We have got a ton of new used vinyl in the past week. Hundreds of great titles. Classic rock, some great jazz, a bit of reggae, pop... you name it. As per usual, I won't list the used titles as it's pointless (I can't order more in when they sell out), but it's safe to say that there should be something for any vinyl lover. It's selling super fast, however, so pop in soon!

As for new vinyl, I brought in a bunch of Tom Waits and Dead Kennedys and it's on the floor very reasonably priced. A few other artists also came in (see below).

Just a heads-up that we will be stocking the new double live Tom Waits LP when it is released. I think the price will be around C$24, give or take a buck. It's us$21.99 plus shipping from Tom Waits' own site so I think that's pretty competitive. I'm also trying to bring in his 180g 7LP box set (Orphans, essentially) by year-end. My source says it'll come out December-ish. No pricing details yet but when I know you'll know. Because it's a pricey title, let me know if it's something you're keen on so I have a rough idea of how many people are looking to grab one. No commitment. If you want to hear some of the new Waits, they're giving away tracks for free on his site.

Here are the vinyl titles I priced up yesterday:

Big Star - #1 Record and 3rd
Beck - Guero (2LP)
PJ Harvey - Peel Sessions
Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger
Guns 'N Roses - Appetite for Destruction (180g)

Tom Waits:
Swordfishtrombones
Real Gone
Alice
Blood Money
Mule Variations

Dead Kennedys:
Bedtime for Democracy
Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables
Plastic Surgery Disasters
Frankenchrist and Give Me Convenience... should be in in about a week. The DK records are very reasonably priced. I think I put them out at $12 or $13.
