Yea I'm just gonna wait to make sure I get a shipping notice from one and then cancel at the other...if I end up with two I'll just sell one.

That’s my thought as well

Still checking for the Layla MoFi, that's the one I want.

Though the From The Mars Hotel MoFi is highly recommended, it sounds awesome.

Will tag ya if it comes up. Toad Hall seemed to think they would be on trucks so maybe MD will get it back in stock today too. Seems to be gone from MoFi now though completely although you can backorder again.

...also put in an order for that one when it comes back in stock. I really like "Lovely Day" and wanted to have that on wax.

Pick up José James - lean on me. Blue note put it out a few years ago, its all Bill Withers tunes and it's fantastic.

Me too. My studio Grateful Dead collection is almost sufficient. I still need to grab one of the Rhino Anthem Of The Sun reissues and I will be content.

My local had an OG copy of Old and In The Way’s self-title LP but it was too beat up for the $29 they were wanting for it.

Looks like they have 394 left.

Also interesting to see that they still have 115 copies of Oh Mercy that they jacked the prices up on...

And 64 copies of Withers Live left.

Have you bought those Talk Talk records yet ?

The Classic Records plates that were done by Bernie Grundman and later bought out by AS when they picked up the remains of Classic.

The circular economy.

Yea--I mean if it's the best sounding version they have since the 3 track tape isn't being used anymore, I'm for it. The Classics press is around $100 now anyway.

Mailman dropped these off all at the same time an hour ago.... this may be my favorite single day haul. In Rainbows is pristine - I think I totally scored on that one.

How does that Discbox sound? Mine is in USPS purgatory.

I had the Classic stereo 33, it was good at the time (there really weren't any other choices) but the Mofi is, IMO, much better. My go-to would either be the digital 24/192 or the KG mono vinyl.
