Vinyl Binge as of late

Recommended Posts

I have recently started a M vinyl binge.  Anybody else here, new to vinyl?  When the vinyls arrive, they are so gorgeous and I fall head over heals all over again with the Queen Mother.  I am addicted.  In the 90's, I purchased a lot of 12" singles.  I wish yhat I still had them. Haha. Forward 30 years and.... So far, I have recently purchased...

Madonna

Like a Virgin

True Blue

Who's that Girl

The Immaculate Collection 

Bedtime Stories (right side up, not the proper upside down cover- haven't found that yet)

Music (with American Pie)

American Life

Confession on a Dancefloor

Rebel Heart

Madame X

I am missing a few and am hoping that rereleases will be less expensive than the ones being held hostage on eBay and discogs.  I am hoping for earlier releases of LAP, Erotica and Ray of Light.  I picked up a few of them in Iceland.  That was fun.  

 

I never thought that I would buy vinyl records, but here I am.  I am still pissed that the collectible MDNA cover sold out in three damn minutes.   Haha. 

 

Digital will never replace the excitement of holding that giant vinyl record.  I love this woman and all that she has given me through the years.

I started collecting Single Vinyls in the late 90's when I got a turntable and tried to DJ.  TRIED! And I recently got sucked into the Album Reissues on color vinyls even though I don't have space or a turntable to play them. So they're basically in a box or hanging on the wall like ART. I actually have a hard time remembering what I have Cuz as soon as I unbox them they're being stored away. ?

And this is how it starts, welcome to addiction. I just wish I had a wall big enough to hang the entire collection like a record store.

Yes! Well technically not new because as a teenager I bought my Madonna music on vinyl, because that is how it was done back then. I had all the albums onto vinyl up to TIC, then I switched to CD. Spent the last few years completing my collection. Geez it is expensive..... Can't wait for the deluxe reissues!

WOW! It's like your own personal Record Runner store. Amazing.

Also the 2 Mariah vinyls I spy are amazing too. I still have that Honey vinyl. It was the only way to get THAT Morales Club DUB. Whew! A moment.

Totally addict to the vinyls. I've been buying them since the 80s. In recent years, I've completed the pieces that I couldn't buy at the time, such as the Japanese editions or specials editions. My latest acquisition is Gambler 7 poster fold. I hope find the Borderline 7 poster fold in good condition too. I'm more in the 80's period

I don't think I've ever seen Bedtime Stories on vinyl with the cover upside down. I had it on cassette that way. I did pick up the Bedtime Stories DJ pink vinyl a few years back but that is the usual way up.

It doesn't exist. The vinyl was only published with the original cover. The cassette and the CD have two versions

Thank god, I could do without feeling the need to buy it again. Although I do prefer the upside down cover... maybe she'll do a limited edition upside down sleeve to celebrate it's anniversary lol

@SultrysullyI love hearing about vinyl-passion! And thanks for sharing ❤ -- I have a really good copy of the 1998 German Ray Of Light and also Music German from 2000 that I am ready to pass on if you would like to buy them, since I have bought re-issues. So, when are you coming back to Iceland ?

"Wow, that's a lot of Madonna stuff."
"Sure is. You can look, but don't touch anything. I can show you any piece of my collection, and tell you all about its history, where and when I bought it, the catalogue number,  the tracks it has, how it did in the charts - but for the love of god, don't touch anything."  :angry: :cute:
