Fresh Grabs

have you spun this yet mate? Ive just ordered my copy and heard a few bad things on the pressing?

Noooooo I've been waiting for this. Heard the remaster on Spotify, definitely sounds less 90's pop metal. It was the first manics album I ever heard and definitely a sentimental favorite.

No Iā€™m unlikely to spin it until next week. Waiting to get enough records to make a spin clean session worthwhile. Once Iā€™ve it cleaned and spun Iā€™ll report back!

Was thinking of grabbing the cd version too. I've heard good things about the book!

This came today but I was curious if anybody else ordered it? I received mine from Bullmoose but it looks nothing like advertised or like photos. in the discogs entry that shows a transparent dark blue vinyl. The copy I received was opaque light blue/white marble. I'm curious what copies look like that other's received.

Lucky you ..my signed copy was in this mix up theyā€™ve had ..so theyā€™ve now sent me an unsigned copy with a separate signed sleeve to follow....the 2 cd mastering is awful ...the original cd blows it out the water ... I did notice that theyā€™ve now put a proper gap in between despair and la tristessa ....under rated album imo ..and some really good b sides
 
Iā€™ve gone a bit FNAC crazy on coloured vinyl exclusives..all arrived safe and sound and very nicely done


Queen - greatest hits 2- blue vinyl
Bon Jovi - crossroads - red vinyl
Deep Purple - burn- orange vinyl
Velvet Underground - 1st - Yellow Vinyl
Cream- Disraeli Gears- green vinyl
Pattie Smith - Easter - orangey browny Marble Vinyl
Rolling Stones- between the buttons - turquoise vinyl
Derek and the donimos - Layla - Yellow Vinyl
Stooges - raw power - orange vinyl

Lot cheaper than the hmv exclusives last year ...I was surprised hmv uk not doing anything so far this year

And my signed Manic Street Preachers sleeve turned up too....

Im halfway through Ted Gioia's 'History Of Jazz'. Its beefy at around 450 pages but written incredibly well and really fascinating! Im planning on getting the 'How To Listen To Jazz' book at some point.
 
Went in to my local to pick up Dylan today not realising the vinyl edition isnā€™t out until next month šŸ¤¦šŸ»

I made sure it wasnā€™t a wasted trip though with these two great grabs!
