Definitive Audiophile pressings

Hoping there’s going to be somewhat frequent restocks of BOB. I’ve had that on pre order for well over a year at Music Direct. Crazy that it went in 20 minutes at almost $100 a pop.
My hope is they put aside the orders from MD and put the left over for sale at MoFi. But it's not how it was happening last times, so probably not the case.

I had mine ordered since august 2020 and it just came back into stock if thats any indication...
 
cross posted from the jazz thread, but figured y'all would want to know this too:

AP is supposedly repressing the entire prestige AP series they did. i didn't watch it but apparently Chad says it in the CAGE MATCH between Fremer and Mikefromtheingroovephoenixarizona
Nice, there are a few Dolphys I regretted not grabbing. Hopefully the price isn't too bad.

if it's the AP series, it would proabably be whatever the AP 33s and 45s sell for nowadays. i hope they press them as 33s. I'd probably pick up a large number of the 33 mono series.

other tidbits were:

*AP is not doing any Alice Coltrane. Chad seemed very against it and I'd even go as far as to say he doesn't like her music at all. He told Mikefromtheingroovephoenixarizona that he could start his own label if he wants to press some of Alice's work.

*There's likely some UHQRs coming out of Coltrane. ALS and Ballads and maybe others.

*I'd have to listen again as Chad was a bit rambly and confusing, but seemed that the ALS from the Acoustic Sounds series was done from a non-EQed one-off master copy tape.
 
supposedly they did this last time though? i saw a bunch of people get the tapestry MoFis (At least if you ordered it awhile ago) when those restocked.
This seems to be the case:
Thanks for the email Francois. I see that Mobile Fidelity has restocked this title. Please kindly note that stock allocations from RTI to Mobile Fidelity and Music Direct are separate – even though we are sister companies our stock allocation and stock levels are different. I've discussed this with my music buyer and we expect to receive stock to be allocated to the backorders that we currently have in place. This will be in the coming weeks and i do not currently have an ETA as to exact fulfilment times.
 
In case you missed it, MD processed a couple of our back orders of Bill Withers Greatest Hits the day after they went up (and quickly went out of stock) on Mofi‘s site, and I received a very similar email from MD on that day.
Good, yeah I had a feint recollection of something like that on a recent MoFi restock.
