Recent additions, new and used!
June 28th, 2007
I’ve been busy lately, buying both new and used stuff. Here are a few of the used discs I’ve purchased recently:
- Huey Lewis and the News Sports: Japanese JVC pressing for the Canadian market with catalog number VK 41412. I did not know that this pressing existed until finding it in the bins. It looks like an early U.S. issue, so one might find the same disc with U.S. inserts.
- The Jacksons Triumph: Japanese CBS/Sony pressing for the Canadian market with catalog number EK 36424. The disc is identical to the original U.S. issue, just packaged with Canadian inserts.
- Billy Joel Piano Man: Japanese CBS/Sony pressing for the Canadian market with catalog number CK 32544. This one is in the same vein as the Jacksons disc above.
On the new front, I found a good sale on Universal Music Group “Gold” two-disc sets and picked up sets of Aerosmith, The Allman Brothers Band, John Coltrane, Cream, Neil Diamond, The Mamas & The Papas, The Moody Blues, Rush, Scorpions, Cat Stevens, Rod Stewart, Styx, Supertramp, and Tears for Fears.
I also recently obtained the SACD/NTSC DVD box of Genesis 1976-1982. Yeah! I first obtained the SACD/PAL DVD box and was frustrated with being unable to play the DVDs on my NTSC equipment. Then I bought the WEA CD/NTSC DVD set for the DVDs. Fortunately, I was able to finally get the SACD box with the NTSC DVDs.
