All that time stuck at home during quarantine, and somehow I had vinyl piling up that I hadn't listened to yet. Embarrassing. Well, finally I've started playing through it all, here's two of them--bringing my 'colored vinyl' and 'vinyl I've unwrapped myself' counts to 4 and 7, respectively. I highly recommend both (unless you're like my mom and sister who think The Move is only good for inducing headaches... ). I'm no audiophile, and I haven't had the chance to listen through headphones yet, but the pressings sounded pretty good on my primitive setup, if maybe a little quiet on Schizophrenic Psychedelia. It's going for $10 on Amazon US right now, though, which is a steal for new vinyl and a limited release to boot...

Ye Olde Worlde 33rpm records I'm only laughing because, even though I invested in the vinyl copy of the complete(ish) Secret Messages, I don't have a turntable now. Something to add to my list to Santa, I thought

Great your ELO album collection is now complete Grroosss. Which one completed it today. Don’t they look really well when you see them lined up together and in the right order of release. This is the reason why vinyl should never die out,

This is the reason why vinyl should never die out, No Answer was the last one. I caved and bought it on eBay last week after nearly two years of searching local record shops and fairs proved fruitless. OOTB and my personal copy of ANWR (not displayed here due to lack of graffiti ) were the only others I cheated on; I did eventually see copies of them come through the shop but I was too impatient given that they're ELO's most iconic albums. Well, unless you consider ordering FOON from the UK or receiving a copy of Zoom from Craig Fruin to be cheating...

Throw in a copy of Zoom so my sis can have her own, the original lyrics sheet/sleeve for No Answer and ELO II, a cardboard spaceship, and the poster that came with Discovery to sweeten the deal, and then *maybe* I'll consider your offer.....

When you say lyric sheet,did you mean the lyrics printed on the inner sleeve?

I think it’s this sheet from UK version of the first album.
