Gluey porch ...vinyl question

[laughingwlucifer65]

I picked up a copy of gluey at some record store for 30 bucks...and i was wondering if you guys know anything about its authenticity

now knowing the original LP came out in 86... it is out of print. i kinda figured it would be a bootleg or something knowing that..but what the hell

heres pics of the original issue..




and the 2 attatched pics are of my copy...ive noticed 2 differences in the spacing of the info below the tracklisting...and the other difference is the copy i got has made in micronesia in the bottom.

if anybody can tell me info about this issue it would be greatly appreciated

There was a recent bootleg printed; you'll find a lot on ebay that are still sealed. 

[laughingwlucifer65]

Yeah, thats what I assumed.

some people are saying the sound of the boot is better than the original..
probably because it came from the CD. what do you think on the matter??

[laughingwlucifer65]

i'm not sure if your asking me or butthole, but this is the only copy of gluey I have (other than an mp3 d/l) and compared to the MP3's, the vinyl's sound is noticeably better, but that's just vinyl..its usually hard for me to tell a difference but i can sorta tell the bootleg's quality is slightly better.

I was asking you - thanks for the reply

[laughingwlucifer65]

Welcome..but do you think 30 bucks is the right price for this sorta thing? i thought it was a little expensive but vinyls are just larger and more expensive and i really dont know the rarity of this issue...it was sealed when i got it

[anaconda]

well, a better sounding boot for 30 is more reasonable than an original for 100-150. 

P.S. I have some U2 boots that are worth more than the original vinyl so it all depends on
why you bought it. Supply and demand really.

[laughingwlucifer65]

yea thats true ha....but U2 ? really? 

[anaconda]

yes sir i've made a fortune off of U2

[anaconda]

I also sell Pearl Jam boots for an amazing profit

[laughingwlucifer65]

well...if thats what tickles your fancy i cant stop you :p even though i cant stand u2 im not going to harass you for what you like hahaha

[anaconda]

I don't neccesarily like them. but alot of people do - and they pay big money for it!
my biggest score so far was $250 for a mint vinyl copy of U2 - Boy

[laughingwlucifer65]

so you just have like a free, random U2 collection?? or are you actually buying it? hahaha

[Buckwheat]

U2 are alright.  I think it's bono's rock star-self righteous attitude that turns people off.
