Anybody not feeling the Betty Davis pick should definitely consider either the Ben Webster or Merry Clayton albums as swaps. Both are fantastic. -

Okay - just wrapped up my first listen all the way through. Swap confirmed. There is nothing any more interesting on the full album than what was heard from the singles that have been released. Also, I can buy this album for $18 right now on Bullmoose instead of the $27 I'm paying as a part of my subscription. A color variant and exclusive lyrics sheet don't really bridge that gap when I'm not excited about the music. -

For anyone looking to swap, I recommend checking out Ben Webster Soulville if you have even a passing interest in Jazz. That was going to be a future swap for me but I ended up pulling the trigger on a cheap Discogs copy when it looked like stock was getting low on VMP website. -

Am I the only one who thinks the video accompanying the announcement email kind of misses the mark? It's cool that they got Morby to be a part of it but it's more an advertisement for the VMP service and doesn't really tell us anything about the music. They could have at least highlighted a song that wasn't already released as a single. -

Although it has since switched back to Fiona, the ROTM page confirmed Morby as this months pick for a quick moment. Must have been testing the page. I'll give it a shot if I can track down a way to listen to the whole album but this will likely be a swap month for me. -

You can swap for any previous ROTM that is still in stock and select store exclusives. They include an updated list of SWAPS with each ROTM announcement so you will be able to see what you can swap for tomorrow. You can get an idea what will be available by looking at the ROTM archives in the store. -
P.O. NOW: Slowdive S/T (05/05/17)

Loving this album but not thrilled with the way the silver sounds on my setup. Maybe I got a dud? I have some distortion on the first two tracks of side A. Rechecked my cart alignment and tracking force and made a few tweaks. Things did improved but I'm still experiencing less that optimum sound quality. How's the black pressing sound? However, it was a good exercise to recheck my alignment and tracking force settings. Things were a bit off and the tweaks I've made have definitely improved the overall sounds of my setup. So if anything, there's that. -

As much as I've tried I just can't get into Morby. This will be a swap month for me. -

Awesome! In the mean time, I'll continue to keep my eyes peeled to see if anymore copies pop up. -

Care to work out a deal if both copies come through? -

Well damn - just missed this. Gives me hope that more will pop up, though. -

Mellow Dream shows in stock. It's fulfilled by Amazon so a forwarding service isn't required. Now here's to hoping that Scenery comes back in stock somewhere. https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/aw/d/B0725CLP4D/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?__mk_ja_JP=カタカナ&qid=1495377072&sr=1-1&pi=CB192184409_AA75_QL70&keywords=福居良
