Gamma Ray - Born To Hula

[yam83]

Awful quality.

[gramoukdoom]

HD pleaaaaase! What is ur TT and cart man?

Lucky bastard ;) Thats a fine piece of record.

[swaflam]

@gramoukdoom TT is a Project. What do you mean with cart?

Thanks for the compliments.

[swaflam]

@johnnythecrooker Tell me why.

[albooga]

show off :)

[swaflam]

@albooga Oh Yes, I am. Never denied that.

[GRandPavisStalker]

I want your vinyl collection. I want it so much I don't even have to give an example as to how much. Just the want. e.o Still good for you! =)

[swaflam]

@GRandPavisStalker Come and get it! ;-)

[clawsXoffXthelunatic]

@swaflam I would but my schedule is a little full. Stalkings a full time job you know, a lot of documentation of daily life activities you know. ;D I wish you and your amazing collection many happy moons. 8]

[swaflam]

@clawsXoffXthelunatic Thanks a lot man!

[Pablojv08]

I hate you.

[swaflam]

@Pablojv08 I can imagine why. Try to turn it to something positive.

[lecrapauddejerri9]

Nice vinyl collection.

[swaflam]

@lecrapauddejerri9 Thank you. How about yours?

[flowjob2]

what color vinyl is your queens of the stone age/self-titled album ?

I saw one for sale on discogs for about 900 bucks,a green one...

[swaflam]

@flowjob2 It's a black one. Green ones are not the original pressing, as far as I know.

[nickthelick]

@flowjob2 Green is original press, so is the yellow version, and obviously the black and so is the blue version (the blue is an 'official' bootleg, the band pressed those themselves for their tour)[2500 black, 198 green, 302 orange/yellow, 198 or so blue vinyl versions and a handful of swirl/splatter colored vinyl, there's also 1 or 2 gold versions, Alfredo has/had one]. The boots came out in 2003, there's a red one and loads of black ones. Fancy buying mine? I have them all. :D *smug git*

[nickthelick]

And the Gamma Ray 7": Edition of 2000 copies, all on clear vinyl. First 1000 have the "G with the ray coming out of it" record label. Second 1000 have a pattern of squares over circles. Unofficial repressed in 2008 on black and yellow vinyl. And there's two Into The Void 10" - 5000 copies on purple vinyl (some on purple marbled vinyl, very few on blue transparent vinyl).

Second pressing on orange vinyl.

[swaflam]

@nickthelick Great info, I suppose I have all the originals. :-)

[flowjob2]

@nickthelick I only have the red bootleg...crap

I would like to buy one of your originals,but i'm afraid that would cost me a hell of a lot of money :p

I'll trade you my sister for it?

[swaflam]

@flowjob2 Can you send me some pics of your sister?

[swaflam]

@nickthelick I you have them all, prove it with a similar video. if you have the gold one, I'd like to trade it for the latest QOTSA album on cd ;-)

[nickthelick]

@swaflam Hey there... I never thought about replying with a vid actually... I'll see if I can manage it (bit of a technophobe)... Nah, I don't have the gold one myself, but Alfredo apparently does. I didn't believe it myself when I heard about it (I mean, pressing just a couple of copies of a certain colour?!) but yep, they've been done. I'm acquaintances with Lydia Russell on FBook,she ran Man's Ruin Records (Kozik just did the artwork). And yeah, SHE has some real cool one-of-a-kind records.

[happybirthdayto007]

boobies!

[swaflam]

@happybirthdayto007 That is your interpretation, not mine.

[Rugrash]

Wow it's like your in my house going thru MY collection! Too bad I didn't buy duplicates ;-) I used to buy one of everything when Man's Ruin was in business. I had a box that Jamie and Lane used to fill monthly and send to me.

[swaflam]

@Rugrash Really? Sounds good. Pick your camera and make a similar movie. I'm very curious...

[ThePrommel]

i fuckin love this song!

is it possible to post this version in a better quality?

this version has a much better structure than the other versions on utube....

ivgot to get this lp

[swaflam]

@ThePrommel Yeah it's fuckin'g great. No, I will not post better quality. But have a look on eBay. It's seems to be that the original version is there. You have 7 hours from now...

