Definitive Audiophile pressings

[MikeH]

Does yours have the Optimal plate marking as well as the RTI, like mine? When did you order it? Can't remember who else noticed that and let me know.

I'll try to check tonight! I bought it in the last few months but can't remember where.

When they add it to the "back in stock" page, it's usually only a day or two before they actually start to sell them.

Sorrrrry!

Yeah, hopefully one of my locals can get a copy. $35 UPS shipping plus duty and brokerage fees is a no can do kemosabé...

 

[JonnyH]

it surprised even me to be honest. But i guess when you consider he worked on a bunch of VMP stuff, the BN Tone Poets, BN80s, some APs...my man is everywhere. You might be surprised how many you own too! There were a few that I had no idea he did, like Shabazz Palaces - Black Up and Jens Lekman - Night Falls Over Kortedala.

I just checked, I have 70. Surprisingly he's done a lot of saddle creek stuff from the mid aughts.

If not, I think I saw a 33RPM MoFi from a canadian seller on discogs the other day as one of the lower priced options.

Natalie Merchant mofi is back in stock too, if you're like and been waiting on that one.

I have between 80 and 90, the discogs search function is imperfect on the desktop collection

Yep! I think 7 different vinyl titles in total are restocked.

And this is one of the best sounding records in my collection. If you're on the fence at all it's fantastic and well worth the price.

I agree. I'm not the biggest fan of the music and I kinda bought it out of FOMO awhile back but it does sound awesome quality-wise.

Indeed, separation between Carlos Santana's fluid fills, spicy solos, and broiling grooves and pianist Gregg Rolie's soulful Hammond organ runs allows the music to come alive with a newfound freshness and radiance. Songs simmer, with each passage bursting forth with vibrant color. Just like the...

They did add more during the last restock so I assume they will again on this.

@wmeugene has Before the Flood and seems to like it. I don't have Porgy and Bess but I can't imagine it sounds bad. All the Miles I have sound great.

Apparently the 33 is actually not very good. By most reviews I've seen

Didn't realize this was an SACD lol, almost fomo'd myself right into it.

It's not a SACD. It was the 2x45 RPM. All the restocks I posted were LPs

I've saved some money. I was going to get Santana, Miles & The Pretenders. Both Santana and Miles already sold out.
