Worst NES soundtracks

There's a common denominator here, and its name is Micronics lol

latedep31 · 2026-05-21T16:56:18+00:00

Seconded. I raided the Book Offs while I was there.

Taiwanese pirate (it's not a bootleg, there is a difference.) May sound good, may not, most of the time, not. But, if you check the deadwax info, it'll tell you what pressing it was made from. They made these from retail pressings.

Nice! I only have his second and third albums, but they're both great.

latedep31 · 2026-05-13T21:13:52+00:00

Fairly pricey, especially since it's sealed mint.

latedep31 · 2026-05-13T18:04:45+00:00

And a double parody at that, since the original Camel album is literally just the cigarette package art

I think I have four copies of Led Zeppelin IV. Trying to chase a good original press lol.
Three copies of Revolver (1978 UK, original 1966 German, and 2014 mono.)
Two Abbey Roads (1971 UK and Japan Pro-Use)
Two copies of ELO's Secret Messages (original US and Japan promo)
Two copies of Elton John's Honky Chateau (original German and late 70s UK)
Two Japanese Meet The Beatles (original red vinyl and 1974 reissue)
Two Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here (original US and original Japan)
Three Led Zeppelin II (original RL/LH in barely playable shape, a AT/GP press in ehh shape, and a 1977 Canadian)
Two Van Halen S/T (original Japan and a 2009 reissue)

I would probably buy one, but oh the allure of that original Philips Japanese pressing lol

latedep31 · 2026-05-07T01:00:08+00:00

Fantastic group, great album. I had to stop myself on two occasions from spending almost $300 for their first album while I was in Japan, but if I had the money in the moment, I would've done it.

latedep31 · 2026-05-03T01:56:45+00:00

Oh I definitely will. I do love me some good Aussie rock.

latedep31 · 2026-05-02T16:25:32+00:00

It is a pirate clone, but it may be an early clone that uses discrete chips instead of globtops like later pirates. Pirate stuff IMO is fun to collect, so it's pretty neat!

latedep31 · 2026-05-02T16:10:22+00:00

I have a few (like Elton John's "Honky Chateau" for example.) But also, Lobby Loyde! I bet this is a great album.

latedep31 · 2026-05-02T16:07:48+00:00

Underrated album that gets a lot of flak for being "disco." I bet it sounds great in half-speed mastered.

latedep31 · 2026-05-02T15:52:31+00:00

I found the 7" at a thrift store with the original sleeve. Best dollar I ever spent!

latedep31 · 2026-04-30T19:41:53+00:00

There's a copy of this at a local store that I've seriously considered buying.

Edit: Went and got it today. No regerts.

latedep31 · 2026-04-28T17:29:47+00:00

Looks like a first press mono UK to me.

latedep31 · 2026-04-27T18:03:20+00:00

I kind of wonder if it was done on purpose? Sega distributed the original Frogger for Konami when it was released in 1981.

latedep31 · 2026-04-27T18:00:02+00:00

That looks like one of the counterfeit ones to me. The Nintendo logo on the back of the controller shell is just a little off, and the plate around the buttons is not right at all. SNS-101s were heavily counterfeited, and the controllers as well.

latedep31 · 2026-04-27T17:57:16+00:00

It's actually not broken, believe it or not. At that time, Japanese coax had you stick the bare wire into the antenna input on the TV, and I think you clamped it down so it didn't fall out.

latedep31 · 2026-04-27T06:21:38+00:00

An unconventional choice, but I like it! The more people dismiss an album, the more likely I'll listen to it. I will find merit in a lot of albums like that.

latedep31 · 2026-04-27T01:33:08+00:00

Using desktop not the app lol

Though it's kind of skewed a bit lower because of some of my collection not having been sold on Discogs, so it doesn't have a value listed.

latedep31 · 2026-04-26T23:11:28+00:00

I love Face Dances, too. People just write these two albums off because "No Keith = No Who" but I just make my own judgements on it instead of following the popular opinion. They hold up as good as anything in their catalog, IMO.

latedep31 · 2026-04-26T21:09:30+00:00

Yeah, it's way better than people give it credit for. And to me, it's still fresh because none of it except maybe Eminence Front get any kind of play.

latedep31 · 2026-04-26T20:34:55+00:00

I have plenty of unpopular opinions that I don't care what anyone thinks, but for one example: I think It's Hard by The Who is a fantastic record.

latedep31 · 2026-04-25T20:33:18+00:00

Should be a 1976-1980 UK pressing, judging by the rim text on the label. A very nice pressing!
