Laaz Rockit - Know Your Enemy (saw them in '87 locally, they were great, or so I think - it's been 35 years!)
Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss (oddly enough missing from my collection)
Blue Oyster Cult - Fire of Unkown Origin (can never have enough BOC)
Billy Gibbons - Perfectamundo (I really like his other 2 solo outings of recent)
Jeff Buckley - Sketches for my Sweetheart the Drunk (finally!)
And..
Curtis Mayfield's Superfly, which is a fantastic alnum.
Fire Of Unknown Origin - absolute classic!

Strolling through a sweet little Shropshire village called Much Wenlock today and stumbled across a used book shop that had a load of used vinyl tucked in the back. I snagged a perfect, first pressing of GUP for £15. It looks brand new and unplayed - lovely. I used to own it on cassette back in the day and CD since, but this is the first time I've had it on vinyl.

My mate's a vinyl nut and was there a couple of weeks ago. I wonder if he found it too? He'll be upset if not. I'll possibly not mention it  ;D

Dream Theater - A View From the Top of the World
Yes - Close to the Edge   another album I've never owned on vinyl. This is the 2012 reissue and from research one of the best.

John Coltrane's Blue Train, Tone Poet, Bluenote release, absolotely breathtaking issue this. New Pink Floyd Animals mix, let's see how that sounds.

AiC's Dirt is in, sounds good. Would have liked a gatefold but hey, it sounds good, I'll settle for that.
