dawhizz Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Apologies if this has been asked and/or answered, but does anyone know if the R.E.M. Unplugged box on vinyl is an RSD-only item or if it will be available in vinyl in non-RSD later on? I know it's being released later on CD, but from the press releases and articles I've seen, I can't tell if another vinyl version will be available later. It's pretty much the only thing I'm super interested in so I'm trying to gauge whether I can skip RSD altogether . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yancey47 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 "I believe" that it's a one time vinyl pressing. tape 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I suspect it will be re-released later. This version is on clear, so a standard black later this year is possible. Plus it seems like such a small run for a brand new release for such a huge band. I mean it's getting a CD/Digital release in May. It's possible it could be standard vinyl too but Rhino could be withholding that info so as not to cut into RSD sales. It would be a shame of they only make 2500 copies of it.

OrangeJoe Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 An interesting read about one of my favourite stores in Toronto problems with RSD and why they aren't participating: http://www.ilikegoodmusic.com/record-store-day-2014 That was a good read. I've always disliked stores like sunrise that just monopolize on every little thing they can. And it is said to see such an awesome thing like rsd being ruined like that.

toomanyrecords Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Just called a bunch of stores in my area. People are getting so screwed. So many records that they only got 1-5 of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard some new horror stories/practices going on this year regarding allocations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanyrecords Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Really? Which records? I've heard some new horror stories/practices going on this year regarding allocations. I've called asking about Gambino, Glitch Mob, Paranorman, Outkast, Cake Numbers range from 0-5, closer skewed to 0 for each store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyfranciosa Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I talked to the owner of my local place today and he seemed to get everything I'm hoping to grab aside for the DIno Jr box, but he's hoping to get that tomorrow afternoon.

These are limited releases after all.In previous years, my record store got higher quantities of some of the more limited titles, even though the pressing numbers are very similar to the ones I want this year.

Chenko Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Almost all the titles we got in are listed on our website (Not for sale, just to show what we will have at our shop in Lancaster, PA). Just got in a few new one that I'll add tomorrow, but most of it is up now: http://bit.ly/1eE0qGM All unsold items will be available online on Sunday. We're not holding records for anybody, so it's a true first come, first serve deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

negavinyl Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 So am I correct in understanding that LCD Soundsystem "The Long Goodbye" is RSD first and there will be another pressing available on May 20? Just making sure that doesn't mean this is the only vinyl pressing and then it's out on cd/digital or something like that. If so I think I can skip the RSD price gouge on that one and get the regular version for less later. Sorry if it's been discussed before, this thread is long and wily.

Chancrescolex Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Where is your shop and why are they selling everything early? Really small town in the Midwest. There are only 5 of us in the area who care about music, and we don't sell anything online, so we usually just open the boxes as the show up.
