Turntabling $5 Bargain Bin Vinyl Record Sale

UPDATE: This sale is now closed.
This is our newest feature at Turntbling; every good record seller should have a discount bin of vinyl records to offset the crazy, ultra-rare vinyl finds that collectors lust after. This is the Turntabling version, which I will be posting regularly with updates and additions.

Most of the vinyl in the $5 bin is first-come, first served only as there are only one each per title. If it’s available, you’ll be able to purchase and pay for it. If not, the system won’t let you check out–it will show the item as sold out instead, so there’s no worry about paying for something that isn’t actually available.

The bargain bin is one of the best things about buying vinyl–it lets you take chances on sounds  you’d never pay full price for otherwise and make all sorts of amazing new discoveries.

We kick things off this time with a nice little selection of obscure and not-so-obscure titles…good luck and happy hunting.

All titles are at least in Good condition or better, but it should be known that in many cases these records are passing from one music lover to another–they have been played, not collected and the intent of the discount bin is to encourage new musical obsessions rather than feed the “mint condition, never played” collector’s addiction.

Culture Shock by Chain Reaction. An album that screams 80s until you go completely stone, cold deaf. If you spot someone in a beret and trenchcoat on an album cover, it MUST be from the 80s. It’s some kind of law. Five dollars is a bargain–just LOOK at that beret!







A Secret Wish by Propaganda. Nice abstract cover, letting you know this bunch went to art college, or at least wanted to. Instead they wound up on vinyl. A fiver gets you the goods.






Hazel O’Connor is probably best known for her new wave antics in the fun Breaking Glass movie produced by Dodi Fayed (yes, THAT Dodi Fayed) back in the new wavey 80s. Her D.H. Lawrence references might confuse someone looking for robots and UFOs after Breaking Glass, but don’t let that stop you from totally digging on this other side of Hazel O’Connor on her Sons and Lovers LP. Is five dollars really too much to pay? She’s wearing a TIE!






What was it about new wave bands? Some of them seemed to choose names that seemed to doom them from the start. Whatever you think about the actual MUSIC of Invisible Zoo on this self-titled new wave/power pop EP, the name of the band in hindsight…well, wait a second. What about A Flock of Seagulls? Or Pink Military? Never mind, it’s five bucks for all the power pop love you can take.






George Carlin, we miss you! This album, A Place For My Stuff, has some of his CLASSIC routines. Love this one. Five bucks makes George smile from the other side. Wherever that is.






OK, we admit a certain soft spot for Culture Club era pop tunes. For anyone who read Take It Like A Man, the Boy George bio, Haysi Fantayzee is a familiar name. This is the 12-inch single for Shiny Shiny, the apex (or nadir, depending on your point of view) of that whole scene. If you spend five bucks on this one, you’ll be enshrined the Hall of George forever. And that’s a good thing.






There are more bargain bin vinyl sales coming soon. This is just the beginning! I have TONS of this stuff, but can only post it up so fast. Stay tuned for more, vinyl lovers. Five bucks apiece!

Special Prices Available for Vinyl for Sale by Turntabling at Discogs.com

In case you didn’t already know, Turntabling is selling vinyl at Discogs.com including plenty of rarities and hard-to-find titles like the original Day of the Dead soundtrack, Dawn of the Dead and much more. There are currently nearly 100 vinyl and CD titles listed for sale there.

Here’s the rub: Turntabling readers get a special discount (varies by title) when ordering via Discogs.com. It’s the sort of thing I do on an order-by-order basis, so there is not a specific % off type discount. It varies by title as some of them get quite pricey there due to rarity, difficulty to find, etc.

You can get the Turntabling discount by friending me on Facebook, and sending me a Facebook message letting me know what titles you are interested in buying. I will send you a reply with the discounted price and instructions on how to pay (via Paypal only).

Turntabling.net readers, please DISREGARD the Discogs.com prices–if you message me on Facebook, you will get a discount on the titles you mention. It’s as easy as that!

