I need to pick up that Only Built for Cuban Linx reissue on purple vinyl. That's a definite collectors piece.

Isn't it funny how he didn't want footage of the front of the store so no one would know his spot?

I actually completely understand why he didn't want that spot revealed.Years ago I read about that big digging mission that took place in Brazil (before J-Rocc spoke of it in that vid) and how they did so much damage that the prices shot through the roof.
If this guy were to reveal this place it would be curtains for finding those gems.
Being a record guy I can tell you that when you get to know other diggers (and record store owners) a little bit... they begin to put you on to a lot of ill stuff (spots,records,samples etc),but as far as broadcasting that type of info... that's a no no.

i have about 2 crates mostly stuff i use to sample some of them i bought and some i picked out of my homies garage, his dad designed covers for capitol records and was also on the cover of the jackson 5 moving violation as the cop..after he passed away i only got stuff that i was gonna use at that moment but he will be moving soon so i am going to pick it all up, lots of heat lots of promo stuff..the stuff i usually buy are 70's prog rock or read the credits to see how much they use synths
. my personal faves are all my tangerine dream,vangelis kitaro rick wakeman early styx you catch my drift.

Is the quality difference between vinyl & CD really that noticeable?

Honestly, for the casual listener, no. If your someone who loves music, especially someone who listens to a wide range of music, vinyl is the way to go.

It really depends on your gear. If you're just using little computer speakers and a cheap amp the difference isn't that noticeable. But if you put some time and effort into your system vinyl blows away CD. It's not even close.

Download a looseless version of a song that you like, you'll notice the size of the mp3 is much larger and the quality is much better (e.g. you'll notice some instruments in an orchestra that you didn't notice in a regular mp3). Songs on vinyl are completely uncompressed, exactly what was recorded in the studio especially an 180gram pressing.
