Just saw this. View attachment 205596

I own it. It's good but honestly the new remaster is better.

Oh and also, the Black Sabbath Rhino HiFi is koo koo bananas insane bonkers. Crazy good sound, the growling guitar tone is just next level.

I would say the Black Sabbath is nice. Devo is koo koo bananas insane bonkers. Shit is next level.

Yeah that's next up

I noticed Plaidroom is selling some of these Rhino Hi-Fi records and they are labeled "Brick and Mortar" versions. $37.99.

They had Coltrane's Ole. Wonder if other titles in the series will make it to independent record shops?

Well that's pretty damn interesting.
Rhino is kind of playing some tricks creating fomo and then sliding this in

Wonder how it differs? Just not numbered I'm betting?

If they are holding out replacing people's defect copies on Sabbath because of this side series, it's going to look pretty bad.

The conspiracy part of my head wants to say it’s probably them just off loading what didn’t sell in the site.

They accidentally shipped unnumbered Dead copies several weeks back. They have been planning it all along it seems. How many titles is the question.

Maybe but then why aren’t we seeing The Cars?

 

[Nee Lewman]

I also wonder if they are stripped down. Nongatefold, standard weight but using the plates?

The Dead could just be a mix up with the comp copies for reviewers.

IDK but they need to be transparent on this.

 

[Nee Lewman]

IDK but they need to be transparent on this.

I don’t disagree. Which is why if I were a betting man, my money is they are testing to see if they can offload what didn’t sell.

We'll see how they spin it

Plaid has Tutu and Ole up. I wonder if @Plaid Room / Colemine or @Ethos99 has any insight as to what is going on there. Seem to be all the same specs, only don’t mention numbering.

You're probably right.

I mean to be honest I'm glad. These are too good for just the single run, as much as I like them being worth a tonne, it's stupid to produce so few of these if the market is there.

I can't see them tearing open a bunch of stock and reprinting the jacket to reshrink. Wouldn't make any sense vs just dropping numbered copies on retailers as is.
