You Read That Correctly: Vinyl Records For Sale Here

Featured, Media, Turntabling Records, , ,

vinyl records for saleTurntabling is on the verge of getting much more active (and cool) with the addition of vinyl LPs for sale and related sundries. We introduced books and a random CD or two back a few months ago to test the response and the results were quite pleasing.

The majority of the music for sale here will be vinyl LPs, but some CDs will also make an appearance. Expect an interesting collection of sounds including Italian horror soundtracks, lounge and bossa nova, new wave/electronic, experimental, any quirky or offbeat stuff we can dig up.

If you have a band with vinyl releases, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with your wholesale prices and a web addy where we can listen to digita samples. Turntabling’s areas of interest are diverse, but we need to hear it before we agree to stock it.

Stay tuned, the first LP titles go up for sale this week before the Labor Day weekend.

Many thanks to everyone who came to the Turntabling.net table last night at the Horror Society Summer Slaughter film festival. It was excellent meeting everyone and many people walked away with sweet vinyl finds including Goblin’s Suspiria soundtrack and other goodies. A big thanks to Mitch and Jessica from the Horror Society for setting up the Turntabling booth in an excellent spot at the show and for continuing to provide us horror loving obsessives a way to meet, mingle and see the latest indie horror.

Experimenting with Twitter Plugin

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here'

Yes, we’ve gone over to the dark side here….but I do love the idea that you can update Twitter and the blog at the same time. I do love the simplicity of Twitter and actually thought it might replace blogging for a bit, but I see now the utter folly of that notion.

In other news, purchased the Criterion version of Border Radio, more on that after it arrives and I can review it. Two months ago I scored the once-rare vinyl LP soundtrack for the movie which features the Flesheaters, Divine Horsemen and Chris D. I love this movie and it’s even more fascinating now in light of the fact that the music business as depicted in Border Radio all at once no longer exists AND is the same as it ever was.

I love contradictions and dichotomies.

Zabriskie Point Soundtrack LP

album, , ,

zabriskie-point-lp

The film Zabriskie Point, directed by Michaelangelo Antonioni, starts off with a bang–a classroom full of radicals discussing whether or not violence is necessary as a form of political protest. The opposing views are montaged over Pink Floyd’s “Heart Beat, Pig Meat” and things only get more interesting from there.

If you haven’t seen the film, the real impact of the Zabriskie Point soundtrack is probably lost–some of this on its own sounds like hippie noodlings and acid-heads-only material, but in context the album is an excellent journey. The standout tracks on this are all by Pink Floyd, but don’t let that stop you from exploring the rest of this lovely piece of wax. On the whole, Antonioni’s Blow Up is far more listenable as a soundtrack record divorced from its’ film context, but that’s not to say Zabriskie Point isn’t good–but if you’ve seen the movie you’re in a better position to dig it.

Check out this totally misleading trailer–this is NOT an action movie or a euro-style sex romp…yet everything you see below is IN the movie, it’s just not quite in context. Great film, see it soonest.
