Do you mean Obscure Alternatives from the Live In Tokyo EP?

It's a long time since I had the vinyl :( but that was the second Japan song I ever heard, and now that it's tacked on to the end of the OA reissue it's enjoying something of a renaissance period with me :)

Great gift indeed!!!

I still have my turntable my dad bought for me years ago--love it!! I bought extra needles years ago as I thought all would be obsolete before too long---glad I was wrong!! I even have one of those nostalgia turntables in the wooden case, with the cd and cassette players that they sell for about $99 , or you can get one for more that makes cds as well.


Also, Crutchfield sells the turntables with USB cord and download program disc, and the prices are very reasonable.

There's a turntable in the hi fi we have at home, and now we have a second that we got from my grandpa. I should go and check the Adolescent Sex copy I got yesterday on vinyl ;)

hehe Sisterlondon and I took all the vinyl copies of Adolescent Sex we found in Valencia...

My turntable was one of the best b-day gifts nobody ever gave to me. My father gave it to me like 5 years ago and I love it.
Yesterday, I spent a nive shopping afternoon with Sisterlondon in Valencia and took home some small treasures :P
