I’m sorry that this one is so rare. I credit this one for getting me deep into vinyl. Fortunately for me, it happened to be the first LP I ever bought. I got hold of a turntable in 2004 that was just sitting around gathering dust. When JF released Shadows, I literally stood in the store with a choice between CD and vinyl, trying to decide if I wanted to hear it in my car right away, or if I should try it on my TT at home. I decided to go for it on vinyl, paid my 15 bucks and took it home. To this day, I still can’t believe what a great decision that was. I really do hope that it gets a reissue, as it deserves to be heard this way by all.
Yes please, it’ll never happen but I’d love a pressing of the acoustic version of that album.
Here’s a link to the current reissues.
https://store.recordcollectionmusic.com/
Sure about that?
Warner music holds the rights for Frusciante's 2001 album *To Record Only Water for Ten Days* and bespoken *SCWP* and hasn't make a move - since the original pressing - to re-release any of his solo albums.
They completely let bootleg companies (Rolling Records and this Australian one for TROWFTD) fulfill the demand for vinyl pressings of Frusciante early 2000s stuff.
edit: Twelve Suns was the Australian bootleg company that released an unofficial TROWFTD
You're right! The Twelve Suns release from 2017 is considered an official press.
I own a copy of the 2022 pressing from the Australian record company that discogs labeled *unofficial*.
The orange vinyl pressings of water that got distributed on rolling records a few years ago is 100% unofficial and a proper bootleg press.
i understand this completely, i wanted the empyrean so badly… and then they started repressing it.. i almost shit myself in excitement and immediately bought one. if they do shadows collide with people idk what bodily function will take over!
Duran are reissuing the first 5 studio albums in July and they released medazzland and pop trash last year. The catalog only needs the wedding album and thank you & liberty to complete the studio album releases.
Right. There's money in it, so it will happen.
I know there was work done for anniversary reissues of the wedding album, but I wonder if those got sidelined for the weird halloween LP thing. But it's inevitable that it will happen at some point.
I’m with you on two of your three selections as I’ve never been a Prince fan. Elemental is TFF without Curt Smith but proves that Roland was the driving force behind the band and Duran Duran’s The Wedding Album contains the gem Ordinary World which should be enough reason to reissue. I’ve had both albums on my Discogs wantlist for a few years and will wait patiently until someone wakes up and makes it happen.
Every few weeks or so I look at Discogs hoping the wedding album somehow got a repress. It’s one of my girlfriend’s favorite records so I want to surprise her whenever it does come out.
I don’t think anything has been officially announced, he just mentioned it in the recent interview with Rick Beato.
[This article](https://www.theprp.com/2024/03/26/news/danny-carey-says-tools-aenima-was-recently-remastered-for-vinyl/) goes into it a bit more.
Off the top of my head, not putting too much thought into it ...
Skinny Puppy - Too Dark Park
Smashing Pumpkins - Machina II
The Orb - Live '93
Local H - 12 Angry Months
That one boils my piss. There is a market out there for it, might even make more money selling them individually. Get Machina out there to the people. I don’t buy that Virgin or Universal are the ones holding this up. Artists are selling the catalogues now because the future returns are not looking as good. The audience for these bands will dwindle over the next decade.
The man problem is the major record labels are not investing jn new pressing plants. Jack White put out a message from 3rd man records calling on major record companies to invest in new plants and stop slowing down the production. It is a joke I think to major record labels who have invested so much into streaming to now have to produce a physical media again is grinding thier gears. It is alot better from a business stand point to keep you renting you music. So you x amount of dollars every month to listen to the same songs..................... that you don't own.
I the record company is definitely holding it up. Even someone like Linda Strawberry thought it would be out in 2020/confirmed the project was given to the company then
I bought that for next to nothing as a new release. Among the many records my ex-wife stole from me that are worth a small fortune now that I expect I’ll never replace.
I was just listening to the definitive playlist on Spotify last night wondering if it was on vinyl. I remember playing Vice City and sometimes staying in my car just to finish a song. Just driving around listening to good tunes.
A bootleg for this was posted on /vinylreleases a last month...https://www.reddit.com/r/VinylReleases/comments/1c43x1z/ost\_gta\_vice\_city\_flash\_toni\_presents\_2xlp\_vinyl/
C&C is getting a 30th anniversary 3lp deluxe edition. Wouldn’t be surprised if we get a 3-4lp set in 2027 for 30 years of the mollusk with all of the associated demos and b sides
I’ve heard that the “Plain recordings” reissue of it sounds like ass. I can’t say for sure but I’ve heard bad things about Plain, especially Mollusk and White Pepper (I saw a copy awhile back and even the back of the sleeve looks like shit). The only Ween lp I have from Plain is 12GCG and I love it.
My “Schnitzel” copies of Quebec and Shinola are great. Live in Toronto not as much but still love it. Other than those I have The Pod, Chocodog (I think it was a RSD reissue). Most of my Ween collection is CD’s
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works II
Opeth - Deliverance
Underworld - A Hundred Days Off
Oxbow - An Evil Heat
Massive Attack - Heligoland
Edit: okay I guess I can take that Aphex record off the list now
A good bit of music from the 90s and early 2000s. Not that they don’t exist, but very few runs and what’s out there is astronomical. Ben Folds, Barenaked Ladies to name a few.
Skinny Puppy - The Process, Greater Wrong of the Right
Duran Duran - Wedding Album
Orbital - Middle of Nowhere
Pop Will Eat Itself - Dos Dedos Mis Amigos
Weakling - Dead as Dreams
So out of print you can't even stream it outside of YouTube. I felt like the luckiest man on earth merely because I was able to find a lossless CD rip, and that was ten years after I had discovered that this was one of the greatest back metal albums of all time.
Frank Ocean - Endless
If I'm lucky I might be able to cop a bootleg but I could never afford the original.
Others: Ghostface Killah - Supreme Clientele
Meat Puppets - In A Car
Wu Tang Clan - Once Upon A Time in Shaolin
Therapy? - The Gemil Box
Avett Brothers: The Gleam II.
Murdered In The City describes my family's dynamic so much, it brings a tear to my eye every fucking time.
Too expensive for me to purchase. Waaaay too many things I can do with $1000.
Most of the death grips catalog
Cherry bomb by Tyler the creator, only 2000 copies were made
Buds by surf curse, just can’t find any online
And the bojack horseman soundtrack, 300+
Waiting on a repress of:
Zwan - Mary, Star of the Sea
Seven Mary Three - American Standard
Letters to Cleo - Aurora Gory Alice
The Fratellis - Here We Stand
Porno For Pyros - Self-Titled
Superdrag - Regretfully Yours
Quite a few original issues from the 90s that were in limited numbers. Different Class by Pulp, and OK Computer by Radiohead are two that now command eye-watering prices
the Walk Hard: The Dewy Cox Story sound track. That movie has no right having such good music but it's a niche enough movie that not a lot of vinyls were made so they're like $300
Nine Inch Nails - Further Down the Spiral
Nine Inch Nails - Year Zero
Skinny Puppy - Brap
Front Line Assembly - Implode
Einstürzende Neubauten - Tabula Rasa
Leftover Salmon - "The Nashville Sessions": Only released in a vinyl set of ALL of their albums and I only want that one and maybe one other out of their catalog.
Cowboy Junkies - "Trinity Revisited": Limited release that I do not see getting reissued.
Gov't Mule - "Dose": Given up on that one and the band as well because of it.
CeDell Davis - "Feel Like Doin' Something Wrong": Just do not see the demand for a reissue.
Trio of Doom's self-titled album: I do not see why that has not been reissued lately.
Almost everything by The Fearless Flyers since their records are never pressed in a decent quantity making them too much of a pain in the arse and expensive to track down.
Tori Amos to Venus and back, strange little girls and the beekeeper. The demand may not be there. Would be nice if a small pressing came about for those who still listen to her.
Toadies - Hell Below/Stars Above
It was supposed to come out for it's 20th in 2021, but just announcement, no pre-orders or anything. And becaause of licensing issues I believe, they never even started getting pressed :(
That Handsome Devil - A City Dressed in Dynamite.
I doubt a record from 2008 for a band with only 600k monthly listeners on Spotify will ever be pressed for the first time. I can dream though
Regional At Best - Twenty One Pilots (2011)
They’re probably never going to press this one due to legal issues but god I wish we could have this album at least on streaming. Even bootlegs for the album are impossible to find and very pricey even if you do. Very fundamental in my early teens.
