Can't go wrong with a VG+ or better George Piros pressing from the early 70s. Those are usually cheap and good. The Sam Feldman cut from the late 70s/early 80s is supposed to be awesome too I think, and kinda rare but I swear I saw them for affordable prices on discogs recently.

High praise for the new UHQR Kind Of Blue.

The Best Ever Kind of Blue?

Is it possible to now write anything that hasn’t already been written or said about this record? I haven’t any fresh insights to offer that might advance what you probably already know. A good Kind of Blue pressing puts you in the 30th Street studio to hear the performance. Ashley Kahn’s “Kind...

I just received an email from Deep Discount about shipment of a Speakers Corner title I guess I ordered some time ago that was out of stock at the time (though I think that wasn't perfectly clear when I placed the order back at the beginning of March). In stock currently, for under $38 with the discount (code SPRING15) if anyone is interested. I've read a lot of good things about this pressing. According to discogs it's mastered by Kevin Gray and pressed at Pallas.

that album sounds great, it's an absolutely fantastic pressing on a par with the Lou Reed Speakers Corner.

Just wanted to second that the Bowie reissues sound good overall. I have all of the box sets to date, and apart from the problems with Heroes, I've been very happy with them. Not sure that they're all AAA – I know Ziggy is for sure, but I know there are some digital glitches on a couple of the others.

It sounds like the current Ziggy has changed from the box, though. For a while I know it was the same, which I believe was the same as the AAA 2012 40th reissue, but on discogs it sounds like they started using different plates on an otherwise identical pressing if the comments are correct.

I read somewhere (cannot remember where) that there was a batch of the Ziggy coloured vinyl that used the Ken Scott dvd mix from the box set. Not sure if it is true or not

Yeah, the Harry Nilsson MOFI is absolute . Because, guess who got a copy and is listening to it right now?

Anyway, gotta go... I'm about to flip it to Jump Into The Fire.

 

[Joe Mac]

Damn this Harry Nilsson mofi better make its way to DD and then onto me. I’m getting jealous here!

OMG that rumbling bassline in Jump Into The Fire

The piano and horns in 'Gotta Get Up' are pretty amazing as well!

I think someone here was looking for a Blue box of the Beatles. I think it’s a solid price? ($500) Beatles - Collection 13LP Box Set Near Mint UK Import USED

Interesting video from Chad talking through some of the records they press. Says there is a reprise of the VMP dead anthology in the pipeline.

So the deluxe AAA repress of Loveless?

Absolutely deserves to be on this thread, one of the best sounding records I own

Bloody Kevin Shields and his totally cocked-up pre-sale.

Bloody Kevin Shields and his totally cocked-up pre-sale.

If you didn’t get one check the U.K. & Ireland stores again. My local and quite a few others I’m on mailing lists for found out they were getting more than they’d originally anticipated a week or so ago.

 

[jamieanderson1968]

I have a non-deluxe version on order with Bleep, but I keep missing the AAA version when stores get a few extra in.
