

Nick London UNITED KINGDOM Created Wed 10th Oct '07 00:37 (GMT) Edited Wed 10th Oct '07 00:40 (GMT)a personal review - very pleased with this . . . one of the finer features of my old house mate was her appreciation for original film art and posters - from quirky Polish, to Jaws, to 2 great Saul Bass classics 'The Man with the Golden Arm' and 'Anatomy of a Murder'. My favourite however - and I think also hers, was the Steve Mcqueen Japanese Bullitt poster that we have here. She moved out about a year ago and our walls have missed those posters ever since. Now (not withholding thanks to those eil mail shots) I've stumbled across this and snapped it up with a smile! I Love it! The poster arrived in pretty much perfect condition with only a couple of very minor creases - barely showing it's age. And at a bargin price too - I'm sure to spend as much again on framing it. I'll enjoy this purchase more and more as it's not only rare and hugely cool (with the head shot, the other stills and the striking red Japanese text), it'll always remind me of the pretty cool housemate who bought this first.[reply to this topic ]
Re: STEVE McQUEEN Bullitt (Extremely rare Japanese 20" x 29" full
colour poster for the film featuring a superb head shot of Steve
McQueen in combination with other stills & all text in Japanese. This
poster was never commercially available & was obtained from a
Japanese record company executive. The poster itself is in superb
condition & free from any rips or tears - Would look incredible
framed!) View this product
Julian Thomas - UK Office UNITED KINGDOM Created Tue 9th Oct '07 18:55 (GMT)Wet, wild and coming soon to a web site near you Today, I have mostly been buying CDs. In fact I have picked-up just over 10,000 of the circular little blighters. Now the real work begins, sorting, separating, researching, pricing and adding them to our stock selections so that you can browse to your hearts' content and, hopefully, bag some for yourselves. As ever, keep an eye on the latest arrivals over the course of the next week or so, and you should begin to see the results of today's strenuous wet-weather efforts.
In addition to the CDs I also did an interesting deal for some long out-of-print Oasis vinyl, including some of their promo-only releases. More will be revealed once I've been through all the boxes, but it's worth checking back in a day or two for some incredible bargains...keep watching this space.

Stephen Borkowski - UK Buyer UNITED KINGDOM Created Tue 9th Oct '07 17:29 (GMT)Led Zeppelin ticket for sale Only Joking!! If you, like myself were one of the unfortunate 20 million souls who registered for tickets for this gig only to have your hopes dashed, you may wish to remind yourself that like all the recent cash in reunions, the concert will no doubt be released on DVD in the near future. Then you can sit down in the comfort of your own home and listen to it in Dolby Digital at ear bleedingly loud volume (normally reserved for Motorhead albums). Alternatively buy the newly remastered Song Remains The Same and watch that instead![reply to this topic ]

Mark Evetts - UK Buyer UNITED KINGDOM Created Mon 8th Oct '07 16:09 (GMT)Control... The Anton Corbijn film sounds like the cinematic release of the year so far (unless some 'blockbuster' like Rocky 9 is your thing...).Telling the story of the legendary band
Joy Division and in particular focusing on the (short) life of vocalist Ian Curtis, Hollywood glitz it ain't.
This
review from the Guardian should help you to get off your sofa and down to your local picture house...
