OMG Vinyl… Because Records Sound Better is proudly powered by WordPress and WPDesigner.
Hey Mitch..this is awesome. Do you happen to know anything about a C-Clamp record I have. I think it’s a single for Saving Daylight and it has an engraving on it by a guy named Gregg Coffey. I’m just curious if it’s worth anything to anyone. I dont have a huge collection, but I do have somethings that I’d like to know the value of…. is there a good place for that online? Like some old Flaming Lips 7″ and the Silver Jon Spencer Orange vinyl…
Thanks!
Harley
Harley, check out this place for price archives:

I would just like to thank you for existing.
this is my favorite website. appeals to one of my favorite things in life: great music, with great packaging, on the greatest audio formats on the planet. THANK YOU
Hey,
Great site, I check this every day right after OMG posters. I’m just getting into vinyl and bought my first turntable today but I’m not sure if the turntable isn’t working or the record is warped. Are there message boards that you can point me to that I could post a question or read other questions?
Thanks
Brent
Hey Brent,
I would check out audiokarma or even vinylcollective to try and troubleshoot your problem. Do a search first, if you can’t find any relevant info, then start an account and ask some questions. Good luck!
Cheers.
heya a heads up, the live Mars Volta promo is back available on

Touch just put out BJ NIlsen’s Short Night on Vinyl! It’s on Boomkat and Forced Exposure.
Thanks, Jared. I was actually just working on a writeup for that release. Will post it tonight.
the james blackshaw album is finally in stock at aural. just got mine! thanks for bringing this album to my attention. ya’ll rule, keep it up.
Just wanted to voice my displeasure in the “Plain Records” reissues. I purchased Sailing the Seas of Cheese and Disoc Volante, both albums I love dearly, and the sound quality was ROTTEN. I’m no expert on record pressing, but my CD copies of these sound light years better than the vinyl reissues. Hopefully they get their act together; I like the titles they’re putting out but don’t feel like wasting my money on third rate vinyl noise. Thank you, dismounting from the soapbox now
Hey,
I just found out about your site and have added you to my RSS feeds. Thrill Jockey tweeted about you, so I thought I’d check it out.
It’s cool to find another Iowa-based blog about music (I’m in Cedar Rapids! I’m a rabid fan of vinyl as well. I talk about it quite a bit at my blog It’s Time To Play B-Sides at http://www.playbsides.com .
I do a recurring article where I write about my record purchases called “B-Sides in the Bins.” I also interview artists about their projects and records in this series as well.
Keep up the great work!
Mike Roeder
Love your site. I almost hate to share it with friends, though, because I don’t want them getting the preorder or limited releases you mention before I can get my hands on them.
Aural Exploits should be avoided at all costs. I placed a $150 order with them on august 24. the $50 record ‘von’ sigur ros was totally damaged, agaetis byrjun didn’t even have vinyl in the sleeve!BUBBLE WRAP no record, and they just totally left out a cure record. Not to mention it took 38 days, a few calls and some emails to even get the package. Then i had to hound them to get any kind of refund, which i got today oct 29th AWFUL!!! I will never under any circumstance order from them again. you have been warned.
Totally love the site. Thanks
Cortland, the only way we can really operate without bias is to give someone the benefit of the doubt unless we’ve had issues ourselves. I know Spencer and I have literally made over 20 orders each from AE over the years, all with no problems. I don’t doubt they have wronged some people, but until I experience it myself, I have to take it with a grain of salt.
