American Pie - Don McLean. Has one of my all time favorite songs on it - Crossroads. A legendary album that is difficult to surpass. An OG UA 1971 pressing that’s been well loved but the vinyl still sounds amazing! #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky

Toys in the Attic - Aerosmith. Sometimes you just need some straight up 4/4 rock. I love Toys, it’s a terrific album from end to end. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #Aerosmith #vinylsky

Megadeth - Megadeth. Newest drop from Mustaine. First listen. Took forever to get here. This is the Bad Records liquid filled and splatter 2LP version. Sounds pretty clean so far, certainly quiet. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #Megadeth #vinylsky

Simply Streisand - Barbra Streisand. One of my favorite Barbra LPs. Full of classic songs with great arrangements. This is a 1967 Columbia Stereo press with the original booklet of Streisand’s discography. The booklet is rare. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky

Back to Broadway - Barbra Streisand. A rare early-90s LP pressed in Holland. Sounds good for one of the last of its kind in that era. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #BarbraStreisand #Broadway #vinylsky

More - Pink Floyd. An early 70s Odeon Japanese pressing on red wax. The best pressing of this album. Not only the quality of the pressing but the package is much nicer than its UK/US counterparts. A gatefold with a small attached booklet. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky

Lots of 90s music was pressed in Brazil, Argentina, Columbia. The quality can be hit or miss. But in some cases it might be the only place that album was pressed on vinyl. I have some Garth Brooks 90s LPs that were only pressed down there at time of release.

As someone in North America- UK, France, Germany and Japan. Rare 90s records can be found in Greece, but lots of counterfeits there as well. Shops in these countries tend to be solid. They also have lots of expats from all over the world so they have good imports as well as their native pressings.

My tips would be to only get hard to find or expensive LPs and you don’t want to ship or buy online. Make sure you can transport them safely home. It’s cheaper to use an extra luggage bag than ship them home. Make friends with the shop keeper! Having someone in country to find LPs for you is a plus!

Hounds of Love - Kate Bush. Legendary album. The Fish People purple vinyl repress from 2023. All of these 2023 represses sound outstanding. Mastered by Mr. Grundman. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #katebush #vinylsky

I’ve not posted my vinyl purchase wrap like I normally do. 146 LPs purchased this year. That does not break down boxsets, Ozzy set had 16 “albums”, so it’s more than that number. Ozzy was also the #1 in most acquired (including Sabbath). Good year. More than I thought. #vinyl #vinylsky

The Piper at the Gates of Dawn - The Pink Floyd. This is a French Pathe Marconi stereo repress from the 1980s. It’s usually my go to when I want to spin this full analogue. I don’t like spinning my early copies a lot. #nowspinning #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #PinkFloyd #vinylsky

Summertime Dream - Gordon Lightfoot. Last one for the night. One of my favorites from Gord and has quite possibly one of the best songs ever written. An OG Reprise 1976 pressing. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones - John Williams. There are very few legit pressings of this score. This comes from a boxset containing all 6 Lucas era films. John Williams work here is exceptional and other than Empire, his best SW score. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylsky

Aja - Steely Dan. One of the finest albums made in the 20th century. Exquisitely recorded, every note meticulously played, quite literally flawless. This is a 2018 repress that, like pretty much every Dan album, sounds great. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky

i/o - Peter Gabriel. Proof that genius never ages. Easily one of Peter’s best albums. And maybe my 2nd favorite of his. Just stellar work here. I prefer the “bright” mixes to the “dark” mixes. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #petergabriel #vinylsky

Who Believes in Angels? - Elton John. Elton’s most recent offering. It’s by and far his best work in years. Carlisle challenges him musically and it shows. This is the standard tri-color release. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #EltonJohn #vinylsky

Captain Fantastic - Elton. This is the sparkly 50th anniversary 2LP version on multi-color swirl vinyl. It’s a tremendous package and worth the price of admission. Especially if you love this amazing album. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #EltonJohn #vinylsky

Low - Bowie. Another fantastic LP from Bowie. Not everyone’s cup of tea but the B-Side is some of his most interesting work. I find myself spinning this more than his more commercial LPs. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #Bowie #vinylsky

Aladin Sane - Bowie. A great LP from Bowie. Always an interesting listen, no matter how many times I’ve heard it. This is an early 80s repress on RCA labels. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #Bowie #vinylsky

Emotion - Barbra Streisand. Sticking with the 80s. An album full of heavy hitters: Kim Carnes, Jim Steinman, Diane Warren and it goes on. It’s good to be Streisand. Make a call and the best people show up. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylcommunity #Streisand #vinylrecords #vinylsky

4 - Foreigner. Mick wanted to shake things up so he fired a bunch of guys, trimmed the band to 4 and then made one of the greatest LPs of the 1980s. Monster album. A 1981 OG pressing from Atlantic. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky

The Swell Season - Debut from the Irglova/Hansard duo. Some people were just made to sing together. Another gem of an LP. An Overcoat original pressing from 2006. Sounds terrific! #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky

Rhythm and Repose - Glen Hansard. A brilliant and hauntingly beautiful album from a brilliant Irishman. An original Anti pressing from 2012. Sounds amazing. Stunning actually. #vinyl #nowspinning #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylsky
