MacDonals Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Hmm, you get 140g vinyl until you step up to the $250 tier for 180g. Lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Not sure who vinlymnky is but they've got it cheap(er). Looks like the 9LP is already sold out there. https://www.vinylmnky.com/products/tom-petty-wildflowers?variant=32533521596495 Edit: looks like they're a subscription service.

Fowty Dollaz Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 3LP showed up today. Hasn't hit the table yet, but everything looks and feels nice enough. Maybe not "$40 good," but naturally it has the "popular artist markup." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree. 3 LPs, great packaging, it sounds killer, and it’s Wildflowers. 180 gram or not, this is an awesome reissue and $40 is more than reasonable. I can’t believe anyone is complaining about this even a little bit.

Complaining about the price point on this triple LP is absurd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corgipants Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Stumbled upon the 3LP while running some errands yesterday, instant buy. Can't wait to listen to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fowty Dollaz Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 After listening to the high quality of Wildflowers (and only Wildflowers, none of the "Rest), I retract my previous statement. This is a $29.99 set, tops. eight1echo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a $29.99 set, tops. You're getting a double LP, cut all-analog, of an album that routinely went for $200+ for decades. (And that original press was cut from 44.1 kHz files.) You're also getting an extra LP of unreleased songs, also cut all-analog. And you're paying slightly more than the cut-from-digital 2LP release that's now standard for every single major artist. (Even the ones who could EASILY afford to go AAA.) But yeah, you do you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Yeah, $40 for an audiophile 3 LP pressing is pretty reasonable IMO. But if you aren't feeling the album, then I could see how its a ripoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, @filthyrich, your argument is very close to exactly my argument on the origin of my name. My first post was kind of taking the piss. tl;dr - this release is great.

timsimmons Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) I believe it was some Hoffman forums nerds. But yeah, because basically no one was buying records in 1994, they just used the redbook master to cut it.
