About five years ago the second hand record shop in Dundee (Grouchos anyone?) had a massive influx of practically mint New Order/Electronic 12" vinyl...

============================================
All in all it's not a bad little collection considering I'm not a hardcore vinyl buyer, although I'm sure there are other NOOLers who have mountains more ;) I try not to pay too much money for vinyl because I basically don't play it at all, however the big artwork covers are brilliant to have and I don't think I will ever part with them. My favourite artworks from the above lot include Fine Time, Regret, Ruined in a day, and Round & Round. From the side projects, the Revenge stuff is basically soft porn ;) but good to have since it can be quite rare. The Music for pleasure artwork is also a personal favourite as I have a big poster of it on my wall. The Electronic 'Electromix' 12" is great too, classy Saville design.
I really must sit down one day and archive all my NO-related Vinyl/CD stuff.. chuck it in a spreadsheet or something, I really don't want to lose anything! As N21 will confirm I am still kicking myself for parting with the Yellow Electronic "Until The End Of Time" CD single in a '97 trade
but cheers for helping me out with a perfect a audio copy mate
hehe.
Cheers, Ally.
PS. If anyone out there has a copy of Monaco's ultra rare "Shattered" 12" promo that was given away at a 97 gig (can't remember which one) and is willing to part with it for a fair price, drop me a line! Even if it's just to communicate sleeve info etc.