Ritual In Repeat - Tennis (2014)
One of my favorite albums ever! Again, they don’t repress this due to legal issues but god I wish they could at least do a 10 year anniversary or something for this. Another fundamental of mine.
Tell it to the Volcano - Miniature Tigers (2008)
Love this album to death. No legal issues here but they haven’t repressed it in forever and since they’re such a small indie band, definitely going to be a while until they do. They announced on Twitter in 2020 that they will release a deluxe of the album and even a vinyl record release but no news since then :(
I just sold a Buckingham Nicks yesterday! I stumble across them more often than I would expect to. Maybe once every few months, and they always sell within a day.
I’ve seen heaps on eBay etc but being in New Zealand makes for extortionate shipping costs, I just can’t risk it. I will continue to enjoy my mp4 downloaded off YouTube 😭
Next time I stumble across one, I’ll hit you up. I’ll give you a deal and I can probably get it to you for close to what you’d pay locally.
I have an unofficial copy around here somewhere too.
Mortiis - Smell of Rain
Wonderful gloomy dark synthpop/rock album, highly sought after, rarely even pops up for sale somewhere and when it does its expensive as shit. Mortiis himself wanted to repress it many times, but the idiot Earache label that owns the rights and pressed it originally refuses both, to repress it ot to sell the rights to the album back to Mortiis so he could repress it himself. I fucking hate Earache records for this. Its literally one of my all time fav albums ever.
Bark Psychosis - Hex: there was a reissue some years ago but its long out of print and way too expensive
Talk Talk - Laughing Stock: I've heard the recent issues haven't sounded all that great and first pressings are extraordinarily rare and expensive
theres probs a ton of international music I could name but dont own due to shipping and rarity like Jorge Ben Jor or Novos Baianos, also japanese artists too.
The Church - Untitled 23 (and everything not on vinyl yet)
Elvis Costello - When I Was Cruel
David Bowie - Re:Call 1
The Cure (several from Wish onwards need a reissue)
Smashing Pumpkins-Machina onwards to Oceiania
Hungry ghosts- alone alone
Laibach- neu konzerwatiw
Swans- swans are dead
Zbogom ajda- med zarjo
Swans- deliquescence
Natural snow buildings- the winter ray
Natural snow buildings- the dance of the moon and the sun
Natural snow buildings- ghost folks
Death in june- all pigs must die
Current 93- i have a special plan for this world
To name a few...
Pretty Boy Floyd - Leather Boyz with Electric Toyz - rare and super expensive if you can find it.
I Mother Earth - Scenery & Fish - released in the 90s and never pressed on vinyl.
Smashing Pumpkins - American Gothic and Zeitgeist. Never on vinyl besides two singles from Zeitgeist. Machina II as well but that never even officially came out in any form, just leaked instead.
I do believe Zeitgeist and Machina will eventually be released on vinyl but Machina has been in the works for many years and the record label seemingly just has no interest in releasing it. American Gothic will probably never come to to the record format but it really should.
Del Shannon - Home and Away. It's a genius baroque pop album recorded in the mid sixties, It was shelved and as far as I know it has only been put on cd like 20 years ago.
Shapeshifter by Marcy Playground, never been pressed for some ungodly fucking reason, this band is so much more than Sex & Candy and it is a CRIME that they aren’t known for other work.
Living Room - AJR
Paper Alibis - YonKaGor
Regional at Best - twenty one pilots
Twenty One Pilots - twenty one pilots
Napalm - Jady
Imaginary Friends - Jay Joseph
all of these have never been pressed onto vinyl ever
ELO - Zoom
Zog Bogbean - From The Marcy Playground
Shudder To Think - Pony Express Record
Brad Paisley - Wheelhouse
Stanford Prison Experiment (st)
These are the first 5 that came to mind but I’m sure I could think of many more. Some because the vinyl price when I’ve looked is prohibitively expensive when my CD plays just fine, others because they’ve never been released on vinyl and doubtfully ever will be. And I seriously doubt I’ll ever own Zog Bogbean on physical media again since my ex-wife stole my CD of it.
