$50 for a single LP. Good fucking times. And lol at the $500 CD. 

And I thought Morrissey asking $250 for an autographed LP at his shows was a joke! 🤡

Does anyone know if they’ll ever do reissues? 

They reissued Blind, Static and Silence, and Reading, Writing and Arithmetic for RSD.

Hopefully they will press them again.

Idk if you noticed but there actually is a sold out (Amazon exclusive variant) pre-order for this exact variant of the album, US Amazon anyways.  I missed it somehow, but i did manage to pre-order a black vinyl copy.  Comes out in a few weeks.  Canada Amazon still has the scarlet red available for pre-order.

 

Still no official news that i've read about Choirgirl getting a reissue.  There's some gossip going around that the tapes were lost, and furthermore gossip saying they were lost in that Universal fire in 2008.  I think that's all just fan rumors though.  There was an interview with Tori some years ago where she talked about how that album was either recorded, mixed, or mastered too loudly as it was the first of her albums that was recorded in her own private studio.

 

Knowing her personality and the way she regards her music, I find it really hard to believe that she doesn't have archived tapes from everything she's ever been a part of in her own personal storage.  Maybe it's just a major undertaking to remaster the album because of the loudness thing?

I am a member of r/vinylreleases, and while I am not a fan of Amazon, I jumped at ordering that! 😃

I looks like I predicted both this, and Judybats “Native Son” on green vinyl. 🔮

Choirgirl is out there, but now expensive. I have both the German single LP and the US double LP.  Only listened to the German pressing so far, and it is very flat like most Alsdorf pressings, but I liked it.

iMusic has been cancelling a lot of orders based off what I've read in a vinyl Facebook group. I wouldn't trust buying the sea glass variant anywhere but Urban Outfitters.

Thanks for the heads up.

I have actually had a lot of success with them, even with my UK RSD wants this year.

I just can’t pull the trigger for $40+ each. If they cancel, I will use the dough towards another record.

Cheaper for USA customers at iMusic.

Came out to about $33 each for two of them.

Bummed I missed this. Sold out on both links and can’t find any indies with it posted. 

It is back up at the Capitol Music website.

I called my local store about it, and they could not find anything about the release in their system.

$8 shipping for a $15 7-inch! 🤪

Sold out. 😕

You worked on an Oscar winner! That’s so sick! That film absolutely blew my mind. (The edible helped, but still.)

I LOVED that movie. Saw it in the theater twice.

So this brand new 4LP release in a nice jacket is being sold for a loss? https://younggodrecords.com/collections/frontpage/products/soundtracks-2018

Had no idea Soundtracks for the Blind was still available.

Would rather have that than the Van Hagar box. Thanks! 😃

Record Store Day,
 

ooooh, YEAH.

The minute I saw that mock up I thought it must be a cleopatra release.

 

They put out some of the most useless pressing around

I did grab Diamond Dave from Wal-Mart on $15 day.

Bring on 12 Bar Blues next! 

Back in stock at Going Underground Records.

This is next level trolling.

All we want are vinyl issues, and Tool is making us $2000 Funko Pops.

They've not put up a new monthly option for quite a while now. Potentially ominous?

Guess that means I am never going to see Sinéad’s Faith and Courage unless she does it herself, and I think that’s doubtful.

VPI vacuum RCM or go home.

I was wasting time and damaging records using other, cheaper ways.

Even with new records, they need a spin on one before you can really hear how they sound.

That'd be pretty cool. Getting Bloweyelashwish was a bit of a hassle for some, to say the least.

I had no IDEA Bloweyelashwish was ever pressed to vinyl. 😯

The only vinyl I knew about was the purple 7-inch.

I will put it on my wantlist, but I doubt I will be able to find one, unless it gets repressed.

Will keep an eye out for Xuvetyn though!

Ænima double PICTURE DISC!

Man that's a whole other story i need to get into haha.  I have so many tapes that need to be played, and I don't know what to get.  Obviously old Nakamichi's but the dragons are fuck-ass expensive and everyone on the Hoffman forums says Ebay is full of scammers, so i don't even know what to do haha. 

 

Find a vintage machine with good specs that has not been run to death.

Take it to a tech that knows how to restore and service tape decks.

Took me over two years to get my vintage deck rolling. But for me it was worth the wait, and the $500.

I think I prefer the Orange over the silver.

Any other versions out there?

Real Gone Records red?

Acoustic Sounds is the storefront I believe, whereas Analogue Productions is the label that produces audiophile pressings, and they're pressed at QRP/quality record pressing. Not usually one to nitpick, but that's an important distinction when it comes to this kinda thing, I reckon. 

Nope, they were expressing wishful thinking.

QRP pressed the Drastic Plastic Love and Rockets reissues and the Nurse With Wound.

Yeah, this could be wishful thinking if the label tries to cheap out, but QRP handles the pressings of other labels records, Dizzy Up the Girl, LCD American Dream, etc.

If like those last Drastic Plastic issues, if IWS gets pressed at QRP, I am going to want one.

Drastic Plastic is giving us a reissue.

/500 Swamp Green vinyl. 
 

Still just a single LP though unfortunately. BUT it’s not Plain Records, so that’s something positive. 

Thanks for telling me Drastic Plastic is pressing this.

It should be pressed at Acoustic Sounds. They make some of the best sounding records in the world.

no  we do not.

A true ARTISTÉ.

Just repress the EP already.

Do they not want to make money?
