Hello! Poly Styrene?? Wow. Sad news. She was the same age I am. That made her 16 when Germ Free Adolescents came out. | |
Fri. 11/6/15 1:01am
rw:
Oh, that article I looked up was from a few years ago. Never mind. Still sad. | |

heya rw yeah sorry if that was misleading. just hearing that song made me sad about it for a second; but i think it was 2011. (?) |
Fri. 11/6/15 1:20am
rw:
If I'm doing the math correctly she was 20 when that record came out. That makes more sense. Still very young. That LP has some pretty great songs on it. | |

coelacanth:
yes it does. i paid $5. for that (new) back then. i saw it somewhere for $100. in the last 15 years. it's very tempting to cash-in on that -but it's a great album cover! (& i like vinyl...) i'd like to keep it but i'm pretty hurtin' for money now. - what to do... |
Fri. 11/6/15 1:45am
rw:
Hmmm... don't know what to tell you about that one. I don't think I'd sell it. Seems like there are other ways to come up with that much cash. But then I'm pretty attached to my record collection. | |

rw:
I have a friend who was making a living buying and selling vintage objects for a while. He said there's a duration of time where things become more valuable and then it tapers off again. People who remember that LP may be reaching retirement age and have less desire to own more stuff. Of course there's a generation of people in their mid 30s to mid 40s who regret missing early punk, are earning a good salaries and have $ to spend on a cool old collectible LPs. | |

me too. i've always had the luxury of a relative with a big house; but that will change one day. |

coelacanth:
yeah i've figured that. first (when cds came) it was a buyer's market; then people cared about records again...but at some point the seller's ship will have sailed, for one reason or another. - i have lots of punk albums in good shape, which (i think) is especially valuable- because of the i-dont-give-a-fuck approach most buyers of punk had. ....but i probably don't have much time to capitalise on that. |

![]() I love LP's but man, not having a permanent abode, they are a bit of a drag to move |
Fri. 11/6/15 2:07am
rw:
coel, It's tough to say for sure, but I suspect you're right. Though my 14 year old is listening to the DKs now, he's less vested in it than kids a few years older than him, who are in turn less vested than young adults a few years older than them... | |

I just wonder what my kids are going to do with a closet full of weird old LPs when I die. | |

ahoy Alejandroool! - yes, if i owned a house it would be a no-brainer. that hasn't happened yet and yeah they suck to move and take lots of space. |
Fri. 11/6/15 2:18am
rw:
Hmmm... a house built of LPs... | |

![]() ahoy maties! for myself, I will always hold on to my collection that I am attached to, and whatever else, but some things I only have for a song or two, or who knows what reason.. have to purge a bit. |

regarding that rw, i was friendly (to the best of his ability) with a guy who offed himself about 10 years ago. he was prejudiced against me because he perceived me as a "hippie" (whatever that is) then one day he walked by my taxi as i was eating lunch with bad brains playing and we became friendly. when he died i met his son,who was about 12 at the time. now,a month or 2 ago,his son has moved in across the hall from me. the 2nd time we bumped into each other he asked me if i want to buy some dead kennedys records. ...so- i don't have much faith that kids now are interested at all in these. i think it's folks my age,if anyone. |

,,ey DJNN ! I Hope You are of well health . I had to push myself and travel 200mi.to go see and hear Dweezil Zappa perform Frank Zappa`s "One Size Fits All" LP on 9-29 a nice surprise since the last show Id seen that was shear magic beauty was "the Butthole Surfer`s "Locust Abortion Technicion" in the Uptown Theater in KC,MO.1987,,,Good Work Mon ! | |

droool, i figure i should get rid of any record without at least 20 minutes on it that i want. i'll just put it on cds....unless the album cover really rocks,of course! |

![]() Coela, it's possible that in this more digital age, kids are finding fresher newer sounds to dig and see the older stuff like DK as too bland or not topical without context? (Reagan, whodat?) who knows... |

coelacanth:
you're probably right, considering the political or sociopolitical nature of good punkrock. |
Fri. 11/6/15 2:33am
rw:
Ha! I had forgotten about that cover. It's a good'n. | |

Fri. 11/6/15 2:35am
coelacanth:
yes, i have one album cover that i got with a different record in it and i've yet to hear this band ("Man"..?) but the gatefold cover is a pop-up village! it's amazing! |
Fri. 11/6/15 2:38am
rw:
d. from ks. I had a pretty great experience seeing the Butthole Surfers in KC at the VFW Hall in 1983 or thereabouts when their first EP came out. Halloween weekend. I was wearing a Lou Reed mask. Not sure I'd call it magical exactly but maybe something close. | |

...(actually i may be mistaken. the man cover has a map in it but it must be something else with the pop-up.) |

![]() pop-up! I have no pop-ups... |

i wish i could recall what album that is. it's not here; it's in my sister's big house. the man cover is "sort of" a pop-up. it unfolds to 4X the size of an lp cover. |

@rw "Cream Corn" convinced me they were a band to hear! I got to see em twice once with the large band and 2nd with a trimmed down version at "The Bottleneck in Lawrence KS. where i managed to get my 11 year old son into. With that ever going film in back of em it was mesmerizing. and thanks Nik ! | |

![]() night all, dozin' off shortly, def. catch up on the first 2 hrs of the show soon, cheers! |

rw:
d. from ks, When you mentioned the Uptown Theater show I had to jog my memory. I thought for a second that we might have been at the same show! And the Bottleneck... I went to KU in the early '80s. I may have been there when that place opened. My memory's pretty fuzzy, but I may have known the woman who opened it. Fuzzy. | |
