Interscope Vinyl Collective

Sounds like this one might be a new cut.

NO DOUBT - "ROCK STEADY" IVC EDITION
After every show during their Return to Saturn tour, No Doubt would play Jamaican dancehall CDs and throw afterparties filled with dancing and zero bad vibes. For their 2001 fifth album, they channeled this ebullient, dancefloor-aiming energy, traveling to London, Jamaica and California to record one of the best-selling albums of their career.

Bolstered by mega-hits “Hella Good,” “Hey Baby” and “Underneath it All,” Rock Steady found the group having fun with reggae, funk and New Wave grooves. “We’re not taking ourselves so seriously,” frontwoman Gwen Stefani told Rolling Stone upon the album’s release. “It’s like, get over it.”

To achieve this newfound confidence, the band enlisted a murderers’ row of producers, including trip-hop guru Nellee Hooper, reggae legends Sly and Robbie, techno vet William Orbit, New Wave pioneer Ric Ocasek and Prince, who co-wrote and co-produced “Waiting Room.” The result is a looser album that finds the band confident, jubilant and having fun. This deluxe edition 2LP is cut at 45 RPM and features 4 bonus tracks on vinyl for the first time, a gatefold jacket, exclusive alternate cover art in blue and pink on silver foil, blue and pink vinyl, and an original LP cover lithograph insert. It is individually numbered and limited to 3,000 units.

The Kevin Reeves special

I just saw that he cut it on DIscogs and was less than thrilled - the fiasco with the Jellyfish being the only things I have that I know he cut.

I don't always trust the comments on Discogs, as I know most aren't playing on anything special....and probably on Crosley equivalent, but so far I see decent reviews.

Mine should be arriving today, so I'll see how it is.

I only have this on CD, so no other vinyl comparisons from me.

The Nina Simone live release he did is not bad. Some of the Verve By Request stuff he’s done has been pretty awful
