Did you notice in the video if he was blinking in semaphore? Trying to tell people he is being held in @MikeH 's basement?

I really hope he calls it Boom Boom Records

If you look close enough, you can see a reflection of me holding the Marvin Gaye What's Going On master tape with a pair of scissors in hand in case he gives anything away.

Is Blue going to just start being restocked like Electric Warrior did a while ago?

It might be! Very strange...but I highly recommend the KG cut of Blue (of course I do...) but it sounds great.
Great idea, I still have a few key Prince titles missing. He also did the RSD Prince release from a few years back, which I bought at the time, and can't believe it still sells at a cheapo price, I didn't think anyone knows it's KG.

I have to say though that the BG sign of the times 12 LP box set is phenomenal, one of my favourite purchases in recent years.

Even the guys interviewing KG didn't know that KG cut those Prince releases haha. They were not marketed as KG cuts and don't have any hype stickers. I have self-titled that he cut but need to pick up more before they go OOP or I can't find any decently priced ones. A 12 LP box is a bit too much for me to handle but I might grab the KG cut of it.Great idea, I still have a few key Prince titles missing.

I’d be shocked with the BG pressing coming out in the first 4 album box soon. I’d say it’s more likely they will end up being released individually after a while and become the main pressing.

I wanted this, but the local only got two. And not sure I wanted to pay $75. Looks great!

Yeah, I'm sure my local was around that too. They're so much cheaper. Got the Frankie and Witch Fingers for $13.99 there and saw it for $27 at other places.
this has been selling for £85 in the UK. Rough Trade was charging £90. Outrageous pricing for RSD this year.

It’s fascinating how prices vary that hard for the same releases/event/store type. That one was $85 USD at my closest place. Sadly I kinda think RSD squeezes smaller indie stores as larger indie stores get the eyes and can price up to the crowds.
I don't know what's going on in the UK tbh, there is no reasoning to the pricing. Not that I could get a copy but I had Quiet Kenny in a basket for £35 works out at about $48, nearly twice what it was selling for in the US.
With the Craft small batch, it worked out cheaper to buy from the US store & ship to England than buy direct from the UK store.

For you Boom Boom fetishists, the Harold Land set Westward Bound! is still available at Port of Sound. (and I’m not suggesting I am not a fetishist bc I picked up this and Quiet Kenny yesterday, both online)

It's fine...we all know you're talking about me. I'm not ashamed!
I ended up buying that Chicago The Blues Trilogy last night. I was hemming and hawing and ended up caving. Not sure if it's a RSD exclusive or first, but the AAA + KG got me. I think it was around $70 shipped for me online.
