andynz Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Live in Kawasaki is finally being pressed. The purple looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andynz Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Looks like they have it in hand now... hopefully we'll get it before long. It would be great if they include James' autograph as well, but we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwokeinrelief Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Silver copies of Live at the Viper Room are starting to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andynz Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 If anyone is having buyers remorse on Live at the Viper Room (either colour), let me know. I know it'll come out on standard black eventually, but figured I'd ask in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) Next release will be "The Rubano Tapes Vol. 1". Recorded between 1988-1991 - two open air mics were used. It will feature "18 songs of never before heard versions of future SP classics and as was often the case in the band's early years, songs performed but once." Preorders will be open on April 4th at https://madamezuzus.com/ https://www.instagram.com/tv/CbvaDLmp2GY/?utm_medium=copy_link Edited March 30, 2022 by highfives CeCeCe and fish 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 Also, it looks like they set up a section where BC is selling some of his record collection. https://madamezuzus.com/collections/wpc-vinyl-vault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeCeCe Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Hoping (in vain i'm sure) for a more affordable version of this release. If it has the early pre-gish stuff on it that what I've been waiting for a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I'll have to suck it up and buy this one for sure as i never thought we'd get anything this early from them. A normal cheaper black pressing would be great but who knows how long that will take or if it'll ever happen. Sounds like this is "volume 1" so there may be a series of these coming.

Justinadamk Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Pretty upsetting to see that I paid $15 for shipping (on a $70 record) for it only to be shipped Media Mail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just realized I ordered that back in May and can't find any shipment e-mails. Got mine yesterday, listened tonight but at somewhat of a low volume. Overall the sound is nice. It’s a great live mix that has the bass a little heavy and the drums punchy and up in the mix. The vocal performance, which is always questionable for Billy in those days, is a pretty solid and consistent one. The vinyl is heavy, has a nice blue/red/purple marbling. One of my discs has tapered edges and one is flat. The flat edge one feels a bit heavier as well, which is a bit weird. The sleeve is a good quality, nice printed photo on the cover, back design leaves a bit to be desired. Otherwise, it feels a bit sparse for such a high priced release. There’s no insert, no upgraded inner sleeves, or really anything to warrant the price tag. $50? Maybe. But $80? No. Will I buy the next one? Probably. I’m a sucker.

ZeroNowhere Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Guess I’ll be following up on this too. Between this and the Candiria records I ordered and never got last yeah I’m starting to wonder how much stuff I order and never get. Back to making a spreadsheet.

Yeah, I have one but I've been a little lax the past 6 months. Life gets crazy and it's easy to let stuff like that slip but with how much I order I gotta get back to it. I e-mailed Zuzu's, I'm sure it'll work out. I just really don't want to miss getting this because while over priced, I think these are cool. Edit: They already got back to me. They're working through orders and it should go out soon. If anyone else hasn't received theirs it sounds like they'll be going out in the next week or so.

achillesstand7 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Were these limited to one per order last time? I'm going to be out of town and without cell service until the 6th. Would anyone be willing to pick up a second copy for me? I'd pay for your trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I don’t think any of these have been limited to 1 per. Japan was open to all during a window. LA was limited but I don’t remember them capping order qtys Edited March 31, 2022 by timsimmons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just realized I ordered that back in May and can't find any shipment e-mails. they're shipping them out as they receive them in smaller shipments from the plant. they might be assembling them by hand too (not sure). autographed ones seem to be going out first. i got my autographed viper room a few months ago (the day after they started shipping since i'm only a few miles away) but haven't received the silver copy i ordered yet. i haven't received my copy of japan yet either and don't think i ordered it autographed.

andynz Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 I'm hoping the black copies of the Viper Room show go into the production queue soon, but with the new announcement, I'm not hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