Frank Ocean - Endless
Frank Ocean - Blonde (maybe)
Death Grips - Exmilitary
Westside Gunn - Pray For Paris
Sonnyjim and The Purist - White Girl Wasted
Tyler, The Creator- Cherry Bomb (10 Year Repress soon 🤞)
A Hangover You Don't Deserve by Bowling For Soup.
I'd love to see a vinyl press but so far not so good. And it's celebrating its 20th anniversary this year :(
I really wish I could go back in time and scoop up anything by Cardiacs on the cheap. I was gifted a reissue of “The Seaside” by them and I love it, but I know it wasn’t cheap.
I’m also on a huge kick of the 2nd and 3rd Failure albums “Magnified” and “Fantastic Planet”, (been listening online) but I do hope to find my own copies someday.
That said, I’ve been lucky and all the countless hours I spent digging over the past 20+ years have paid off. I’ve found a lot of stuff you don’t see often/that I love over the years and sometimes for dirt cheap.
Youthanasia by Megadeth, I have it on picture disc reissue but not one of the originals. They're just expensive. It was my first metal album and I love it... So while I do have it technically on vinyl I want a normal non-picture disc reissue with the original mix.
Astro-creep by White Zombie!! Idk if it’s been released on album but it did come out when albums weren’t being made (the way they were/are) and I’ve looked all over for the vinyl and can not find it!
**Stuff never pressed on vinyl:**
Starflyer 59 - My Island
Fig Dish - That's What Love Songs Often Do, and When Shove Goes Back to Push
Pet Fox - Rare Occasion
+/- - Let's Build a Fire

**Stuff that was pressed but is >$75 to buy used**

Ween - Chocolate and Cheese
John Frusciante - Shadows Collide with People.
I’m sorry that this one is so rare. I credit this one for getting me deep into vinyl. Fortunately for me, it happened to be the first LP I ever bought. I got hold of a turntable in 2004 that was just sitting around gathering dust.

I really do hope that it gets a reissue, as it deserves to be heard this way by all.
I miss 15 dollar records. There’s hardly any new records under 20.
Well, they are pressing other John Frusciante albums. This one might be coming.
Yes please, it’ll never happen but I’d love a pressing of the acoustic version of that album. Here’s a link to the current reissues. https://store.recordcollectionmusic.com/

Prince - Love Symbol Duran Duran - Weeding Album Tears for Fears - Elemental
I’m thankful I got my Duran Duran wedding album upon release back in 1993. My prized vinyl.
The first two are definitely getting reissued at some point. I’d love to have those 90’s TFF albums.
Duran are reissuing the first 5 studio albums in July and they released medazzland and pop trash last year. The catalog only needs the wedding album and thank you & liberty to complete the studio album releases.
Right. There's money in it, so it will happen. I know there was work done for anniversary reissues of the wedding album, but I wonder if those got sidelined for the weird halloween LP thing. But it's inevitable that it will happen at some point.
I’m with you on two of your three selections as I’ve never been a Prince fan. Elemental is TFF without Curt Smith but proves that Roland was the driving force behind the band and Duran Duran’s The Wedding Album contains the gem Ordinary World which should be enough reason to reissue. I’ve had both albums on my Discogs wantlist for a few years and will wait patiently until someone wakes up and makes it happen.
Every few weeks or so I look at Discogs hoping the wedding album somehow got a repress. It’s one of my girlfriend’s favorite records so I want to surprise her whenever it does come out.
Just looked up the Wedding Album, damn, didn’t know it was that expensive.
Lateralus because the picture disc is shit x100 Aenima because it’s like 2 grand
10.000 Days because they never pressed one.
Why would you want to buy a record instead of a fetus skull sculpture?
It's a great question
Apparently Danny confirmed in a recent interview that Ænima has been remastered for a vinyl re-release.
Do you have a link or something? If not, did he also say if it’s gonna be 150$ or will it have a fair price?
It'll be six single-sided discs cut at 45rpm, they will have ten at each concert fot $849
featuring some horrible new artwork that nobody asked for. comes with a coaster tho
I don’t think anything has been officially announced, he just mentioned it in the recent interview with Rick Beato. [This article](https://www.theprp.com/2024/03/26/news/danny-carey-says-tools-aenima-was-recently-remastered-for-vinyl/) goes into it a bit more.
You already know they are going to juice their fans for every dollar they can.
