so was it you who outbid me? i always transfer my vhs > dvd then upload it but you can just plug yr video player into your pc and capture it that way. i'm not exactly sure how to do it that way though.

have you got a vhs > dvd recorder?

No. I only have an old vhs recorder, plugged with antenna cable (do you say so?) to my computer's tv card (do you say so?), just to watch old video tapes.

Hehehehe - small world. Noticed you're in Germany, which is not too far from Holland. :D So if you would be willing to lend me the tape (I can pay for postage by PayPal or IBAN/SWIFT) so I can make a proper rip out of it, a lot of boardies would be really grateful and I would shower you with SY goodies.

have you got the video yet? what's it like?

Nö. I’m still waiting …

But I got the Hits $ Corruption compilation LP with the cassette with the interview. (But not on eBay.)

bump

hey who got the bang zoom zine/tape?

not me, i watch too many things and forget to bid sometimes....

there's another one up now but with no tape

me broke
me want scans (do "we" have them somewhere already? kinda lost track of the "scans" thread...)

i've definitely never seen scans nor heard the interview (?) from the bang zoom zine... still can't believe 'kat n hat' only saw 'official' release via this zine!

(on second thought, i MAY have heard the interview...anyone?)

did it ever turn up? what's it like?

It's lost in the post ..... any French or German postman here? You got it? How is it?

no way, sorry to hear that man...

i wish i had the zine..here is the music from the tape if anyone needs it

The zine is still being sold (Item # 170577661154) and there *is* a scan. It says it is issue #14 -- SY discog says #7? Were there 2?

The price is madness - and is it legit?

Saw a 2CD bootleg (digipack, very nice) in a shop near my work the other day - it combined the French 2006 session (Oui FM, if I recall correctly) and the 2008 Battery Park show*. It was 25 euros - as soon as it drops to 20 euros it's MINE (insert evil cackling laughter here).

*: I know, ****ing lazy bootleggers - couldn't even be bothered to download filler from Utkonos, but just used an official release.

bootlegers is right!

The same people are selling various Black Sessions CDs. To judge by the discussions on other forums they're almost certainly bootlegs and CDRs to boot. Be interesting to know if they're pre-FM sources though.

That digipack sounds kinda interesting - I can't always resist these either (as you know!). I wonder if they sourced Battery Park from the Japan CD.

I saw a weird vinyl 12" pirate in a shop in Antwerp last month - Master Dik on one side and (from memory) 4 Tunna Brix on the other. Label was Sonic Riot Records, cat no something like RIOT01. The 30 euros they wanted was more than it's novelty value really merited :-)

I've heard the Mogwai one, and it has very annoying fades and gaps between tracks. Not sure if all the discs are like that, though....

Re the digipack: want me to pick it up? I think they used the CD - IIRC the Battery Park part was 10 tracks.

12" pirate: that's indeed madness. The max I would pay for 4 Tunna Brix is 10 USD. And how do you cram all(?) of Master-Dik on one 12" side?

This guy is selling proof copies of the poster for EJST&NS. I bought one and they are huge....pretty sweet. He said that he would ship worldwide too.

a lot of 2 posters for sale at ebay at the moment:

item no. 180629122132

Sonic Youth- Sensational Fix, Bolzano Italy, 2 rare exhibition posters

This lot of two 2 very rare posters, which advertise the Sonic Youth Sensational Fix exhibition in the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Ary, Bolzano, Italy, 11. Oc. 2008 - 4. Jan. 2009 and the opening concert 11. Oct. 2008

Both posters are printed on heavy stock, glossy paper and are in mint condition, stored flat, never hung up.
They both measure: 34 cms x 49 cms (= 13,4 inches x 19,3 cms). Nice big size but not oversized, beautiful to frame (and you don`t have to spend a fortune on xl frames).

Poster no. 1 (head with exploding covers) is in my humble opinion THE most beautiful and colourful Sonic Youth poster I have ever seen, pure eye candy. Designed by Dutch artist Zeloot.

Poster no. 2 (red bull head) was designed by aka SAVX, aka Savage Pencil, who has designed some record covers for Sonic Youth in the past: Sonic Youth: Death Valley '69 (Blast First - 1985) 12" EP, Sonic Youth: Halloween (Blast First - 1985) 12" 45. He aslo worked for Black Flag, Rocket from the Crypt and many other bands. Have you ever seen this poster before? No?! Thought so: this one is RAAAAREEE!!!!!!!

This may be your only chance to get those two posters, so act quickly! Gone is gone!

Are you sure ?

I've came across several people who owned those kind of CD from eBay. It's funny to see people who bought the same CD having different track listing. Some had missing tracks, others were into is the right order, and sometimes filled by tracks with other session. Of course this is not specified in the tracklisting, as the back tracklisting only reflects the information on France Inter's website.
I must also say that some of them are MP3 sourced, so I would not rely at all on the quality of those CD.

Poster no. 1 (head with exploding covers)
I 've got one of these on Ebay it's at the framing shop now !!
I also bought the black Sessions French live cd it's excellent quality a nice item !!
BUT Today i 've just bought Satan Is Boring 12" well chuffed !!

YOU! :D i saw that earlier and made an offer on it. i couldn't afford what they were asking though.

Damn, I've never even seen one in 25 years of collecting.

Is this one worth having maybe?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Sonic-Youth-Wall...item27b8d10b83

Yeah when i saw it my heart was in my mouth !! Amazing ! Been looking for years!! I started collecting SY after i bought 'Sister' on the day of release!!

Pissflaps, I just missed out on a couple of cheap Brazillian albums because I got distracted with five minutes to go :(

i ONCE AGAIN FORGOT TO BID on vinyl 'nyc ghosts'... the only full-length i still need...

i figured you'd be the one to ask...but why is this one out of print? Just curious since all other LPs within 3 years of it are sold in the webstore.

Its also the only one i still need!

i see new copies for sale on ebay all the time and at a reasonable price.
