Holiday LP hunt, limited but good

http://thisthatotherthing.wordpress.com/2009/11/30/lp-hunt-small-but-good/
So over the Thanksgiving break I was in Louisville and did some record hunting and I only came up with four this time.  I swear the prices on old LPs must be rising.  But they are four good ones I was happy to find.

• Rush -”Hold Your Fire”  – Their 2nd worst album, but now I have everything by them on LP through 1987
• Eagles – (Debut Album)
• Molly Hatchet – “Flirting With Disaster”
• Deep Purple – “Shades of Deep Purple”

Oh, and unable to find anymore early Bob Seger, I got “Beautiful Loser” on CD.  Good album, but a little too mellow.  It’s a sharp departure from it’s rockin’ predecessor, “Seven” my favorite album of his.

Record Buying Weekend Ahead

I’m going to Louisville this weekend to visit family…and that means it’s time to buy some records. I collect LPs and the pickings are very slim here in Terre Haute.  But when I go to Louisville, the sky’s the limit. It’s not a matter finding great stuff to buy, it’s a matter what I will choose to buy and will I be able to keep myself from spending too much money. I am hoping to fill in my Rush collection a little more. I currently have everything through Exit…Stage Left, plus Grace Under Pressure. I am looking for some more. I am also looking for any of the first three from Yes and any early Bob Seger minus Mongrel and Smokin’ OPs which I already have.
