If anyone wants to pay a bit of a premium for the sold out Nilsson MOFI, I saw my local had 3 in the store while I was browsing their RSD leftovers today.

Ok I’ll admit it - I had no idea this album even existed until I saw this all over this forum a few months ago. Not really sure how I didn’t even know about it all these years, but I felt *extra stupid* when I got to Coconut on my first listen. What a great album!

Thanks for posting, I splurged on one. Only $69 after shipping (nice) which is much better than anywhere else I’ve seen.

I disagree, must be a cultural or age thing, I quite like the pace. I find his friend, the really energetic one quite annoying 😂

Yes that guy really messes with 2x speed when he is on.

But i am 54yo and only so much time left in the world. I ... don't... want... to... waste.... it.... waiting.... for... his... next.... word. At least he doesn't use annoying sound and visual effects like a morning radio dj.

Oh man. Listening to it for the first time on MoFi must have been a trip. I've liked this album for forever. One of my best friends' dads growing up was a big record collector and he was always introducing us to music like this. We must have listened to Coconut thousands of times on car trips hah.

I need to save some money. All these 3 month old pre-orders where they don't take the funds until they send them to you is a bit of nightmare. I'm still waiting on UHQR Miles & Lee Morgan at the Lighthouse

My wife doesn't believe me about the preorder times because every time I have something show up I say it's a preorder (I'd say 75% of them actually are...). And with things backed up with USPS, she's going to murder me because I have 7 packages all set to arrive on July 26th now.

This Pink Floyd talk made me put that KG 30th anniversary Dark Side cut on again. Man...this thing is impressive.

I put mine on recently and noticed a lot of the surface noise people complain about on Side B. Other than that, that pressing really does shine.

Didn't notice much on mine but I do believe there are 2 different pressings of it.

It was one of the first LPs I ever bought, probably back in 08/09. Had no idea it was such a highly regarded pressing until about three years ago when I really started to collect. Still sounds phenomenal despite the bit of noise I’ve encountered.

I only found out about it a year or two ago after my crush on BoomBoom started haha. And by then the prices were real high.
