FatHand Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 RECORD STORE DAY - HomeWas just listening to Craig Charles funk and soul show on listen again today and he mentioned this. I've not looked at it really but thought is sounded good and some folk on here might be interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkt Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Didn't anyone pick up any of the special Record Store Day releases from One-Up today? I got the two Sonic Youth split 7"s and Tom Waits live one Got down there before work so they hadnt been put on display so didnt get to have a browse to see what else I missed though...

french_disko Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 I managed to get both the sonic youth 7" singles and the Pavement "Live In Koln" LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kiosque Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 Got the Sonic Youth ones too...Thought One Up could have done a wee bit more to be honest, maybe some in-store gigs or a hook-up with Drummonds or something. Make it more of an event.No disrespect to them meant whatsoever as I don't know the ins and outsMaybe next time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 I thought this was mostly an american thing? Or started out that way? I'm probably wrong...I went in and bought some albums though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swingin' Ryan Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 One-Up was noted as one of the Top 5 record stores in the UK in NME this week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elizabeth Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 The Avalanche in Edinburgh proved severely disappointing with this; none of the CDs/7"s in or anything. ...and it was the only store participating. Nae joy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kiosque Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 What were the Sonic Youth 7" singles?I'l come clean and say that I don't actually have mine yet, getting them sent to me from doon south (I fucking hope so anyway)One split with Beck and one with Jay Reatard apparentlyDid go into One Up early afternoon though and they didn't have much of the special stuff left as far as I could see, only 500 copies of the Sonic Youth ones made it to the UK.Which makes me wonder if my 'mate' will 'lose them in the post' somehow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkt Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 What were the Sonic Youth 7" singles?split 7"s with Beck and Jay Reatard. Both limited to 2500 worldwide I believe.There was a Pavement live LP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
french_disko Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 The Pavement Live LP is called "Live in Koln". Limited to 2500 copies. It's got the same cover as the live LP that came with the pre-release of "brighten the corners (nicene credence edition" (sorry... did everyone not get that either???) - Buy Early Get Now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 i think some of the stuff didn't arrive in time, could be wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vega Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 i think some of the stuff didn't arrive in time, could be wrong thoughI spoke to one of the guys in Avalanche about this and he said as far as he as aware almost nothing got to the UK. Clearly, some stuff did make it. I really fancied the Jesus Lizard 9 x 7" boxset thing, anyone know if One-Up got one in? It appears to be Ebay fodder like everything else already. Even those Sonic Youth 7"s are going for a bit. Mince. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the JL 7" set was in One Up - it's in plastic sleeves & folds out so you can hang it on the wall. They were selling it at 35. "Ebay fodder" is exactly what all this is - the Beck / SY 7" is costing about 40 there and the Pavement LP is about 30 (both with postage.. roughly).

Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 well, selling off the limited stuff on ebay for massive markups might just help the mom 'n' pop record shops stay afloat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkt Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 It sucks that some people will have just bought the records to sell on ebay, and the people that really wanted the records might have missed out. I'd be rubbish at doing that as I can't part with things, although I've noticed a signed copy of Muse's Muscle Museum going for about 100 on ebay which I got for 99p. I might be tempted to part with that one day purely for the fact I only bought the single when I was 13 until I could afford the album. Rough Trade did a compilation tape called C09 which you can get for 2 (+1 postage) from the Rough Trade website with new tracks by Jarvis, Jeffrey Lewis, British Sea Power, The Decemberists etc. Loads of cool bands and the novelty of buying it on cassette too.

vega Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 I gave One-Up a phone and they still had it. Picked up the Magnolia Electric Co. 7" too. Awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Strong Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 is there not something a bit weird about the guys behind this saying "were dealing with real, live, physical, indie record stores", only to be sponsored by Warner Bros. Records? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Records?I dunno, it doesn't make the shops any less independent, I'd say it's a good sign too that the big players are still supporting the indie record stores, even if part of the reason is a PR exercise (but then what big sponsorship isn't, in part?).

mmd040 Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 As well as the Rough Trade cassette for 99p there was a special Domino Records 12" vinyl compilation released too, which I got from 1-UP on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 split 7"s with Beck and Jay Reatard. Both limited to 2500 worldwide I believe.Both in One Up downstairs today. At 5.99 each I'm not interested but perhaps others are.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vega Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Both in One Up downstairs today. At 5.99 each I'm not interested but perhaps others are....What?! I asked the chap at the counter whether they had any left and he said they'd all gone. Ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfer_Rosa Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Anyone going to be trying to get stuff this year(though I'm guessing not if you live in Aberdeen)? The list Monorail posted up has quite a few tempting things so I'll probably try and get there before work if the queue isn't huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
