Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here (1975)
Syd gets his obligatory annual outing. I never tire of this. Ok, it’s “Dad Rock” but if you can’t appreciate this as a stone cold classic, you are musically brain dead.
commentsWhile browsing the vinyl bins recently I came across this beast of a box set newly remastered on 4 big slabs of vinyl. It had a sticker price of $62.
Clearly there was something wrong. Floyd records, especially the newly minted ones, are notoriously expensive. “Relics” for example, which is a single LP remaster, and sitting right next to “Pulse”, was also $62.
I went ahead and bought it without hesitation, then ventured back the next day to see if this “error” was corrected. It wasn’t, and purchased another copy. I just made a $40 profit from selling it on Trade Me.
I could have made quite a bit more, it actually retails elsewhere at a minimum of $150 but I just needed to share the love. Albeit with a little bit of a profit thrown in.

comments2017. What a fucking pig’s breakfast of a year. It’s been great in so many ways personally, a new Grandchild, a Wedding in Australia and we’re not bankrupt.
