Only the first three albums have received the remastering treatment from this series.  The others AJFA - DM have not received the special treatment, the current blackend pressings are the Warner pressings from 2008 that, IMO, are very underwhelming.  If you're looking for these albums you're better off looking for older pressings. 

I really like Pounded by the Surf, a side project of the Bronx/Mariachi el Bronx guys. You can still pick up the LP here http://thebronxxx.shop.musictoday.com/dept/lps?cp=47984_50003_83718
 
 
 

Seeing them tonight...  can't wait!!!

Sounds like crooked vultures. 

My Pearl Jam order just got cancelled... 
 
Fuck it, will just buy the Singles OST and be done with it. 

To be fair it's not quite as bad as your signature.

I have Friday at 3 PM in the "Reza Brain Aneurysm" pool.
Throw in your money! It's fun. Winner gets a OKNOTOK blue vinyl that came from a site that cancelled Reza's preorder.
 

RIP Reza - "He went to hell and back"

I feel like this sums it up - there's a bunch of people dancing and someone just having a complete meltdown. 

RIP Reza - "He went to hell and back"
 

 
 

Got a reply back from Bengans!

So.  I finally got bored enough that I created a screen printed jacket to house my fucked up version of this LP.  I had some fun with it by doing some split fountains, so each one was a little different.
 
I made a few extras for folks on the board.  Send me a message and pay for shipping and it's yours.  However, please note that preference will be given to those who have ordered anything from me in the past versus giving these away to n00bz.  Sorry!
 

 

They are really good!
And if you live outside of Europe they take off VAT of prices.

Thanks @thischarmingham! Picked up Coral Fang. Unfortunately Pearl Jam was sold out, hopefully Amoeba will have some online.  
 

If I see any these of  I will pick them up

Bronx III would be nice.

This topic is giving me such a woody.
 
I collected fiercely in the 1990s, in retrospect the best time possible since everybody was dumping LPs. I'd spend $100 or $200 at Jerry's in Pittsburgh or the various stores in Chicago, DC, the East Village, Vancouver, London, San Francisco ... and I'd come away with more LPs than I could carry. Sometimes I had to find a UPS drop-off before I got back on a plane. (There were no UPS Stores back then.)
 
The first of two kids arrived in 1999 and they took most of my time, so I've barely bought any vinyl in the last 15 years. But for her 17th birthday last year the older one got an RP-1 she can take to college ("university" for those outside the US), along with 50 or 60 duplicates from my stash. Seriously, nobody should leave home without Blood on the Tracks and Astral Weeks (green label, natch) at the very least. I've bought a few things here and there when I find nice stuff for less than $25 or even less than $20 per disk. (Seriously? $25 for a single LP? WTH?!)
 
I'm lucky enough to work from home, and we have a semi-finished attic, so the first shot is the view from my desk, and once or twice a day I climb into the chair to listen to one side as a break.
 
Rock and pop is on the left; jazz, blues, and a small batch of classical live on the right. We old guys have a lot of the gems, like the original Art Pepper on the rack to the left above the 'table. Warms my heart that so many youngsters are keeping vinyl alive.

By the way, the plural of vinyl is "vinyl." You no more pick up "vinyl" (with an s) than you pick up "fishes" at the market for dinner. Stop me gnashing my teeth. Please.
 
Be good, kids. Enjoy what you've got. These are good times for music, if for little else.
 
If anybody cares: VPI Aries I with Lyra Helikon cartridge, Rowland Capri preamp, Rowland 102 amp (for summer), Mac Mini file server with Schiit Modi Multibit DAC and two hard drives (one a mirror of the other, backed up every day at 4AM), Quicksilver Audio Silver Sixty mono amps with stock EL-34s (for the cool months), Scansonic 2.5 speakers, Sunfire sub, DIY DH Labs cabling throughout. CDs in the background are all ripped to the server now, along with about 2000 live shows by various groups, especially the Grateful Dead. Anybody want the little silver disks?

My new turntable arrived today, could not be happier with how it sounds and the cart isn't even close to broken in.  BIG shout out to Soundstage Direct for being so rad and easy to work with.  Setting this up took 10 minutes.

ahhh welcome to our world for pretty much every time we have to preorder from the states

For that special person who has equal love for obsolete bands AND obsolete gaming systems:

Did someone use the word elitist?  My ears were ringing.
 
Frutiger75 is surprised people buy records from a variety of artists instead of just 2-3.
Frutiger75 rationalizes people do this because they can't budget their vinyl funds.
Frutiger75 is very fond of Thesaurus.com and uses it to try hard.
 
Don't be a Frutiger75.

Done, thanks!