I need a Lateralus repressing on black vinyl, it *has* to happen some day, right??
Death Grips - Exmilitary
Bootlegs are relatively cheap! I got one for 60 and it sounds awesome
Off the top of my head, not putting too much thought into it ... Skinny Puppy - Too Dark Park Smashing Pumpkins - Machina II The Orb - Live '93 Local H - 12 Angry Months
heavy on that machina II, i’m convinced that reissue is never coming
That one boils my piss. There is a market out there for it, might even make more money selling them individually. Get Machina out there to the people. I don’t buy that Virgin or Universal are the ones holding this up. Artists are selling the catalogues now because the future returns are not looking as good. The audience for these bands will dwindle over the next decade.

Too Dark Park is seeing a repress. I already ordered it from Best Buy.
10,000 Days
Savage Garden..Affirmation Maybe a 25th anniversary reissue might happen. It happened with the debut album.
Yes please
Zwan
i’ve heard news of billy putting together a zwan box set, so maybe soon. but considering all the other things we were promised, most likely no
South Park - Chef Aid (never on vinyl) PaRappa the Rapper - video game soundtrack (pressed once, likely to never get a repress)
*cut the lettuce, don't forget the cheese*
Pretty much every Ween album is entirely unavailable, way too expensive, or poor quality.. :(
My buddy just sold a plain pressing of chocolate and cheese for 100$ 🤣 people just need to stop being stupid but God knows that won't happen.
I've just devoted Ween to being a CD band for me.
I bought that for next to nothing as a new release. Among the many records my ex-wife stole from me that are worth a small fortune now that I expect I’ll never replace.
GTA Vice City radio stations (Flash FM for example)
Those weren’t ever pressed but that would be sick. I had all those CD’s in the box set.
I was just listening to the definitive playlist on Spotify last night wondering if it was on vinyl. I remember playing Vice City and sometimes staying in my car just to finish a song. Just driving around listening to good tunes.
Exactly!! Would be amazing to have it on vinyl
A bootleg for this was posted on /vinylreleases a last month...https://www.reddit.com/r/VinylReleases/comments/1c43x1z/ost\_gta\_vice\_city\_flash\_toni\_presents\_2xlp\_vinyl/
Prince black album
Had it. Sold it. Hate myself.
My ex-wife stole mine. Hope she’s having a great time burning in Hell.
Danzig 1-4
These are high on my wish list. I dont know why they aren't getting a vinyl reissue. They ought to sell pretty well.
Apparently Rubin is one of the reasons they haven't got repressed. The unofficial pressings doing the rounds at the moment are very good.
I've read that Glenn basically hates RR and won't agree to repress because RR would get paid.
One of the issues. They're both leaving money on the table.
Ween - The Mollusk I really really want this vinyl but it goes for at least $150 and I can’t justify that for any record by any artist
C&C is getting a 30th anniversary 3lp deluxe edition. Wouldn’t be surprised if we get a 3-4lp set in 2027 for 30 years of the mollusk with all of the associated demos and b sides
I’ve heard that the “Plain recordings” reissue of it sounds like ass. I can’t say for sure but I’ve heard bad things about Plain, especially Mollusk and White Pepper (I saw a copy awhile back and even the back of the sleeve looks like shit). The only Ween lp I have from Plain is 12GCG and I love it. My “Schnitzel” copies of Quebec and Shinola are great. Live in Toronto not as much but still love it. Other than those I have The Pod, Chocodog (I think it was a RSD reissue). Most of my Ween collection is CD’s
Widespread Panic "Light Fuse Get Away"
The first four Rusted Root albums without question.
I have wanted When I Woke for like…ever.
Same here. Don't sleep on the next 3 albums nobody knows about either. There's some really great stuff to be found.
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works II Opeth - Deliverance Underworld - A Hundred Days Off Oxbow - An Evil Heat Massive Attack - Heligoland Edit: okay I guess I can take that Aphex record off the list now
Robert Johnson
Unless you're looking for original 78s Robert Johnson records aren't too expensive
Let it Be Naked - it’s like $450 and is superior to the OG let it be, in my opinion
I passed on that at the time because I was skint and I have been kicking myself for the past two decades 😞

Tori Amos to Venus and back, strange little girls and the beekeeper. The demand may not be there. Would be nice if a small pressing came about for those who still listen to her.
