    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    Man, if my liners come damaged like that, after they specifically said they were mailing them separately to avoid damage, I'm gonna be f*cking pissed. That is the most ridiculous thing I've seen yet. I don't understand what the hell is happening with this company. Why would they not do this right?

    The Colemine Records rabbit hole

    Can't get over how awesome that Michael Nau is! The drums on the A are like a warm fuzzy blanket. B-Side is ACE!!! Grabbed up the GFO as well. Damn, @Plaid Room / Colemine got me soppin' up that gravy. 😋

    70's / Seventies

    Been mad obsessed with the show called, "The Midnight Special." Was a bit too young to really watch it back in the day. Solid Gold in the 80's was about when I really started getting my music ear. Great thing about TMS was the performances were live, as opposed to SG's standard lip synch...

    Music you only got into because of vinyl

    It wasn't until I saw/heard DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist's "Brainfreeze" set that I got mad into collecting rare Soul & Funk 45's. Changed my life, and seriously depleted my back account.

    The N&G Listening Club V1 - Archive only

    Not sure I would have discovered Hiatus Kaiyote if not for this Anderson Paak jam that sampled them. After a bit of research to find the sample, I hit up YouTube and this was the first video that popped up... After many "Whews!!!" and "Got-Damns!!!," I immediately went out and got the...

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    The Was AMA was definitely worth the watch for me. Think his staff picked the most interesting questions to give him and I learned quite a few interesting bits during it. I want to guess he answered maybe 5-7 questions during the whole half hour with nice detailed answers and stories.

    Vinyl Me Please Classics

    Same here, Classics since day 1. I do think this is the perfect time for me to step away from VMP once and for all. Not sure if I'll ever go back. Will have to see. I have much better music discovery in the $1 bins these days.

    The Colemine Records rabbit hole

    Dude is incredible. I truly think it's the best album Colemine has ever released. Totally dig it in every way!

    My box was damaged. Just got an email saying they’re sending a replacement, but it won’t be numbered. Bummed about that. I told them what number I had. Just bust out the sharpie again.

    😂 Jay Leno sure thought so in 1992. 🤦‍♂️

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    Indeed. My social spots are called Paul Weller News. Started a little over 10yrs ago as news here in the USA (I’m in Virginia) was so hard to get.

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    This first effort should have been ok with a loss. You make sure it’s perfect, authentic and everyone is happy, then the next thing(s) will be a breeze. I got lots of experience with social media outrage as I run various very large fan accounts for UK music artist, Paul Weller. In that...

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    So far, no foil stamp, stereo labels on a mono record, CD art work used, deleting the essential historical liner notes... and we’re not supposed to collectively discuss in the community, that we paid to be a part of, all this lack of attention to detail? Like I said, VMP trying my patience...

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    Just read this over at the fb group. They could have just said they were working on the jacket update without all the rules sass. Part of our $230 included membership to the group, so they shouldn’t be deleting anyone. I’ve been a champion of VMP for over two years now. This whole Anthology...

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    And there’s also a lot of, “It was a team decision to go this way.” Still doesn’t make it right, or the best decision.” In terms of the Dexter jacket, something like, “In our goal to retain historical accuracy, we used the best high quality scan of the original album cover and art. There are...

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    That's what's so baffling about it. I'm not even one of those Blue Note experts. I am, however, an attention to detail vinyl nerd. But, if I'm sitting in a meeting at VMP and someone says we're doing a reissue of a record on vinyl from one of the most prestigious labels in the world and, by the...

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    So true. Blue Note peeps are mad obsessive. The "remastered in 2003" info on the back should have been a pretty obvious tip-off. Or, a quick click over to Discogs to proof the art work. Such a disappointment.

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    I just don't know, from an historical context, how you could not include the original liners/art from the back. Crazy! It's the whole point of the set, right?
