Very cool. Will/Do you ever play the records. What do they sounds like?
How did you come across this in the first place?
I absolutely do play it, but I still have to manage my plays considering its rarity. It sounds great, and the sound of the record really pops out when you hear the record as compared to online sources.
I randomly decided to just look at who had copies of Falling and Laughing on Discogs (Which you can see in the statistics section). Then I just thought "Would anyone be willing to actually sell it to me?", and then I message everyone who was visible that had a copy. Most of them said that they treasured this record (for obvious reasons) and would never get rid of it. Then one of the guys emailed me and said he was downsizing his collection, as he was downsizing his home as well. I negotiated with him for about two weeks, and I was able to get a bunch of records, including every other Postcard Orange Juice record.