The prices on Discogs.com are NOT my “friend” prices. And anyone who reads Turntabling.net and friends me on Facebook is definitely worthy of friend prices…

Why not take a look at my rare vinyl inventory on Discogs.com, then hop over to Facebook and friend me there, and send me a message on any vinyl you’d like to purchase? I’ll shoot you back a discounted price and we can get things rolling.

As always, thanks for reading and have fun browsing the inventory. There is more being added daily.

Legendary Pink Dots All The King’s Men Double LP

There’s a certain type of person who becomes a serious fan of the Legendary Pink Dots. For starters, the band is insanely prolific  and it’s difficult to keep up with them. But doing so has its rewards–even if you lose touch with LPD for a while you’ll have fun catching up.

That’s what’s been happening at Turntabling lately–the last LPD purchase prior to this was Hallway of the Gods, so there is a definite gap that needs closing. All The King’s Men has some strange sonic connectivity on this record to the Liquid Sky soundtrack (that movie has been on the player a lot lately), and some Windowlicker-period Aphex Twin (however brief) and above all, it still sounds like the same LPD you know and love. The arrangements are a bit more sparse and minimal in places on this record, but to good effect.

All The King’s Men is a double LP and fits nicely in the LPD canon somewhere (sonically speaking) between the Malachai albums and Hallway of the Gods. That said there’s a more modern sensibility to this record–the group isn’t content to use the same old studio gear and keep re-tweezing the same old synth patches again and again. There’s plenty of evidence that the group’s sound has kept up with the times, at least to these ears.

All the King’s Men is a very solid effort by the LPD camp who could arguably just sit on their laurels after all these years and issue compilations, outtakes and other bits and pieces…but they refuse to and we are all the better for it. SO glad to catch up with them now. This is NOT a new record–it came out in 2004–but it sounds new and fresh ’round here because it’s been so long.

Have a look at a live version of The Brightest Star from this album at the end of the post…if you’re in any way inclined toward LPD, this one’s a no-brainer.

And yes, Turntabling has a single lovely copy of the Legendary Pink Dots All The King’s Men double vinyl album. It’s in near mint condition and the cover shows some minor wear in the lower right corner. This is the ROIR edition of the album.

The Story of Star Wars Return of the Jedi LP Plus Booklet

By Joe Wallace

The Story of Star Wars series on vinyl record featured dramatizations of the movie, and with members of the original cast to boot. Mark Hamill, Billy Dee Williams, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, and the best-known evil villain voice in the universe James Earl Jones as you-kn0w-who.

Let’s face it–there are three kinds of people out there who would want The Story of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. The rabid just-can’t-get-enough Star Wars collector, the vinyl junkie who also loves Star Wars, and then there’s the DJ dying for something new to throw into the mix.

True confession time–at a gig as DJ Paisley Babylon, I once mashed up the Suspiria soundtrack by Goblin with The

Story of Star Wars, much to the utter horror of some die-hards in the audience. That’s me hooked on the Star Wars vinyl for sure…the reaction I got from some people when I told them about this was a combination of loathing, disgust, and what I think was sneaking admiration for having the guts to even THINK about doing it.

This album originally included a 16-page souvenir booklet to enhance the value of the package–and the copy offered for sale here at Turntabling DOES INCLUDE that booklet, which is in great shape. The entire package is here–the album, the booklet, the original cast voices…this is a pretty sweet score or gift for a die-hard Star Wars lover. And as a sample-a-delic way to spice up a DJ set? We can’t recommend it enough–what fun!

There is ONE COPY of this available from Turntabling, the first person to order it gets it. The Story of Star Wars Return of the Jedi is a vinyl LP in very good++ condition. The vinyl is wonderful, with a few surface marks that don’t affect playback.  I will ship this item overseas, but depending on shipping destination your postage may be extra–I’ll bill you for any extra shipping required or refund any excess where appropriate.
