PO: Blues Traveler 1st 4 Albums (Colored 750 copies or 180g Black 250 copies)


Recommended Posts

Okay, all we need now is Spin Doctors reissues, or maybe an Astro Lounge expanded edition, and the terrible 90s music repress trend will officially be beyond parody.

BLUES TRAVELLER, YOU GUYS. FUCK

one of the progenitors of the jamband genre

This alone is reason enough to throw all their master tapes into the Marianas Trench.

Bands that have been relegated to playing baseball stadiums (i.e. this band and 3EB) shouldn't be charging more than $15 per record.  In fact, their records should be given away at the front gate to all ticket holders who are willing to stay and listen to this horseshit.  Laughable at best.  Sorry for the negativity, but seriously, was this band ever that good?  Answer:  No.

 

Baseball stadium example was used because both Blues Traveler and 3EB have played after Nationals games over the past few years.  I was at both games and didn't stay to see them along with about 95% of the rest of the stadium attendance.  It didn't cost anything extra to stay.  Best.  Choice.  Ever.

Looking at their past releases, it seems that their first two albums were released on vinyl and there's still some demand for them, especially the self-titled debut.

 

I'm the last person who'd be defending jam bands, but if there's a market for these and they do a nice job with the reissues (and I must admit, the colored versions look really nice), I don't find any problem with this existing.

Knew I'd get a laugh out of this thread.

Chuckles succeeded.

Let the market speak for what it wants, meaning hopefully this will tank and we can get back to relevant albums.

Good to know you're looking out for everyone here. I'll consult you before purchasing anything to see if you feel it's relevant.

I don't see how these reissues are any different than that Real Big Fish reissue. Or any of those Silverchair reissues. Or the cake box set for that matter. Some people like certain bands more than others. Getting bent out of shape because something is betting reissued or issued for the first time is silly.
