Bay Area swamp rock deserves the best presentation available.

On the other hand, I’d like to find the guy that okayed the test pressing of Kid A Mnesia and kick him with the Katy Lied boot.
Fuck Chad. (Yes he is catching a stray, I don’t care, fuck him!)

As someone who has sought out the best available pressings of Pavement and Guided By Voices albums I am never allowed to claim that there is anything wrong with seeking out the best version fidelity for any artists. CCR, Green Day, White Stripes? Who am I to judge.

Good to know, some of the songs on there are extra crunchy.

And 2 days before shipping, Glenn would throw a fit about the colour on the cover and cancel the release.

Mofi one step Zaireeka or gtfo out. One disc is 33 1/3. One is 45 rpm on 2 slabs. 4 slabs of 10” at 72 rpm. And 6 7” at 45. And y’all think one song sides are annoying!

Well, I have several of the (complete) CCR albums that AP did way back when, at 33rpm, and they sound superb. So do the cheaper represses using the same plates, although those came with scuffs and background noise (I can't remember if they were also pressed at QRP, but they were packaged in cheapo paper sleeves and those cause so much damage).
Anyway, all this to say that the fact that these are audiophile is not really the issue - it's nice to get good cuts and pressings of even lower fidelity recordings - it's more the fact that they're a sampler compilation. Who needs that?

He’ll add all kinds of fun things like the 33 1/3 will be filled with his piss. The 45 LPs will be on a fun gel stuff. The 72s will obviously be shellac. The 45: will be picture disc lathes printed on sander discs being slowly destroyed each time you play them and of course shredding your stylus.

Love Zaireeka but the 4 CD set was fine - I never jumped on the vinyl.