[ladykatey]

Gotta love the Youtube vids of people playing records. This was useful in explaining to a friend about Gamma Ray and how Chris Goss named QOTSA.

[swaflam]

@ladykatey Yes, it has sopme history...

[BayAreaSinner]

Amazing collection!

[swaflam]

Thanks a lot. If you are in the neighbourhood you can visit me and listen to some records.

[auralpeak]

this is very nice..you're good my friend..

[swaflam]

thank you!

[crashbashBearminator]

I found an old bootleg of "Give the Mule What He Wants".

[swaflam]

show it to me!

[crashbashBearminator]

@swaflam It's on my profile somewhere. I think it's in my playlist of rare QOTSA songs

[RushAnthem69]

@swaflam SHOW IT TO MEEE! That is my absolute FAVORITE song from the debut!

[crashbashBearminator]

Any Idea on how to get a hold of any of these?

[swaflam]

I'm afraid you have to go back in time or spend lots of money.

[crashbashBearminator]

"TO THE TIME MACHINE!"

"The time machine's broken, sir."

"TO THE EBAY-MOBILE!"

[MarissaCadiz]

OMG, i would marry you just for listening this vinilo in person :)

[swaflam]

Hi Marissa, I can assure you: you wouldn't. I'm ugly as hell.

[MarissaCadiz]

lol, And I can assure you Im a groupie, a real one :)

[swaflam]

Really? And what makes you a groupie.

You know what, I was at the 2nd gig ever from Them Croocked Vultures in Amsterdam! A shame that they didn't sell any 10"es or something.

[MarissaCadiz]

Im really jealous now. I hope they come to Spain or make a new date in Amsterdam, i have a friend there in an Erasmus scholarship, and I wanna go to visit her. It would be better if i can go to a great gig :)

[swaflam]

Erasmus is in Rotterdam. Amsterdam sucks and is a city full of bloody tourists. Go to Rotterdam to meet the real Dutch people.

[hatecominupwithnames]

Wow! Impressive collection! I'm glad to have bought the vol 7&8 10" but thats the closest to any kind of rarity i've got:)

Do I see a songs for the deaf vinyl that is not the double red one? Please let me know! Because I've been looking for that and havent been able to find it!

[swaflam]

Thanks! Yes, it's the UK Edition. Good luck finding it :-)

[SINY10304WTKB]

i have never been more jealous than i am right now. fuck.

[swaflam]

Don't be jealous! Be proud of me :-)

[RushAnthem69]

I have a question how did you get a hold of all those???? I cant even find the Gamma Ray album on google... unless I am not looking hard enough.... let alone a whole collection of Desert Session vinyl.

[swaflam]

I bought most of it when it came out. You have to be quick. The Gamma Ray appears sometimes on eBay. I believe there are also reprints of it of course they are cheaper, but hey... it's not the original.

[InTheSideOfLight]

lol dude you have seen kyuss live??how was it??

and you collection.. nice ...

a question.. is the sound better when played on a pick-up?or in a CD??

[swaflam]

pick up of course :-)

[InTheSideOfLight]

okay :)

Thanks

[swaflam]

By the way. I've seen Kyuss 3 times:

- Nighttown Basement - Rotterdam

- Paard - The Hague

- Lowlands Festival (Netherlands)

And it was great (what do you expect ;-) )

[InTheSideOfLight]

that made me miserable or how is it spelled i dont know...

...

I was like 2 years old when they broke up... what could i possibly know at that age??

i hope i could see them live. i dont want to see them now , i would like to see those teenagers(almost) feeling the music and playing...ahh.... i guess ill stick to the mp3 player for ever... but its okay...

In KYUSS we trust !!!!

[swaflam]

2 years? c'mon I went to gigs all the time when I was that age.

But don't worry, there are still a lot of great bands to see now :-)

[InTheSideOfLight]

:P

i know i want to see queens of the stone age, and hermano... electric wizard would be fun too :P

[lukenessgraceandella]

This collection is so fucking cool man, well done. Good job.

[swaflam]

Thanks, by the way I have a new phone.

[tnyator]

maybe i can come over to your place and jack off to your records. That would be great. omg, seriously dude, incredible collection

[halfcabdisaster7]

ah ha ha ha, a little too much maybe? ha ha.

[stratmaniac]

really nice... did you listen to kyuss when they were still going or did you get all that afterwards?

