The reason is that I have some spare space in a sort of wall-wardrobe, the shelves are fixed so...
Another choice would be to keep them temporary by a friend, but, you know, I am sure that the first day I will miss exactly that A. Hill record...
Searching for a bigger house I have at this very moment a storage problem with my records: lack of space. Do you think it would be safe to store my Mosaic lp sets horizontally for a while?
Befeore you start with irony: I need a bigger house for the boys, they are growning faster then my collection!
Come on Beri, Armstrong was the last of a long list , they didn't have any revenge desire about Pantani and Virenque. I don't think this would be different in case of Lance biking with Clinton.
I am an avid vinyl sniffer in dusty record shops, so, a part silicosis, most of the times it happens just the contrary: apparently great LP turned out weirdo
I presume that is the reason because they are still on the shelves!
FZ remastered, and often remixed, personally all his records in his personal studio for the latest cd versions. Original vinyl versions are often very different, like 'Over-Nite Sensation'. Zappa Records putted out three box sets of vinyl called 'The Old Masters', with the 'old master' digitally mastered. At those times a lot of people tought it was a good thing to have a digital master from the analog source to use for pressing an analog record!
It's a 'must have' if you are a guitarist, only guitar solos, a sort of 'Frank Zappa's version' of Dean Benedetti' recordings, obviously the sound quality is much better!
I am a Zappa's fanatic, so I would say that all his works are great. In order to be less fanatic, I say that the above suggestions are pretty correct. I will add some of his later records:
'Joe's Garage'
'The Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life'
'Make A Jazz Noise Here'
and the earlier 'Zappa In New York'.
A nice Zappa's record is 'King Kong' credited to JL Ponty. It's the only record of Ponty I like, I suspect because he 'plays the music of Frank Zappa'
Me too. I bought all of their 33 1/3 records before they started these 'no compromise' audiophile series at 45 RPM, and 50 $PM.
BTW they just reissue the Davis Prestige Set at 250 $

Sound quality couldn't be worse than CD version I own And you can have the only vinyl versions, AFIK, of the solo riverside records, or not?!!?
I say that at any price under 150 $, for a NM copy, would be a great catch.
LIVE 8 and this thread http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=17956 reminded me I have most of the Floyd's work on original pressing, included a rare mono first pressing of 'Saucerful of Secrets' , so... 'I will get a Pink Afternoon'
