Definitive Audiophile pressings

Getting my first GGR pressing on order with Coltrane Plays the Blues and was poking around their site.
Interesting take on colored vinyl, which I am not a fan of based on my poor experiences.

Color Vinyl

Record pressing in color vinyl by Gotta Groove Records.

Good news, everyone! After many many Recordcity orders, I placed my first Ella records order from Japan.
More good news, it's for 1980 VIM pressings of The Royal Scam and Aja. Also, I read on SHF that Aja is pressed on Quiex vinyl!

Hmmm, that is not the level of snark I expected in response to my post. I should mention that I will be listening to these records through my red mahogany Dentons, while wearing a spangled leather poncho.

I will pray for your clearly damaged soul. But on the other hand I will toast your removal of not one but TWO Steely Dan records from Ella's website. Just two more albums I will heretofore NOT have to scroll past whilst making the sign of the cross and angrily spitting on the floor, a gesture which to be perfectly honest, my wife has grown rather tired of.
So thank you.
And may God have mercy on your soul.

Now that's the kind of uplifting positivity I've come to expect here! And if your prayers aren't answered, I understand what comes next for my soul.
 
RCJP airlift landed today. Came in hot but Clark, my FedEx man, kept the records in his air conditioned cab.

Echo & the Bunnymen - Ocean Rain (Japanese OG) EX/EX
T Rex - Slider (Japanese early 80s reissue, heard good things about the pressing) EX/VG but cover is definitely VG+ or better
Dream Syndicate - Medicine Show (Japanese OG promo) EX/VG but not a mark on the cover.

Both TRex and Dream Syndicate were only $10USD because of the covers so definitely worth the chance.

The Echo is freaking amazing. Almost bringing tears to my ears listening Ocean Rain. This has been on my want list for a long time and it definitely shits all over the recent Rhino reissue. You can actually hear the bass.

This sounds rad where do I sign up?

Also, do you provide the spangled leather poncho or do we have to bring our own…

…and if we have to bring our own poncho, will my tasseled brushed suede poncho also be acceptable?

Sweet! As accurate as they seem to be with their condition gradings of their vinyl, they're very conservative with their grading of jackets. Such a great source of high-SQ vinyl! Only challenge is keeping stuff in the cart long enough (over days/weeks) to reach a point where the shipping becomes easy to justify.