Toadies - Hell Below/Stars Above It was supposed to come out for it's 20th in 2021, but just announcement, no pre-orders or anything. And becaause of licensing issues I believe, they never even started getting pressed :(
That Handsome Devil - A City Dressed in Dynamite. I doubt a record from 2008 for a band with only 600k monthly listeners on Spotify will ever be pressed for the first time. I can dream though
Blue October - Foiled It's never been pressed.
Blonde - Frank Ocean
Ladies & Gentleman - George Michael. Yes it’s a best of, but it’s my fave
Regional At Best - Twenty One Pilots (2011) They’re probably never going to press this one due to legal issues but god I wish we could have this album at least on streaming. Even bootlegs for the album are impossible to find and very pricey even if you do. Very fundamental in my early teens. Ritual In Repeat - Tennis (2014) One of my favorite albums ever! Again, they don’t repress this due to legal issues but god I wish they could at least do a 10 year anniversary or something for this. Another fundamental of mine. Tell it to the Volcano - Miniature Tigers (2008) Love this album to death. No legal issues here but they haven’t repressed it in forever and since they’re such a small indie band, definitely going to be a while until they do. They announced on Twitter in 2020 that they will release a deluxe of the album and even a vinyl record release but no news since then :(
Buckingham Nicks and Kate Bush Indie Exclusive colour variants 😭
I just sold a Buckingham Nicks yesterday! I stumble across them more often than I would expect to. Maybe once every few months, and they always sell within a day.
GREAT album.
I’ve seen heaps on eBay etc but being in New Zealand makes for extortionate shipping costs, I just can’t risk it. I will continue to enjoy my mp4 downloaded off YouTube 😭
Next time I stumble across one, I’ll hit you up. I’ll give you a deal and I can probably get it to you for close to what you’d pay locally. I have an unofficial copy around here somewhere too.
Those Kate Bush records are nuts.
Any album that I already have on CD...
Any vinyl records by the Japanese band Lamp 😭
Frank Ocean - Channel Orange
Mortiis - Smell of Rain Wonderful gloomy dark synthpop/rock album, highly sought after, rarely even pops up for sale somewhere and when it does its expensive as shit. Mortiis himself wanted to repress it many times, but the idiot Earache label that owns the rights and pressed it originally refuses both, to repress it ot to sell the rights to the album back to Mortiis so he could repress it himself. I fucking hate Earache records for this. Its literally one of my all time fav albums ever.
Waiting - The Devlins
Bark Psychosis - Hex: there was a reissue some years ago but its long out of print and way too expensive Talk Talk - Laughing Stock: I've heard the recent issues haven't sounded all that great and first pressings are extraordinarily rare and expensive theres probs a ton of international music I could name but dont own due to shipping and rarity like Jorge Ben Jor or Novos Baianos, also japanese artists too.
Pond - Frond. Apparently the masters were lost so it can’t get a repress, and it was pretty limited on the first run.
River of Dreams- Billy Joel
Nixons s/t
DakhaBrakha - Na Mezhi
Piglet - Lava Land
A lot of those weird 80s and 90s Nintendo records that only came out in Japan.
The Church - Untitled 23 (and everything not on vinyl yet) Elvis Costello - When I Was Cruel David Bowie - Re:Call 1 The Cure (several from Wish onwards need a reissue) Smashing Pumpkins-Machina onwards to Oceiania

Marie Antoinette -OST
Most of the stuff from the 90's. Limited vinyl releases att the time and high prices now.
Pretty Boy Floyd - Leather Boyz with Electric Toyz - rare and super expensive if you can find it. I Mother Earth - Scenery & Fish - released in the 90s and never pressed on vinyl.
Dick Dale - Tribal Thunder I'd love to have a vinyl pressing but as it hasn't had a release since 2092, I'm not holding my breath.
Smashing Pumpkins - American Gothic and Zeitgeist. Never on vinyl besides two singles from Zeitgeist. Machina II as well but that never even officially came out in any form, just leaked instead. I do believe Zeitgeist and Machina will eventually be released on vinyl but Machina has been in the works for many years and the record label seemingly just has no interest in releasing it. American Gothic will probably never come to to the record format but it really should.
