I wish I could find the Watchmen LP's. I just don't understand how and why they are so limited.

I had pre-ordered all 3 when the series premiere aired, and then they all were gone and have only seen them sporadically on sites. I thought I saw new pre-order links on Amazon a few weeks back, but now they're gone.

I'm hoping that they are pressing more, they are great soundtracks and I would love to own them but I'm not paying more than retail for them.inksb wrote: ↑Thu Jan 23, 2020 1:24 pm I wish I could find the Watchmen LP's.

I don't expect to get them anymore. I thought there would be a repress, but losing hope about that. Equally frustrating is that they're not available to buy as lossless downloads in the UK - I can only find Vol 2 to buy (7 Digital). A strange approach to these releases.I think I have all three in FLAC if you want I can upload them for you.

It sold pretty quick bc most folks are selling vol 1 for $150+

Might have to follow you down the TD rabbit hole after this. :)
In January 1980, after a year of negotiations, TD became the first western rock/pop band to play in East Berlin, the capital of the German Democratic Republic. They performed two shows at the Palast der Republik on January 31st, 1980. Both shows were broadcast on East Berlin radio. One part of this broadcast was officially released by East Germany's record label Amiga as Quichotte in 1980 (and six years later made available world-wide as Pergamon). Another part of the broadcast was picked up by bootleggers in West Berlin and released as Staatsgrenze West.
