I’m not really sure why I’m bothering to write about this since I didn’t participate in Record Store Day this year, but I guess I just wanted to document the titles I found interesting despite not buying them. I did think about it, though, and almost got them. But I ultimately decided that playing records is kind of a pain because you have to keep getting up to flip them over or put a new one on, so unless I find some used gems for super cheap, or The Cure reissues Wish, I likely won’t be adding to my collection anytime soon. The new releases are $30 give or take, which is ridiculous, and now that Joe has a new job that pays less, I don’t like blowing money on non essentials.
Anyway, here are the two titles I was thinking about getting:
Electronic – Remix Mini Album
The Offspring – Greatest Hits
Interestingly enough, the record store I like and follow on Facebook still has multiple copies of the Electronic album available if I change my mind, but I doubt I will. I have no idea of the mixes are any good!
The Cure also had another picture disc release this year, this time for Pornography, but I already have a used copy of it, so I decided not to get it. My copy skips, it turns out, but I have the same album on CD too so whatever.