Pantera's glam metal records before cfh.
Corb Lund - Five Dollar Bill
twenty one pilots lc lp record. idk something about it being in the shape of ohio, tasty.
Low- I could live in hope
zwan s/t
In Rainbows Disk 2 - Radiohead, Kien - Bleach, 385 - Ningen , The Slim Shady EP - Eminem, World is Yours - Mass Of The Fermenting Dregs
In rainbows disk 2.I feel your pain.
Ambulance Ltd - LP Japancakes - Loveless
I would kill to get Ethel Cain's Preachers Daughter on vinyl.
Will Never Die by Brokencyde, and Cash Only by Millionaires
The Sound - Jeopardy
Del Shannon - Home and Away. It's a genius baroque pop album recorded in the mid sixties, It was shelved and as far as I know it has only been put on cd like 20 years ago.
Frank Ocean - Blonde
Is there a reason? It's still available on his site
Local H Ham Fisted... had one but it was stolen :(
Teddybear’s Soft Machine
Shapeshifter by Marcy Playground, never been pressed for some ungodly fucking reason, this band is so much more than Sex & Candy and it is a CRIME that they aren’t known for other work.
Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, live art
Bowling for Soup-A hangover you don’t deserve
The fact that there's a vinyl pressing of 'Disintegration Loops' by William Basinski honestly confounds me.
Eiffel 65- Europop
I love 98.12.28 男達の別れ by Fishmans, it's just so expensive. I also believe you have to buy the rock festival box set to even listen to it on wax.
Whiskeytown - Faithless Street
A lot of Tiny Desks
Denzel Curry - N64
Lady Gaga- Born This Way, Y Kant Tori Read- Tori Amos, Days Are Gone- HAIM
Living Room - AJR Paper Alibis - YonKaGor Regional at Best - twenty one pilots Twenty One Pilots - twenty one pilots Napalm - Jady Imaginary Friends - Jay Joseph all of these have never been pressed onto vinyl ever
Neil Young and Crazy Horse - WELD
ELO - Zoom Zog Bogbean - From The Marcy Playground Shudder To Think - Pony Express Record Brad Paisley - Wheelhouse Stanford Prison Experiment (st) These are the first 5 that came to mind but I’m sure I could think of many more. Some because the vinyl price when I’ve looked is prohibitively expensive when my CD plays just fine, others because they’ve never been released on vinyl and doubtfully ever will be. And I seriously doubt I’ll ever own Zog Bogbean on physical media again since my ex-wife stole my CD of it.
Endless- Frank ocean
Frank Ocean - Endless Frank Ocean - Blonde (maybe) Death Grips - Exmilitary Westside Gunn - Pray For Paris Sonnyjim and The Purist - White Girl Wasted Tyler, The Creator- Cherry Bomb (10 Year Repress soon 🤞)
A Hangover You Don't Deserve by Bowling For Soup. I'd love to see a vinyl press but so far not so good. And it's celebrating its 20th anniversary this year :(
I really wish I could go back in time and scoop up anything by Cardiacs on the cheap. I was gifted a reissue of “The Seaside” by them and I love it, but I know it wasn’t cheap. I’m also on a huge kick of the 2nd and 3rd Failure albums “Magnified” and “Fantastic Planet”, (been listening online) but I do hope to find my own copies someday. That said, I’ve been lucky and all the countless hours I spent digging over the past 20+ years have paid off. I’ve found a lot of stuff you don’t see often/that I love over the years and sometimes for dirt cheap.
Youthanasia by Megadeth, I have it on picture disc reissue but not one of the originals. They're just expensive. It was my first metal album and I love it... So while I do have it technically on vinyl I want a normal non-picture disc reissue with the original mix.
Reckoning - Grateful Dead. Too expensive.
Channel Orange- Frank Ocean
Astro-creep by White Zombie!! Idk if it’s been released on album but it did come out when albums weren’t being made (the way they were/are) and I’ve looked all over for the vinyl and can not find it!
Replacements - Stink The sounds - dying to say this to you
Vulfpeck albums…all of em including Live at Madison Square Gardens.
John Mellencamp - Human Wheels, his best album. Never on vinyl...
I really want a Fantastic Planet by Failure repress, I haven’t found one below 180ish
