Kliph saying a few years ago that the plans are to re-issue everything with bonus stuff

They need to do this. I need them to do this. Do this.

Welcome to the world of Daupe. Every auction they have on Bandcamp is abou 2k units and over within 5 minutes. Takes at least  a month to get your merch and it works out to be about $50 shipped to US for one record. That’s where all the flippers are heading some sell better than others, but usually if you can grab a couple records during there auction they double in price by the next day

Bandcamp has auctions?

U2 is pressing Zooropa and Joshua Tree on Blue and Gold wax (respectively). On sale tomorrow. 

 

No no idea how limited. 

Damn. I have the 30th anniversary Joshua Tree and it sounds flawless to me, but when was the last time Zooropa was reissued? I'm in.

Yep  they are the Door inserts that Ikea sell as add ons for the Kallax series. They are a bit of a pain to install but once they are in they look great. 

 

Speakers are Bose 301s - I got them at a rediculous price and prefered them to the Wharfedales that i was running. I also have it all connected through the roof and into the outdoor entertainment area to Bose Outdoors as well.....they pump

Ah! I should've guessed Bose with that horizontal form factor. Out of curiosity, which Wharfedales were you using before?

Is it confirmed that this is only the one track?

Guys, don't knock don't knock the hustle. Okay?

Found our loungeroom was getting really cluttered so ive done a swap with some new Kallax shelves in lieu of the old Expedits......Using the white shelves and dropping the heigh has just made the room feel heaps more open

Before

 

After

I like the cabinets along the bottom row a lot. Is that an Ikea thing? Also, What speakers do you have?

The Dr. Octagon has also been delayed and will not be available on Black Friday, we have learned.

 

I must've missed this one. What was it going to be?

That con variant of H2 looks a whole lot like my DWRC Sub variant of their original H2 release. Cool rekkids though.

Anybody wanna pick em all up for me?

I'll buy ya breakfast.

No?

Okay, fair enough.

But it'd be a pretty good breakfast...

The Byrds - Sweetheart At The Rodeo 
Type O Negative - Bloody Kisses

Paul Williams - Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas

Maybe:

Eric Dolphy - Musical Prophet

Duke Ellington  - Mary Poppins

Dexter Gordon - Live At The Playboy Jazz Festival

Herbie Hancock - Flood

Sadly Not:

Gravediggaz - 6 feet Deep (Gutted that this is a just a picture disc).

Gracias, @Karpatenhunde77! I picked up Ambient 1. One of my favorite records and likely the only one I'll buy in the 45RPM format. Here's hoping it's pressed as beautifully as the music it contains.

It would be awesome if this was actually mastered/pressed well. Killer record.

Did anyone ever actually receive an Angelfire order?

Also, how illegitimate could these pressings be if there is another, white pressing being sold at Boomkat and Amoeba?

My money's on Black Friday RSD.

Thats great!! I would be interested in Hounds of love seperately, but haven't found it yet on its own...really hope they will be sold individuallyas well.

Several years back I picked up Sounds and all it's associated 12s via an eBay auction. It was a screaming deal. A few of those 12s contain some of her best work in my opinion. It's great to see her catalog, and then some, get this kind of treatment. Fingers crossed the  pressing plant treats the work right.

If it were an independent retailer I would agree, however musicvaultz.ca is the Canadian storefront for Universal Music Group, they also have the complete album artwork with the Abbey Road OBI, which they have partnered with to bring into Canada on some of the original Abbey Road remasters, so all signs point to legitimate release, which has me very excited!

Well then color me excited as well. Thanks for the info!

I don't understand the 2LP 4RPM treatment for Discreet Music in particular. Why would anyone want a nearly 30 min-long track cut in half?

It's not ideal either way, but I'll be getting the 33.3 of this one to avoid the track break. Even if it comes at the expense of a half hour side of wax.
