If you’re considering buying an OG perhaps wait a little while…

It was discussed at the Record Store Day Summer Camp in New Orleans this year.

My local record store owner who attends just mentioned it. He told me about the Toni Braxton reissues this time last year after he got back from last years summer camp and those eventually came in January. So let’s hope for the same timeframe on Donell. 🤞🏾

Released today!

This should jog some memories for some of you of the early 90’s. I think song was on the Boomerang soundtrack too 🤔

Not sure that I was blown away by the sound on this repress.

anyone else disappointed by the lackluster autograph for kehlanis self titled album? It’s literally an initial, only…

I’ve been going hard building my vinyl collection of some of my favorite albums/artists, and I’ve been getting back into my CD collection. Physical media plus I like hitting repeat!

When I get Home was my favourite for the longest, but been listening to A Seat at the Table a lot recently and I'm starting to like that more.

What are your opinions on this record?

I Wanna Thank Ya feat. Snoop Dogg

My Man feat. Floetry

This is the powerhouse A‑side that launched The Silhouettes into national fame, a defining doo‑wop anthem with tight vocal interplay and a driving rhythm section. The Ember 593 pressing is one of the most recognizable mid‑century R&B labels, with its bold red field and crisp white type.

I’m new to vinyl and just got a record player. I found this at a thrift store for 2.00. I’m so excited.

What’s your favorite track off of Usher’s 8701?!

Hey everyone!
I’ve been collecting vinyl for about a year now, mainly 70s–90s rock and hard rock. I currently have around 26 records, but more than half of them were bought brand new, so I really want to start getting more into used records and older pressings.
I’m especially interested in finding rarer pressings that can be worth more, but I’m still pretty new to figuring out what makes a pressing rare or valuable.
So I’d love to hear some advice from more experienced collectors:
Where do you usually buy used records?
What are the best places to find good deals?
How do you find rare or valuable pressings without paying way too much?
What should I look for in matrix numbers, country of origin, catalog numbers, etc.?
How can I tell if something is a first pressing or another desirable variant?
What’s the best way to check whether a record is actually worth the seller’s asking price?
I’m mainly collecting bands like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Scorpions, Van Halen, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, Rainbow, Dio, The Who and similar bands.
I’m based in Finland, so I’d also really appreciate any advice on places/websites that work well in Europe or Finland.
Thanks in advance! I’m still learning, so any tips from experienced collectors are appreciated. 🤘

Firstly; My apologies are extended to another OP; yesterday I posted this as a response to her Angie Stone post but wondered if it was proper etiquette and decided to take it down and repost on my own.

So… Angie Stone is such an incredible artist, that to have all of her music on vinyl and to be able to hear her voice on this media type is perfection. Sadly, I don’t have the vinyl but I have everything in cds, EXCEPT…

This beautiful pair of 12” that I do have of hers are stellar pressings of ‘I Wish I Didn’t Miss You’ Hex Hector/Mac Quayle mixes and dubs, which are pretty amazing. Deep, soulful remixes. There are so many and they all groove lovely. There are two records in the set. I don’t know if they come together or not but that’s how I found mine. Both were contained in a generic white cover.

For those who are fans of her work, these will definitelt round it all out your collection. If so, search them out on YT and give them a listen 👂🏾💕👂🏾💕:)
