jcllnsn Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Do you guys think that Caldo Verde will have some special colours of Universal Themes or will it just be on black? What's the chat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freewheelin Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Do we hold out much hope of a ghosts repress? It's the one that has always aluded me, apart from the one I bought 8 or do years ago that never turned up. Would love to get my grubby mitts on it one day.

itsgoodtobefree Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 I talked to Vinyl Films awhile ago and they said they would love to do a Ghosts deluxe edition one day. Also they said they plan on repressing all of Cameron Crowe's soundtracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatGreenOne77 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Do you guys think that Caldo Verde will have some special colours of Universal Themes or will it just be on black? What's the chat? I mentioned this a few days ago... I was thinking this morning, I bet it's gonna show up on Caldo soon in like 3-5 different color variations just to make everything that much more difficult...

thesewoodenideas Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Hopefully after seeing the amount of buzz/sales generated by the RHP reissues, Mark/Vinyl Films/Caldo see the huge potential in reissuing everything. It's crazy how even Among The Leaves and Benji go for big bucks when they're so recent. Maybe now that Rough Trade are helping Caldo they could share the effort/cost of represses.

timsimmons Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I think Caldo/Mark knows there is a demand. But he likes being a dick too much and making nerds like us get worked up on lack of reissues. GreatGreenOne77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesewoodenideas Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Haha I think you might be right Tim. Maybe we should take Mark's advice from Live at Biko where Mark says if you're a girl he will talk to you about vinyl records for an hour whereas if it was a guy he'd kick their ass. We need one of the lady VC'ers to confront him with a list of questions about reissues, variants and why Caldo is so poor at announcements/organisation.

timsimmons Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Got my copy of Blue Guitar from Amoeba this morning. Did a comparison to my Plain pressing. I think I marginally preferred the Island pressing. The Plain pressing, while decent, always sounded a tad muddy to my ears. The Island version is cleaner and crisper and a touch louder. The one downside to the Island pressing is a bit of sibilance. Its minor, but its there. I think if you have the Plain version and are on the fence on buying another copy of Blue Guitar, there isn't a rush to go get this one because the jump in quality isn't massive. Especially in the sleeves. Tommy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 A bit more nerdery: Its MASTERED BY CAPITOL and pressed at URP. The cut is nice because it leaves lots of deadwax to cut down on IGD. My copy was quiet and flat. Tommy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youspinmeround Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Every time this gets bumped I think it's going to be a for a U.S. preorder of Universal Themes. I ordered an EU version off discogs from Germany(they have the cheapest EU shipping costs). Charged me 6 bucks shipping. I beleive the total came to 34 dollars us. Looks like the seller raised some of the prices after "first batch" sold out over weekend but still can be had cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in the sleeves. When I first put on the Island press the first thing I noticed was the sibilance. When I compared it to the Plain pressing, the Plain pressing still had sibilance, but it was a little less pronounced. It's safe to say it's due to the slight dullness in the Plain pressing since it's also present on Spotify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
