Picked up some used albums today at Half Priced Books and put my new acrylic platter on there.

Joe Jackson - Look Sharp!
John Lennon - Rock N' Roll
America - Greatest Hits
Alan Parsons Project - I Robot
Alan Parsons Project - Eye in the Sky
A-Train - Live at Humpfrees
A Very Special Christmas (Liked this one when I was a kid and I am building up my Christmas albums)

My favorite out of these are the Joe Jackson Album, which as some of you may remember, Look Sharp! is an album that consists of two 10" records, and used copies that are in good shape are expensive (upwards of $50), so mine isn't in the best shape, but it plays, and it was only $9. I also really like the John Lennon Rock n Roll album.

Also picked up Eat a Peach by the Allman Brothers the other day. Record is in great shape and only $15.

I went to Fry's in Houston the other day and picked up "Undertow" (Tool) and "FutureSex/LoveSounds" (JT) [for the wife]; they had decent prices on new vinyl but some of it was absurd.

Also, my Primus & The Chocolate Factory came on the Mail on Friday. Slipknot's new album should be arriving today.

Here's my pickups from this month:

First picture from Left to Right, Top to Bottom:

"This is All Yours" - alt-j
"An Awesome Wave" - alt-j
"Chulahoma" - The Black Keys (they had the picture disc but I've heard horror stories)
"Slow Hands" - Eric Clapton
"Ski Mask" - Islands
"Sgt Peppers Soundtrack" - Peter Frampton, Bee Gees, Steve Martin (never seen this before)
"And The War Came" - Shakey Graves
"Too Bad Jim" - R.L. Burnside (Vinyl Me, Please release)

"FutureSex/LoveSounds" - JT (for the wife)
"The Gray Chapter" - Slipknot
"Antics" - Interpol
"Primus & The Chocolate Factory" - Primus (brown vinyl)

Second picture:

"Forever Found" - Kan Wakan

Story on this one is Kan Wakan opened for the Arctic Monkeys last night in Houston, TX. I used to work the merch booth so I asked an old manager to hold me a copy of "AM"; needless to say, he held this instead and they were all sold out by the end of the show.
