Pretty sure that one's a bootleg, isn't it?
Amazing cover, though. Better than most of the legit ones from either band (other than DMDS, at least!)

That is a weird album though. It is a Mayhem/Emperor split and the insert said limited to 500. The label on the record has nothing printed on it. It's just orange. I don't think it was mastered either because it is way quieter than any of my other records. The music on it however rules.

PS-- Awesome looking amp and turntable you have there. What are you running, if I may ask?

It's a Thorens TD-125 "made in West Germany under Swiss licence" with a Shure 3009 arm.
I lucked out because they are highly coveted now, I think I paid $200 back in '99.

Bottom pic:The amp is a Pioneer SA-9500 II, which was manufactured '78 through '80, and the speakers are a pair JBL 3-way Decade 36 from when they made them in Los Angeles.

(the first couple pics were a McIntosh Mac1500 with a pair of Vanderstein 2c)

Craigslist rules.

I've still got a box of cassettes.
Rarely played, but I've still got all my old cassette mix tapes, purely for nostalgic reasons. The songs chosen, the order they play in, the way certain sections sound fluttery or drop out, the way a song gets cut off as the tape side ends..it all sends you back to times and places and what you were doing and where your head was at at the time. Road trips, girlfriends, speeding tickets..Can't toss those out now can I?

That I'm not sure, probably. The Emperor side has 3 covers, a Bathory song, a Hellhamer sond, a Mayhem song; and then an original. The Mayhem side is all originals as far as I know. The album cover is one's of the coolest/scariest I own for sure.

That's awesome! The world's most stylish lavatory stall. And room-y, too, from the looks of it.

I'm listening to the bootleg I made of the James Taylor concert at Tanglewood last night. I kind of wondered how 'efficient' the ban on handheld recording/photographic devices would be, and the answer apparently is "zilch." Although-- the security guards were carrying what did look like guns...

So surreptitiously and with premeditation aforethought I placed my inconspicuous Tascam DR-05 on my knee, bound not for Louisiana, observing that every sixth person was lofting their cellphone/cameras in the air and capturing their own verite memento/illegal productions.

I think we got the triumph of mob mentality in all its glory, here.
