If you go to the labels site sometimes they do have the price listed.

Good tip. I'll narrow it down to my interests and then price hunt via label sites. Thanks! :thmbsp:

I am well aware of this. My point is Good Vibrations is 3:30 and Heroes and Villains is 3:40. This is 7:10 of music on a format that holds about 10 minutes in a 12 inch format. Wouldn't a 45 of the same size be the same in terms of quality? I could just be mad because those are two of my favorite songs of all time. I don't have them on vinyl. And now that I have chance to get them on vinyl I cannot due to the speed.
No, the faster the disc moves, the more detail is recorded.
I'm going to pull numbers out of my backside here, but if 1 second of music covers 1mm of vinyl at 33.33 rpm, then at 45 rpm it will cover about 1.35mm and at 78 it will cover 2.34mm. That's a lot more bandwidth for the same timeframe. It's the exact same issue encountered with different tape speeds.

Go to strictlydiscs.com and they have pricing. Due to the last black Friday record store day where stores did preorders and there was nothing on the shelves the day of. They were required to sign a contract that they would only sell them day of and they also had a problem with stores marking them up. They can only sell for the record store day prices. So no preorders are supposed to be allowed if they do and get caught they lose the promotion from their store.

This is the gist I got from the stores I called. I think the key will to be show up early and be one of the first in line to get in.

I'd just assume they were easier to handle in the dark. A club is the last place I think of when I think of fidelity.

That would be an incorrect assumption on your part. The 12" 45s are among the best sounding records I own.

I was only able to get the Syd Barrett comp and The International Submarine Band. I know of only one store on Brooklyn that had the Pink Floyd that I really wanted but I think they sold out as soon as it opened. The revival of vinyl records is a double edged sword. It's good for audiophiles but it's also why there are now lines outside of record shops at 6:30am on RSD.

I purchased the Syd Barrett compilation, the Fall LP, and the Big Star test pressing edition LP. Spinning the Big Star right now; didn't get one of the original test pressings in my box. My local record store didn't get the Grinderman 12" singles nor the Television live double LP, or I would have bought them too.
