I need that albini mix of In Utero too, one of these days I need to find one.

You should still be able to find a back-to-black reissue (red sticker in bottom right hand corner) on ebay or amazon for $20. I have had a bunch of good luck with the seller soundbeaches.

This pressing is available @ Music Direct - marked down to 18.99 I believe.

(It is also referred to as Universal - as in Universal Records - Reissue Series) :: http://www.musicdirect.com/product/79859

I just saw that Elusive Disc is now carrying the ORG reissues - so much for MD's claim that they are the sole retailer. Fuckers. Calling them tomorrow to call 'em on this BS.

for those that have it, how is the sound for the simply vinyl "nevermind" press?

I think it sounds like shit.

It is really bright - lacks the mid-range and low-end that makes Wallace's engineering so amazing. Not to mention it is one noisy slab o' wax… I've cleaned my copy two times (with a machine) and still…

a minor warning for anybody who ordered these ORG reissues. i've seen the finished versions of In Utero and Unplugged and they are NOT on colored vinyl. they are 180g and pressed at RTI but they are black vinyl. i'm sure that's not a big deal but online stores are still advertising the records as colored vinyl and they're not.

did you get a chance to listen to them? I'm on the fence about in utero and unplugged. It's tough to spend that kind of money on a single LP unless the packaging is nuts

i won't be able to listen to them until i get home on monday night. luckily i didn't have to throw down $30 for them. i actually got them for a little more than 1/2 the retail price. i wouldn't have got them otherwise.

alright, i stand corrected, the reissues will be available on BOTH colored and black vinyl.

i wonder if it's 4000 total, how many are colored. either way, i'm cool with the black vinyl. especially since i didn't pay full price for them.

fyi in case anyone is interested..i got this from elusivedisc today:

I am so very sorry for the confusion. ORG just announced that in addition to pressing the Nirvana / Nevermind on limited edition colored vinyl, they are also offering this title on regular Black Vinyl.

The Black Vinyl version is due out this coming Tuesday, November 3. The ORG 180g Nirvana colored vinyl albums are not shipping next week. ORG still does not have a solid release date for those titles. We will update the release date on our webstore as soon as we have more information. I have included links below to each up-coming Nirvana title on vinyl:
