Beginning on April 29th 1973 and lasting for another six evenings, the "A Week To Remember" concerts dreamt up by music industry icon Clive Davis were a stunning way to highlight the Murderers Row line-up of artists that were then signed to Columbia Records. With highlights like Miles Davis, the Staples Singers, Bruce Springsteen, Earth, Wind and Fire along with many others, the seven nights of shows at the Ahmanson Theater in Los Angeles was, by all accounts, a remarkable showcase of the clout the legendary label wielded.
Of particular interest is the live performance by Johnny Cash. Touching on just about every song one would wish for him to play at a concert in 1973, the stacked set list includes choice guest appearances from both his wife June Carter Cash and fellow Sun Records alumnus, Carl Perkins. Opening with the iconic "Big River" through a heavy take on Kris Kristofferson's "Sunday Morning Coming Down" a breezy jaunt through "A Boy Named Sue" to "Hey Porter" to "I Walk The Line" to "Jackson" and "Folsom Prison Blues" it's a wonder at how many downright PURE hits were just...the songs in his set.
<a href="https://adserver.adtech.advertising.com/adlink|3.0|11409.1|4852571|0|170|ADTECH;loc=300;alias=" target="_blank"><img src="https://adserver.adtech.advertising.com/adserv|3.0|11409.1|4852571|0|170|ADTECH;loc=300;alias=" border="0" width="300" height="250"></a>Third Man Records, in conjunction with Sony Music and the estate of Johnny Cash are ecstatic to release A Night to Remember. Presented here for the first time ever is the full show multi-track recording of Cash's performance from that spring night of 1973. A master class in a show if there ever was one, this production holds up with Cash's previous live albums while still exposing a side to the Man in Black not displayed on his canonical sets from San Quentin and Folsom Prison. Pressed on two discs on a new vinyl color we’re calling “vintage white", this double LP is yet another prime entry in the already-expansive Cash discography.
As if that weren't enough, Davis had the foresight to professionally FILM these concerts. While not capturing the entire set, the revelatory backstage footage is worth the price of admission alone. The high-quality, multi-camera shoot is gorgeous and immediately transports the viewer back forty-plus years and this previously unseen moment of Cash in full command of his performance and a crowd just lapping it up.
Over the past several years, Grammy Award Winning producer John Carter Cash has embarked on an ambitious project pairing both lyrics and poems written by Johnny Cash and placing them with current artists to create an entirely new collaboration. The Forever Words album of 2018 was inspiring and continuing on that path, a 7-inch including two previously unreleased Forever Words pieces accompany this package. We couldn’t be more excited to have the inimitable Ruston Kelly sharing his earth-shaking romp on “Dark and Bloody Ground.” On the flip side, a super-secret MYSTERY ARTIST to be revealed soon. Feel free to start guessing. It's a doozy. Pressed on jaw-dropping gold colored vinyl, this single is a thing of pure beauty.
We can think of no better way of not only keeping the music and memory of Johnny Cash alive than by these collaborations with artists out there today who we feel are both important and worth sharing with the Third Man world.

Ruston Kelly “Dark and Bloody Ground” & TOP SECRET MYSTERY ARTIST
I saw this when it was announced yesterday. I have to say I’m a little conflicted. There have been projects released through The Vault that I am probably less interested in, but this package has absolutely no tie to Third Man whatsoever (TMR artist, recorded at Third Man, etc.)

Probably another stupid Deep Elm stipulation. I'm guessing it was the last time they could use those plates and shelling out more money for plates for a 3LP release is expensive.
I tried looking around for the link that stated the gold pressing would be the last pressing, but Big School Records, the label that put out the gold pressing has significantly changed their website since I purchased from them. Thus, the wording indicating that it would be the last pressing is no longer there.

Are they ever going to repress Low Level Owl? Sorry if that's a redundant question. I sold both my copies a couple years ago and regret it mightily.
When the gold repress came out a couple years ago and has since sold out, it was noted there that it would be the last pressing.

