bubinga5 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 My sister played David Bowie earlier, it was Lets Dance, she thinks that is the coolest record shes ever heard. we often get into discussions about music, this is possibly the coolest record ive ever heard, and for the record, i would so smoke you on the bass bitch.

Junkyard Rocket Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Surely the law of cool is that once something has been described as cool, It ceases to be cool. I would never describe my beautiful [url="http://www.theresidents.co.uk/museum/browse.php?id=186"]12" picture disc of the Residents eskimo LP[/url] as cool as the eyeballed ones transcend all that nonsense.

skej21 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 My original 1959 pressing of 'Time Out' by Dave Brubeck Quartet is up there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 To be cool, it has to be on vinyl. Nothing on cd is cool, nothing digital is cool. My coolest record? Probably Diamond Head's White album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterFingers Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 An original UA edition of Can's 'Tago Mago" (with the pocket sleeve) or a 1978 Jamaican pressing (complete with glue on the label) of 'Leggo Dub"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger2611 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I guess it's my original pressing of Public Image by Public Image Ltd, nothing rare or special about it but to me cool because it was the first record I actually chose to buy rather than something my parents brought for me (Convoy by C W McCall!)

John Schoen Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Mine has to be Live At Leeds from The Who. The scribbled label on the disk with the text "Crackling noises OK, do not correct". Vinyl of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neepheid Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I don't have any records, but my Dad has one of the 12" picture discs of Curved Air, "Air Conditioning", that's pretty cool in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhysP Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I wouldn't call it "cool" (because I'm not 15) but one of my favourites is my Vinyl copy of Talas' "Sink your teeth into that" that is signed "To Rhys from William". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfisher Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 To me, 'cool' implies something laid back and not sensation-seeking or wildly popular. I'd probably choose something by JJ Cale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twincam Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 New order Blue Monday 12inch with the cover cut out to look like a old floppy disk and the code bar running down the side. Cool single cool album cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yepmop Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 For me a 45 rpm single of "All The Young Dudes" by Mott The Hoople, I was/am a huge Mott fan and have all their singles on vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earbrass Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I still have tons of vinyl. Not sure what's "cool" though. Could it be something from my stack of 70's dub - [i]The Best Dressed Chicken in Town[/i], perhaps? Or perhaps some Professor Longhair? I've got a Sun Ra disk somewhere - no idea of the title. Or maybe the classic Gerry Anderson story LP "A Trip to Marineville" / "Thunderbirds Are Go". There's an EP of nursery rhymes in there somewhere featuring the voice of Boris Karloff, among others. But perhaps pride of place in "cool" terms is the album of Russian Folk songs performed by the Red Army Choir: "[i]Kalinka![/i]" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
