Where can I get the australian albums?
Hey, I am looking for the australian versions of High Voltage, TNT, Let There Be Rock, Dirty Deeds, and the european edition of Powerage. As I live in the states hardly any stores carry them, and I don't want to pay Amazon, or Ebay's prices for them, so if anyone can help my out that'd be great.
Do you want them for collection reasons or just to listen to them?
What I do is make CD-Rs from the American releases of HV, DDDDC and LTBR, '74 Jailbreak, Volts, Backtracks, and there you go, Australian albums! (Hopefully this will help.) Don't know about the UK Powerage, though. Just look for downloads somewhere and eventually you'll find it.
ive gotten dirty deeds, let there be rock and powerage through ebay for actually if youre patient and look hard and long enough youll find at reasonable prices (cept dirty deeds was too reasonable since its all beat up) but ive gotten tnt and high voltage at a farmers market through a guy who picks up not rare vinyl but what i think of as (special haha) i find real good stuff that was, i picked up the full picture of poison open up and say ahh before it got censored, judas priests first album, nevermind the bolloks heres the sex pistols, master of puppets, and almost nirvana nevermind, but anywho finding collectors in your area is a superb way to finding this stuff at reasonable prices, and the vinyl is almost always mint
You could try some Australian websites. I had a quick look and some of them had the titles you mentioned. Best one is probably Red Eye Records (www.redeye.com.au) Some others you could try are Chaos Music (www.chaos.com) JB HI-FI (www.jbhifionline.com.au) I live in Australia and often see the Aussie versions in shops but it does seem they are getting rarer.. of course I've got them all!
ebay is probably a good idea for not very rare albums. Not all sellers are pricks, although prices have gone high with AC/DC return.
Yes and that also.Spent a thousand $ ticket and a hotel to buy something that you can get with 30 bucks. :P
OK thanks guys, I want them for collecting, and listening. I wanna have a complete collection of their albums, I will certainly try EBay, and the Australian websites.
Yeah, I'm with doctoracdc72. I just cobble all the tracks together from all the US releases, Volts and Backtracks and BAM!!! Australian releases.
