hard to explain, very late 70's pop, in an Elvis Costello style...

http://www.cdquest.com

Re: collectors' corner

_two_track_pearls_girl_
 

i thought i had all the cd-single
versions of 'pearls girl'...

but i should be getting this soon:

1. Short version
2. Tin there

• Country of manufactory: EU
• Label: Logic
• Year of issue: 1997
• Cat.#: 743 214 5099 2
• Condition (sleeve): Near Mint
• Additional information: Small writing (date) in top corner.

Re: collectors' corner
 

Wow, that's really cool. Never heard of that one either. Do you think it could be a French release? I looks quite similar to the French 2 track Born Slippy (Logic, cat# 74321416062).

If it is, then there's a French 2 track cardboard version of both BS and PG,
(and a German 2 disk version of both BS and PG).

Let us know when you receive it. :)

2. Darren Price - Lose No Time 12" - record fair £1.00!

3. Darren Price - Blueprints 12" - record fair £1.00!

trying to get some old Pricey stuff, now he's affiliated officially with the gang ;)

Re: collectors' corner
 

Blueprints is a great track...any remixes on the 12"?

Re: collectors' corner
 

no its just a three track ep...nice though...

_adidas_trainers_
 

well, i was just reading up on
'new orders' site, that peter
saville had designed some
trainers : http://www.press.adidas.com/en/deskt...spx/tabid-225/

(this coming after he designed
some levis jeans)..

and it reminded me about the
underworld adidas trainers..

i see there are still some available..
and they are pretty decently priced
(around US$100 or so)..

i figured they would be worth a lot
more by now...but i guess since there
isn't as much a demand for them anymore?

anyways, so did most people here already
buy them? how did they work out?
(or do you not wear them..)

Re: collectors' corner
 

Yeah, I got some last year - I paid £112 for them and wasn't going to wear them originally, but they were just too beautiful not to wear. I love them. I love the way the light catches them and makes them shine bright white. I love the random bits of text embedded into them.

Awesome. Really. :D

Re: collectors' corner
 

I also got my pair last year and wear them pretty much every day. They are well worn-out already - the rubber sole has come loose in places. Not really impressed with the quality, but they are bloody nice anyway.

Re: _adidas_trainers_
 

eeeew

those Saville ones are gross...i'm sure he could have come up with some better looking sneakers....

still...its his design, let it be i suppose...i think the UW ones are amongst the best designed of the 35 in the anniversary series...

Re: collectors' corner
 

How many colors were released of the Underworld Adidas?

1/2 the pics i've seen look beige, some look pink, and some look white.

How would i know i'm buying legit ones, not fakes?

Re: collectors' corner
 

I think there is just one version, but because the uppers are made with 3M reflective fabric they can look very different depending on the light.

There've been quite a few pairs available on eBay, and there are also some still available from Adidas specialty shops like Harputs.

I don't think they've been going for high enough prices to make it worth counterfeiting them -- the design is non-standard enough that it would probably be prohibitively expensive to ramp up production for even cheap knock-offs.

Re: collectors' corner
 

They've got reflective material. Normally they are some kind of beige but with light they are reflective white. I've never seen them in reality, though. I would buy them but the biggest ones that pop up on ebay have size 11 and i need 12.:rolleyes:
thanks:)

i would bid, but i already have 3 out of the 4..

Re: _adidas_trainers_
 

You're being diplomatic. Those aren't considered real shoes for selling, are they?

I don't like them. Once held them in my hands in a shop and was quite disappointed. The idea with the reflective material is cool but personally I don't fancy beige/white, especially on shoes. I have to say I don't like most of the anniversary series shoes.

Re: collectors' corner
 

Shipping rates for locations outside Europe are exorbitant but the price of the record is a real bargain:

UK 12" DREADZONE - Zion Youth (UNDERWORLD) 07115/2.

EDIT: Here it is again. Does anybody spot a difference?

Re: collectors' corner
 

Just ordered my UW Adidas from Harputs.

SHould be here shortly!

http://cgi.ebay.com/Underworld-RARE-...QQcmdZViewItem

Re: collectors' corner
 

ok, i got it today,

nope its not french per se....it appears to be
another release that may be specific
to Germany, or some other european country,
since it says made in EU.....although as
mentioned before there was a slimline
3 track pearls girl from germany already..

CD5: 1996 GE (Logic / BMG; LOC 209 / 743 214 4379 2)
3:47 01. pearl's girl (short version)
8:11 02. pearl's girl (tin there)
8:57 03. born slippy.NUXX (original instrumental)

i think the french born slippy promo might
be the only specific one from there?

i like the card sleeve and the artwork though..

another nice addition to the collection..

Re: collectors' corner

normal covers..

Re: collectors' corner
 

The Spanish promos came with no artwork. The Dutch BS promo has the STITI artwork with 'Underworld - Born Slippy' written on it. I have scans, if you're interested...where should I post the pics?
The Japanese KoS looks like the others, just another shade of green (turquoise). The French BS 12" is not very exciting, and won't fit in my scanner. :) I think there's a pic on discogs.

Re: collectors' corner
 

yeah, i have the japanese KOS single actually..

hmm..there's so many file sharing sites out there
now, but i don't know which is good for you?

how big are they, maybe you can just email
them to me?

i'd like all of them, since they have barcode, and
all the discography information on them..

Something for the collectors (and other big fans I guess) to look out for in the near future, Perou is at the moment selecting pictures for a book he's going to produce.
