My first vinyl purchase - opinions?

I just recently found a place near my college that sells vinyl, albeit not too many trance ones, and found myself browsing the rack. Since I'd never been to a place that sold vinyl before, I suddenly had the impulse to start a collection, since I would not be able to use others' records indefinitely. Opionions on the four I bought?

Hi-Gate - Pitchin' (In Every Direction)
Cygnus X - The Orange Theme
Cygnus X - Superstrings
Subterfuge - Prana (disk 2) (Yeah, it's a bit housey)

Cool, especially Moonman's Orange Juice remix

Cygnus X - Superstrings

Doesn't even come close to The orange theme.. Played a lot here on radio a year ago, but is pretty crappy imho..

bah dont listen to them just do what tiesto did get rich and buy every vinyl released.. Ha but i agree unless you either feel a track is so incredible you cant pass it up or that it will be a frequent essential to your sets save up cuz often times better will come along and youll be stuck with you shit heh

The Cygnus X records is good, but the other two......I don`t like them.

How much did you pay for the two Cygnus X ??

Agreed. Only buy quality, not quantity.

Sure... I was only giving my opinion... If he's smart enough he won't let it influence his decisions on whether or not to buy some record

I like the Moonman remix of The Orange Theme ALOTand also the Rank 1 Remix of Superstring is fine!

Did you buy the Cygnus x - superstring with the rank 1 deep dub on it?

$2.99 for The Orange theme, $1.99 for Superstrings. I was surprised the prices weren't typos.

Good point. I was asking a) because I'm curious, and b) because I've never bought vinyl before and wanted some feedback about purchasing records.