[swaflam]

I've seen them live 3 times in The Netherlands. Some stuff I bought back then, some stuff later...

[stratmaniac]

nice... nice to see that not all just download music with no respect what so ever for the artist.

[matmacsug]

I'm sooooooo jealous. :(

[swaflam]

There's no need to be jealous. You can also be happy for me.

[gsparkz]

this songs awesome

[punk91]

Very Impressive man!!!

[swaflam]

thanks dude. those are all originals, no reissues :-)

[josholivier]

I just got my qotsa/beaver 10" in the post this morning! :D

[KCOutlaw0]

nice collection

[swaflam]

thanks

[josholivier]

What colours did the original vinyl come in? I read on the rekords rekords forum that the REAL original version was printed on clear vinyl but then fakes came out which were printed on a black coloured and yellow coloured vinyl

[swaflam]

Lots of fakes are going around (especially the first QOTSA-album, the reprint is a fake in my opinion). I believe this is the original 1st version, on clear vinyl.

[josholivier]

Ahhhh right thanks for the info

[Rugrash]

@swaflam It came in both black and clear vinyl. A friend and I both ordered when they originally were released and I got the black and he got the clear version (bastard!!!) The clear version was very limited to maybe only a few hundred total.

[cultcat0711]

I believe this may be original. Or a very good fake.

[josholivier]

I got the gamma ray clear vinyl through the post this morning, £40!!!

[cultcat0711]

Right on... I did not save that one - I have 2 MR063, 1 MR151, 2 MR082, 1 MR015 and others that are not Kyuss, Desert Sessions, or QOTSA. I am saving for my kids.  They are unopened

[josholivier]

lol unopened thats awsome man, if you're interested at all i've uploaded 1 of my tracks on my account, its really out of beat and incomplete but its not that bad I suppose, i'm just trying to get people to listen to my music as no one ever goes onto my myspace lol

[cultcat0711]

Send the link and I may listen - original music?

[ArgenBlargen]

adopt me. now please.

[branimirs]

nice collection

[swaflam]

thank you

[tatersalad4292]

wow i cant believe you have the original gamma ray ep! that shit is so rare. even though its basicall like the split ep with kyuss, its still an amazing listen. lucky ass desert rocker. are you from around there?

[swaflam]

Thank. I'm from The Netherlands.

[Irishdogster]

Not a poser, a true desert rock lover, your a lucky man.

[swaflam]

You are correct. Although I am a poser ;-)

[Irishdogster]

No way bro, I dont know how you got all of these? But its seriously impressive, I wish I had these.

[michaelwbell]

thats an awesome collection!!

[swaflam]

You are correct as well!

[swaflam]

Hi guys, most of the stuff I bought directly when it came out. Some of it later. Thanks for your great and honest replies. And yes, I'm a poser.

[cultcat0711]

now they are not for sale

[cultcat0711]

I recorded these - in 1995 - you could have got that for $3 per album - true

[Trevorsteph]

Oh my god. You are the luckiest gut in the entire world. Holy fucking shit. How much money did you spend yo get all of that stuff man?!

[cultcat0711]

I recorded them and still have them - in 1995 you could have bought one from me for $3

[cultcat0711]

Anyone know where rancho de la luna is -

clue watch 30 seconds to mars video "The Kill" - the answer is there

[cultcat0711]

You were one of the ones that were there and know the whole story

[cultcat0711]

Thanks for telling the truth - I think I understand

[beelzebozos]

[DKfansown]

[shittypiss]

[rook1911]

Holy shit. I don't know how much you paid for all those, but you have a small fortune in Josh Homme vinyl. I only have Dessert Sessions Vol II on vinyl, but I'm always on the look out.

[red157]

Incredible... I probably wouldn't want the collection due to the sheer amount of effort and cost you've probably put into collecting them all. Though I'd definetly love to just view them in real life, which you can, ya' clever dick.

[shinkibo]

buy a good camera instead of all these things.

[FernandoDANTE]

Lots of rare stuff. Nice!

[seanaaaay]

omfg u lucky shit that must b worth millions. i've only heard of those records by legend fark!

[shinty23]

[BiggNife119]

Ohhh, you lucky fucker. hahah

[Philanous]
