djones0930 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I started a new thread 30 minutes ago titled "Josh Small 'Tall' Green/Grey info" because I thought I had received those two colors -- well apparently my mind was lost because I got home to take pictures and Side A/B is red; Side C/D is dark green! I just received this album yesterday, and my buddy has the same one but his LPs are "Frosty Green" which was supposed to be this! Was there a 3rd pressing??

djones0930 Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 pretty! Haha thanks I held up the green lp for inspection and realized how much more kickass it is! Sorry for the reflection of my hands and the fact that it's out of focus but I had to take it w/o the flash so the sweet marks were visible in the photo!

phil007 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 This look like a first press copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones0930 Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 This look like a first press copy. That would be sweet but I know the first press copy has different cover artwork and the LPs were burgundy and gold. The artwork on my album is also different than the 2nd pressing because it has green and brown (2nd pressing has green and black). The more I look into it the more fun this is haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil007 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Do you have pics of the cover? I`m curious to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowEndAutomatic Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I picked this same version up from Robotic Empire a few weeks ago for only $14.99... I assumed it was a first press copy. They still have a few copies left too! http://www.roboticempire.com/store/index....nb8s qktsvv4v95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones0930 Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Do you have pics of the cover? I`m curious to see it. I checked out my friend's album who has the 2nd pressing frosty green and his does not have the "SH 047-1" (picture below) and hopefully you can see that the letters and colors are brown rather than black like the 2nd pressing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan999 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 your "green" disc looks like gold in both of those pictures. plus the description of the first pressing gold/burgundy seems pretty similar to your copy, AND the cover colors.

djones0930 Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Shit, I think you are right-- it could possibly be the first pressing! I just talked to my friend who I thought has the 1st pressing, but his is on pink-ish wax, so a total different pressing. I'm back to being clueless haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones0930 Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 OKAY I FOUND IT -- IT IS THE FIRST PRESSING!! I JUST GOOGLED JOSH SMALL SH 047-1 AND CAME ACROSS VC'S LINK: http://www.vinylcollective.com/discography/ Hell yes! Thanks to phil and jordan for quickly pointing it out! And thanks to VC for "accidentally" sending me the 1st press rather than the 2nd press on frosty green! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admin Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 sorry about all the confusion, the gold on the first pressing looks kind of green depending on which one you get. The burgundy does have some pink, too. There have only been 2 pressings so far 1st pressing - on gold/burgundy (200) 2nd pressing - on frosty green (500) When we first pressed "Tall", we did so only because we really wanted it on vinyl but we didn't think we could sell very many. To our surprise we sold through of the first pressing and have been doing well with the 2nd. I have been listening to rough mixes of Josh's new album and holy shit, it is the greatest 70's folk record ever. People are gonna be blown away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pumped for the PO that probably won't happen for a while haha As for me receiving the 1st press, was it an accident? Either way, I'm grateful as hell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
