An Afternoon At The Crack House

[Triode Pete]

Coming up next week, I'll try to hit Infinity.

I hit Mr Cheapos on Jericho Turnpike, came away with nothing.  Mr Cheapo is anything but.........

They are hit and miss. They usually have a good selection of bootlegs for people who are into that, but you are right , they are not cheap, just local.

Give Infinty Records in Massapequa a try.  I have more constsiant luck there. They certainly aren't PREX, but they are a better than average local store.

Gene - I'm only < 1 mile from Infinity... Give me a call & come over for a listen...

Rich is catching the crack house bug. 

Way to go.

Nice find BTW.

Thanks Tom, following in the footsteps of the masters. 

And it ripped perfectly.

Somtimes the thrill of the hunt is almost as good as listening to the music itself.

Geez I only just saw this, thanks Pete. Never made it to Infinity anyway. Think I'll be back on LI after the 1st and will let you and others know.

Unfortunately, the weekday hours at Infinity are not very friendly to the working man. The only weeknight they are open pasr 5:30 is Thurs and then only until 7:00.
I never really noticed this before since I do most all of my shopping there on the weekend.

Of course this doesn't mean that a bunch of us cannot get together for a playdate.

OK, I had a doctor's appointment back in the old neighborhood, so after about a three month absence, I stopped in at the Crack House today. And of course I did not come away empty handed  :

Yeah,
I was disappointed that was all I could find yesterday.

Had to drop off some donations at the Crack House today (household things, not music) and of course while there I felt morally obligated to peruse the music section. Not a bad haul today, even if it was all digital and no vinyl.

Led Zeppelin ‎– Led Zeppelin IV
Label: Atlantic ‎– R1-535340
Format: Reissue, Remastered, 180 Gram
Country: USA & Canada
Released: 27 Oct 2014

Picked this up today at my first visit to Trax On Wax in Baltimore, MD. It goes with the releases of I, II & III I recently bought. The LZ IV from 1987 I bought with I thru III just couldn't hold it's own so todays purchase takes it place.

I almost bought the 1987 release of Physical Graffiti cut by Sam Feldman at Atlantic Studios, but it was priced at $43. Since my '87 LZ IV was just ok sounding I saw no reason to spend so much on PG.

Note: Rats, seems the 87 PG with sf's initials in the deadwax is a keeper, maybe I'll go back this week.

Gene, did you get the single LP or the deluxe version, which contains a second disc with the complete album except each track is some kind of alternate take?