How did yours turn out? I saw one that was basically a black record with a "glow" (swirls) around the center label. Looked interesting but I can see why someone would be underwhelmed. The huge fluctuation of variants is a double-edged sword – simultaneously neat but potentially disheartening after seeing how good some of these variants could look. Even that UK peacock variant is victim to it. Looks stunning in the pic a few pages back, but like a green record in the photo posted on the last page. I'm sure a lot of it has to do with angle and lighting for the photo, too, but still. Can't recall the last time I've seen such a variety in 1 press.
Mine is mostly the light blue with a few black swirls. The black swirls were kinda just on one side of the record, and there’s almost none of the green that I’ve seen in some of the others. And it’s almost completely opaque. Even held up to the light there’s not much coming through. Not complaining, it’s still a good looking record, just not what I was expecting compared to what I had seen online prior to getting my own copy.

Got two in last week. Waiting on Banquet, VMP, and JPC.
Which variant is in the first pic, the blue/green?
-
To revisit the Secretly Society membership discussion, can I sign up for a membership and get free shipping on the bundle?
-
Would love to go for this. Don’t know if I can bring myself to pay $17. Shipping is $9, more than the 7” at $8.

you know there’s a pandemic going on right now, right ? USPS shipments can take up to a week to show scan-in. This is stated right on their site.
I actually did know there was a pandemic going on. And believe it or not, I did see the disclaimer on the USPS site that Priority Mail is taking on average, a day longer than usual. As I bought these from Germany and paid €24 for shipping, then got USPS tracking, (not what I was expecting when I paid for international shipping) I simply asked a question about how others’ experience in receiving their records had been. Your experience in receiving your records? Or no?
-
Anyone who has received this already get tracking? I got a shipping confirmation about a week ago that included a tracking number indicating USPS Priority Mail shipping, but the tracking still indicates “pre-shipment info” but no receipt by the USPS.

Where do you see this? Not that I don’t believe you, just don’t know where to look. Thanks.

Smartpunk exclusives and larger variant bundles show as sold out now.

Anyone else find it odd that they are including a “solid gold” challenge coin in the formerly /10 package? What size must these be? Doing some quick math with the current bullion price of gold ($1751/oz) and the weight of a US dime (0.08 oz,) if the coin were the size and weight of a dime, the melt down value of the coin would be $140.

I think I may have slept too long on getting a creamsicle copy. I had thought it would be relatively easy to pick up online, but they seem to have dried up pretty quickly. And I’m in a record store desert, so no luck there. If anyone has any leads for online purchase, I’d be very appreciative. Thanks in advance.

The others four variants are available only on Bandcamp
Ah, got it. Thanks for the clarification. I don’t know that I can drop $50 on this, but the release looks great.
-
Looks like only one of the four variants is left unless you splurge for the package of all four variants for €99 plus shipping.

Are the same labels waiving their cut as well this time? Any other labels waiving their fees as well?
Sub Pop is the only label I’ve seen thus far to indicate they are giving up their cut. I’m sure there are others.

I haven’t seen it mentioned in this thread yet, but the new Brendan Benson album is out and is pretty good. I would encourage a listen. I feel like with most albums nowadays the singles are my least favorite on the album and are not a good representation of the album as a whole.
The pink indie exclusive is still around, I bought it from Bull Moose a couple days back.

Doing the same. Did you join for the Vault box set via TMR?
Yes. I’ve been a long time Vault member, but yes, I will be getting the De Stijl set from TMR as well. That along with the VMP record next month should make for a nice set I think.
-
I tried to swap for Black Pumas and Frances Quinlan, but neither were available. I feel like most of what’s available are the past records of the month that have been there for years. Nothing of much quality to swap for. This is why I cancelled the last time, and looks like I’m primed to cancel again after I get my White Stripes record next month.

I was already in the Cherry Tree store when the item went up. I can get all the way through, but can’t complete payment. I get a pop up screen saying “An error has occurred, please try again.”
Edit: finally got it to go through.

Jack White had covered Captain Beefheart on a number of occasions, including the “Party of Special Things to Do” EP which was released through the Sub Pop Singles Club in 2000, and later re-released through the Vault. Jack had also referenced Captain Beefheart frequently, had released an essay about Captain Beefheart and had taken a photo in front of his home while on tour with The Dead Weather a number of years ago. So, I agree with you that it did not have a link any more than Johnny Cash in this case, I don’t think it was a surprise to anyone in the Vault that Captain Beefheart got a Vault release as it seemed a passion project for Jack.
