Selling Vinyl on Turntabling

Turntabling does indeed sell vinyl records–rare vinyl, hard-to-find LPs, strange records, interesting and out-of-print albums, collector’s items and generally awesome records. A lot of extremely collectible records pass through my collection and wind up for sale at horror and sci-fi fan conventions, on the Turntabling Discogs.com shop, in my Etsy store (see the links in the righthand column) and elsewhere.

There are two reasons why people buy from Turntabling. One, I do pride myself on finding rare and obscure vinyl. I have interests that span a variety of genres including industrial music, electronic/experimental, dub, reggae, psych, spoken word, and new wave. I look for things I myself want to own, and often wind up with duplicates for one reason or another. One of those reasons is that I buy record collections (get in touch with me at jwallace242@gmail.com for more information).

But the most important thing you should know about Turntabling–the proceeds from all these record sales go to fund Vinyl Road Rage and the Turntabling site in general. When you buy from Turntabling, you’re supporting the site financially–that’s something that’s really important to me and I truly appreciate that support. Thank you to all those who buy vinyl and CDs from Turntabling on Etsy, Discogs, at the conventions and elsewhere. You are the reason why the site still exists!

Criminale: Rare Italian Soundtrack Music from the Flipper Vaults

This very limited edition CD/LP combo release features music from the Flipper library, and what a collection it is! Not a clunker in the bunch. This is Italian thriller/giallo/psycho funk music from some of Italy’s best film/television composers including Alessandro Alessandroni, Ugo Busoni, and the mighty Fabio Frizzi.

I strongly recommend this release on Penny Records. If you own even ONE Easy Tempo LP or are collecting Italian soundtracks, you owe it to yourself to check out both volumes of this series before they are gone for good.

Marshall McLuhan The Medium Is The Message

This wild, groundbreaking LP by Marshall McLuhan and company has been reissued and is now available in a new, shrink-wrapped edition which is limited to 1000 copies. This excerpt is only part of the journey you definitely should take if you’re into sound manipulation, experimental spoken word LPs and media theory. Truly amazing. The original version is quite rare, and the new edition features a gatefold sleeve, extra artwork and more. Recommended–get it while you can!!!



The Mood Mosiac Series

The Mood Mosaic is a GREAT series of CDs and LPs that feature groovy, funky tracks and some sexy cover art that for some vinyl collectors is the sole motivation for buying the picture disc versions of the albums. I’m a big fan of picture discs in general, and the artwork for these is fairly well done, albeit with a 60’s-era Playboy Mansion sensibility that won’t agree with everybody. The best picture disc of the bunch is the one for the release titled The Hashish Party, with its retro funky body paint motif.

The music on these is great. Any fan of the Easy Tempo series, 70s action movie funk soundtracks, Mystic Moods Orchestra, and soul grooves will find a lot to love with these releases. There are picture disc versions of some, but not all of the titles; you can still find them for sale online at places like Amazon and on Discogs.com. These were made between 1997 and 2011, and there are (at the time of this writing) 14 titles in all.

I’ve got quite a few of these, but alas, not for sale–personal collection titles only! I am looking to buy more of these, so if you have them for sale, do get in touch: jwallace242@gmail.com
