Duncan - no, I purchased it used for $2.99 from a local vinyl shop. Though, it is what I would call mint.

Today would have been my muse's birthday..Capucine...and I'm watching "Walk on the wild side" (1962)...
A B&W film with a very young and yummy Jane Fonda and a mature Barbara Stanwyck playing Capucine's...lover(!!!!)
Mind you , I'm not a fan of Elmer Bernstein's work, but I think he NAILED it on this one....
Even considering getting the OST on LP...
BTW, I don't think this kind of movie would be played on TV ot cable or whatever, but it's a classic..and besides, Capucine looks DELICIOUS!!!! (my avatar is a still from that movie---I have a B&W still from that scene where she's holding a cat and looking at the camera in my bedroom...to my right...along with her autograph ---yes I'm a BIG FAN BOY)
She later went to do the 1st Pink Panther, "What's New Pussycat", Fellini's "Satyricon", etc....Culture has "erased" her cause you don't see her ANYWHERE, but she was one of a kind...
Happy Birthday , Capucine...wherever you are!!!

Dug this 1978 album out of my archive! Wow....totally brings back memories. Yes, that is an original GOS purchase from 1978....I was a young teenager then. The album sounds MINT...no scratches at all.

Listening to London Town by McCartney. Great album, and this one sounds excellent. My copy has some clicks here and there, not enough to detract. I love great music....where have we gone wrong these days with music???

That one has been on my "to-do" list for quite a while..I haven't spun it in AAAAGESSS!!!!! and I love it...BTW, the "London Town" video, although, quite risible, has a great Surround mix!
If anyone needs a good pair of bookshelf speakers, Crutchfield has a nice sale on Polk Audio TSi200 for $199 and free shipping within the US, I assume...that's a pretty darn good price for a pair of Polk speakers IMO.
Does anyone here have a good scan of the front and back of the Rhino DVD-Audio of Chicago? (R9-73841)
I can't seem to find a good photo for use in Foobar and I don't have a scanner to do my own scans...

Big news from u2.com this morning!
The band will be out on the road again this summer celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Joshua Tree and performing the album in full, every night. In July the tour brings them home to Croke Park in Dublin, 30 years after the original Joshua Tree Tour’s two memorable shows at the Dublin venue in June 1987.
U2: The Joshua Tree Tour 2017 kicks off in Vancouver on 12th May for a run of dates across North America, and includes U2’s first ever U.S. festival headline appearance at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival.
The tour then moves to Europe with the first stop in London on 8th July, finishing up in Brussels on 1st August and taking in their hometown show in Croke Park on 22nd July.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will provide support across Europe, with Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers and One Republic joining the tour through North America.
“It seems like we have come full circle from when The Joshua Tree songs were originally writtten, with global upheaval, extreme right wing politics and some fundamental human rights at risk,” reflects The Edge. “To celebrate the album - as these songs seem so relevant and prescient of these times too - we decided to do these shows, it feels right for now. We’re looking forward to it.”
“Recently I listened back to The Joshua Tree for the first time in nearly 30 years,” adds Bono. “It’s quite an opera. A lot of emotions which feel strangely current, love, loss, broken dreams, seeking oblivion, polarisation… all the greats... I’ve sung some of these songs a lot… but never all of them. I’m up for it, if our audience is as excited as we are… it’s gonna be a great night. Especially when we play at home. Croke Park.. it’s where the album was born, 30 years ago.”
Tickets for U2: The Joshua Tree Tour 2017 are on sale Monday, January 16th in Ireland, the UK and Europe and on Tuesday, January 17th in the US and Canada.
As usual, there is an exclusive priority presale for U2.com subscribers from Wednesday, January 11th (9am) through Friday, January 13th (5pm) local times. Tickets will be general admission on the floor and reserved seating in the stands. There will be a 4 ticket limit for subscriber purchases and a 6 ticket limit commencing with public sales. In North America, all floor tickets will be paperless unless otherwise noted.
Find all the dates below and keep an eye on our tour page for the latest ticket and package information. (Not a U2.com subscriber but interested in taking part in the presales? Subscription details here.)
Released to universal acclaim on March 9th 1987 and featuring hit singles “With Or Without You”,“I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” and “Where The Streets Have No Name”, The Joshua Tree went to No. 1 in Ireland and around the world selling in excess of 25 million copies and catapulting Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr “… from heroes to superstars” (Rolling Stone).
Time Magazine put U2 on its cover in April 1987, proclaiming them “Rock’s Hottest Ticket” in a defining year for the band that saw their arena dates roll into stadium shows to accommodate escalating demand - setting them on course to become one of the greatest live acts in the world today.
The 12 months that followed saw the band create now-iconic moments: the traffic-stopping Grammy Award-winning music video on the roof of a Los Angeles liquor store, winning a BRIT Award and two Grammys - including Album of the Year - their first of 22 received to date, distinguishing U2 as the most awarded rock band in Grammy history; as well as a triumphant return home with the original Joshua Tree Tour for four unforgettable shows in Belfast, Dublin and Cork in the summer of 1987.
In 1987 Hot Press called The Joshua Tree “their most influential album yet”. As for this tour? Noel Gallagher says, “It will be both a pleasure and an honour to play my part in what still remains the greatest show on earth.”

Today, I needed some stamps for postage and local post office still was offering the limited edition Elvis stamps. So, I bought 1 sheet to use and another sheet to preserve.
It was surreal for me tonight hearing snatches of Gimme Shelter used to cut to and from commercials in the football game.
I had just turned 16 when it came out Track 1 Side 1 on Let It Bleed.
I recall a discussion in a high school English class where a straight, clean-cut athlete referenced it as the ultimate expression of the teenage angst we all felt in those years of the Viet Nam war, the draft and Nixon.
To their credit, they used the actual Stones track.
I'm sure Jagger & Richards get paid, I wonder about Merry Clayton.
No great surprise they edited their loops, but those of us who grew up with it were all mentally filling in the gaps...
RAAAAPE!!! MURDERRRRR!!! It's just a shot away...
Of course, then I had to google it, and found it was rated one the top ten most over-used songs in TV and film.
Some humorous reaction on social media...
I don't feel old that often until stuff like this comes up, 47 years later.
"Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim. [Personally, a Ford Mustang] Those were different times..."
