New Model Army collection on Facebook
« on: December 07, 2014, 03:27:29 PM »
Hello folks, new to the forum, but do know a few of you on here.  I've been slowly uploading my NMA vinyl collection on Facebook.  I still have loads of stuff needed, so if anyone has anything they'd like to sell or advice to give or even stuff I'm missing that I don't know about, please feel free to comment or email :)  I'm not done uploading yet so keep watching for more if you're interested, and if you like what you see, give me a 'like' on the page.  Hopefully it might prove to be a half decent point of reference to any prospective collectors out there.  I know there are bigger collections than mine out there, but to my knowledge there's no way of seeing the records you might be looking for, until now  ;)  Besides, Stuart Morrow 'likes' it, so go check it out!

.....that'll keep the little buggers going for a while....... ;D

Well done, clearly a labour of love  ;)

Ha!  yeah sorry, Facebook is a little limited in how it displays stuff.  If you click photos, and then albums it's a bit easier  ;)  Glad you like it.  Labour of love, of course, but I'm also one of those sad gits that can't rest till I find it all.  In this case I suspect it will take a lifetime, but at least it keeps me off the streets.  :)

There's a couple of chaps on here who have done this and more including the CD's.  There are so many of those it's nigh on impossible to get them all.  Luckily, I'm a vinyl only freak and that's where it ends.  I don't own a single CD!  I even have trouble buying those pesky 10"s.  Nowhere to store them you see!!  haha

Wow, it's always nice to see how dedicated some are with this.

Any of you great collectors know the Live at the Ritz single of All of This? Is it a rare release or does it have a big press?

Found it by coincidence and bought it with a ridiculous cheap price.

Thanks Knievel  :)

Must admit it's a little tedious to get it out there, but with a decent phone and something like dropbox it all moves over pretty efficiently I find.  Getting all the vinyl out is also very theraputic.  Many a memory from gigs and hazy vinyl deals of years gone by.  The sad thing is, this is my second go at doing this.  Before this collection I had another large collection and sold a lot of it in 1994 for some dumb assed reason or other.  Don't even remember it now.  Upshot was all I kept was the acetates and 7"s. Idiot!  I think bar the bloody Finnish Vengeance LP, I have replaced it all now, but for sure at twice the price of what I got for selling the others.  Live and learn and all that... :-[

As for the fun bit....absafuckinlutley!  I love this stuff.  Made even better having been to the Forum gig last night.  31 songs....  Worth every penny!

So, is the Finnish Vengeance LP the same that has first the album and then Price, 1984, No Man's Land and then 2 tracks from John Peel Sessions? 18 songs.

I've seen people are talking about the Finnish version on here (f.e Stoney in some older thread about rarities).

Hey Dawnrazer I'm very envious but seriously happy for those of you who made it - just saw the setlist - oh boy!  Great setlist.  My only consolation is the family thing I had to deal with this weekend went really well - my brother and my father made some way to making peace with each other - I have to say it was worth missing the gig for.
And regarding the collection and photies etc - yes there's something about doing this that keeps the collection alive and not stagnating on the shelf.  Handling the stuff keeps it breathing.  I've been dealing for years and I have to part with things I'd like to keep but the dealing keeps that stuff alive.  Don't know if you know of Discogs but its a place where dealers and collectors work together to compile a comprehensive database of all released material.  Your passion would be very much appreciated there - just a subtle hint  ;) I know its heaps of work and you're already on a roll with the facebook page - but if the fancy of re living this collection again ever rears I'd just like to say Discogs is a worthy site to contribute to.
All the best man, and HUUUUGE well done on geting this collection listed.  Good stuff.
