Pete x 2

Lukas and I went to the annual Vinyl Record Fair in Vasa yesterday. Last year I found  "All The Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes" at the very beginning of my search for interesting vinyls. I then browsed thousands and thousands of vinyls searching for some other of Townshends' solo albums but found none.


This year I was much luckier, we started browsing for albums and after 15 minutes Lukas came over and told me that he had found "White City" in a box further down the aisle so I went there and picked it up. I browsed the other boxes of the same seller and in another 10 minutes I found "Empty Glass" ! 


The envelope of "White City" was a little dirty and abrased but the inner sleeve and record itself were virtually unused. No scratches no dust. "Empty Gass" was in even better shape. Only 5 EUR each! Yay!

Excellent finds!!

Empty Glass is my fav out of all those Albums.
But, then again, I haven't heard a Pete Album I didn't like ;)

I absolutely agree with you Grace!

Fantastic, Hans, so this is where you got the Vasa album cover idea from :)

Hi Val and welcome back!
Yes, that is true!
I also told Ingela that I wanted to do the "Empty Glass" album cover also but she was rather reluctant to that idea.
I still wonder why... ;)
