I’ll give mine a spin again. Mine just sounded kinda lifeless and dull. I don’t have an OG to compare to though. I guess bad might not be the right word but I was unimpressed especially compared to the other half speed masters I have gotten. The Specials album sounds awesome in half speed and Amy Winehouse is on my list of to-buys but haven’t sprung for it as it’s pretty pricey in the states.

Yeah I definitely don't hear half-speed-master, audiophile sound, but it doesn't sound bad and was an under-$20 Amazon purchase :D. The whole mastering things seems more about marketing than product.

As for bargains (a la Dylan One Step), I received two box sets from the uDiscover sale (Tom Petty Vol. 1 and The Band Capitol Albums) that were a rocking deal between the 25% sale and stacked 20% coupon. Target, on the other hand, informed me there is a change to the release date for the 'A Love Supreme' reissue. No request for my approving the delay, so I'll remain hopeful.

Awesome pickups! There were some fantastic deals to be had between Target, Amazon and the Udiscover sales recently. I cleaned up this time and last time. Last time at the Amazon sale got the Chet Baker box set from Craft and the Miles Davis Prestige box for really great prices.

you should be fine with the Love Supreme reissue. It has been delayed everywhere. I think you only get asked to approve if it’s back ordered and goes past your anticipated ship date. I know others got their orders cancelled on some of the MoFis or other box sets because they just ran out of stock.

That's good to know about Love Supreme. I was hoping that might be the case! Thanks.

Getz Gilberto, Coltrane Ballads and Louis Armstrong meets Oscar Peterson.

I already have the Nina Simone releases but might upgrade of these sound amazing.

Please let us know! The same reason why you are waiting on Nina is why I didn’t order the first batch! I have early pressings of 3 the first 4 so waiting to see what the quality is like on em from other people before I get too excited about Nina!

Thanks for letting me know. Just picked this up for $14, stacking a rewards coupon. Definitely my favorite PJ Harvey album, and I worried it would not get a reissue when it did not get announced with the other ones. Ships in mid-September.

American Express is having a really cool "Shop Small" promotion right now. Register your Amex card by 7/26, and you get a $5 statement credit on purchases that are a minimum of $10 from Small businesses. You can use it 10x or until it expires on 9/20.

They have an interactive Map so you can check what businesses are included and if your local record shop is one of them. It includes my local store as well as Bullmoose, Plaid Room, Orbit Uturn, etc.
Also alot of local restaurants, coffee shops, etc but this is a Music forum.....

American Express Credit Cards, Rewards, Travel and Business Services

American Express offers world-class Charge and Credit Cards, Gift Cards, Rewards, Travel, Personal Savings, Business Services, Insurance and more.

Just want to followup that this also works at VMP, Third Man, and Udiscover Music (though I think it's a huge stretch to call UMG "small business"). Also got my first couple $5 statement credits back from purchases at Plaid Room and Orbit, only took a couple days.
 
Thin Mind by Wolf Parade down to $11.64 at amazon:

Wolf Parade - Thin Mind - Amazon.com Music

Wolf Parade - Thin Mind - Amazon.com Music

This album is an absolute jam. The positive reviews are pouring in:
"Definitely digging the new Wolf Parade," writes @wooha
@kvetcha "Liked but didn't quite love" it
"Might as well wrap up AOTY in January!!!" according to @4080
"Wolf Parade are still really good at being good," notes @LeSamourai astutely
"It's pretty darn good!" says @sjaygray

High praise indeed.
