PO: RED HOUSE PAINTERS BOXSET
GreatGreenOne77 replied to Endserenading's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I emailed Matador a few weeks back and they told me they would be shipping out the week before release, so should be next week sometime. -
PO: RED HOUSE PAINTERS BOXSET

Anyone know if those flippers on eBay were depending on orders from CD Universe to fulfill their orders? lol -
If you say your black copy sounds fine I will just pick one of those up somewhere. I prefer to use the black vinyl as my playing copy as often as possible, but I got my blue Benji through a trade, and since it was already opened I just listened to it. Thanks for the feedback guys! If anyone happens across an extra copy of Rock n' Roll singer, I would gladly accept help finding one!

It certainly is on both sides of the first record, I may have not been paying as close of attention with the second record. Pray for Newtown is the song that shows it the worst because it's so easy to hear the notes on his guitar go up & down within the same note almost like he's doing string bends the entire time...

Does anyone else notice significant groove travel when listening to any of the colored variations of Benji? I've noticed my turntable arm traveling back & forth when playing my blue copy. It gets worse as it gets closer to the center, and on songs like Pray for Newtown it makes his guitar sound out of tune (pitch goes up, pitch goes down). It's not my turntable, because every other record plays just fine.

With every release he sells direct from Caldo, there is always a color variant that is "exclusive to Caldo Verde" or the cd is "limited edition" whatever that means anymore. Or we get lucky enough that he sells us the left overs of some special run of like 50 "Tour Only" color variants that didn't sells on the road lol

Possibly so. I emailed 4AD about when I could expect my set to be sent out, and they said the week before street date so maybe that has something to do with their date of availability. -

I think it's the same reason he rarely plays any RHP songs live anymore. The older he gets, the less he wants to be known for something he did 20+ years ago. He wants people to be into what he is doing now, not back then. Even if I really can't stand most of his newer output, I can't blame the guy for wanting to still be a "current" artist and not a jukebox playing greatest hits albums constantly just to pay his bills... -
Why the fuck did I sell that?
GreatGreenOne77 replied to Tom Delonge's UFO's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I needed money for car repairs, which turned into me needing money for a down payment for a new vehicle. So I sold two copies of Red House Painter's "Old Ramon". I also let go of my "Rollercoaster" & "Ocean Beach. The biggest kicker was selling my still sealed & autographed "Ghost of the Great Highway" Sun Kil Moon. I could kick my own ass for it to this day... -

New picture posted on Vinyl Film's Facebook showing the labels for the boxset. As promised, only 500 copies available... this should be very interesting -
"Vinyl Films" Release Thread
GreatGreenOne77 replied to wbhendrix's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Got in touch with my one and only local record store. Thankfully even though I have seen many post about people not having heard of them, my guy deals with Think Indie and says he will check to see if it's available for pre-order. Hopefully this means I will be able to get one in my hands.
