I'm certain it's MATLAF with the bottle lyric sheet...I'd put Andy's CHSIB vinyl on it!

Would you like to send me your copy so I can verify this information myself?
I'll send it right back of course

I'm taking that as a legally binding contract

LucyK! · 15 Feb 2012, 20:53

That is how confident I am!

**The Flying Mouse** · 15 Feb 2012, 21:02

Last time it was discussed it was mentioned that the picture disc edition came with a lyric sheet but the normal version did not.

Again, that's not to say what was said on the thread was correct though

I've got one, the vinyl isn't really that brown to be honest, more an off black.

It's interesting that "Meat Loaf" is spelled correctly on the labels of this edition, while on the U.K. release it is spelled as one word.

Do you have a pic? I've only seen the cover so far, it had a blue frame, as far as I remember.

I'll dig it out over the next day or two, it's locked away at the moment in a strong box under a pile of other stuff.

Thanks, Andy.

How does that go then

I don't have CHSIB on vinyl either. Bat II should have been a double-LP in EVERY territory. The single disc version is HORRIBLE to listen too. Part of the problems with squeezing 75 minutes onto a single LP is that the maximum volume level is drastically reduced. This means horrible background noise!

aren't vinyl albums cool things to own

i can't imagine the digital age of mp3's etc having the same appeal to people

LucyK! · 16 Feb 2012, 00:16

I absolutely love my vinyls, as a kid the stereo I had had a turntable on so I actually did listen to them, nothing beats it.

Worringly I think the digital age will also see the end of iconic album covers - something else that translates so wonderfully on a 12" bit of card!

Whoops! There are too many sections and subsections for me to keep up with, sometimes.... Especially when my iphone forum runner app doesnt explain/describe them.... Sorry! :)

If you think the CHSIB LP is rare, try finding this one.

I was in the running for it on eBay but it just went too far out of my price range and I let go. Then when you told me the price was a bit outrageous I was glad I did.

evil nickname · 17 Feb 2012, 16:20

Did I say that? I wouldn't know what a fair price for it would be. All I know is that I paid €28 for mine, and I consider that a steal.

On the other hand, I saw a promo of More Than You Deserve on eBay recently, and the seller wanted, what was it, $1700 for it. Now that's outrageous.

I have all albums on vinyl accept HCTB, WTTN, and HIAHB, I have the 12" BOOH Picture disc and blood red vinyl, Modern Girl 12" Picture disc and Picture shaped disc only with the 12" if you really want to Picture and a bunch of 7" LP singles and 3 versions of Stone and Meat loaf one which i got meet to sign back in 2006 and the 12" BOOH Promo album and What you see is what you get 7" Vinyl demo.

Deena J · 29 Feb 2012, 19:55

Well yay me, I finally tracked down all the studio albums on vinyl ---except the illusive CHSIB. And I read somewhere (probably on here) that HIAHB would NOT be made as vinyl? Not sure... I can't decide if I want to collect the singles or not. That task seems a little daunting to me. HAHA
