Yeah. Joni needs to slow down a bit. FWIW I can put 2600 in my cart but not 2610 at the moment. Down from 4k.

Yikes! Keep us posted haha! It feels like a pretty unique situation where the LP box is only being sold on Joni's site, so I can't get away with my usual reason for procrastinating of waiting to see if it shows up somewhere else for less :( That's a lot of coin.

I've gotten a couple records on recycled vinyl and really didn't notice a dramatic difference between them and other standard pressings, but it's a contentious topic and I imagine more robust set-ups than my fairly basic one might pull the differences.

Granted, I also think that a lot of records are probably pressed on recycled vinyl and not noted so who knows.

I think the last bit is true.

My Gorillaz recycled variant sounded just fine. So I wouldn't worry. Also this is perhaps a more sustainable way of proceeding going forward.

People were nervous about the recycled vinyl but that was because of the classic oil crisis vinyl where they just no care threw in with the label so paper got in the vinyl and it was much noisier for it
 
What’s the deal with the Lorde album? It’s sold out on her store and everywhere else I look. There’s really no listings in the US either. Do we just have to wait until listings start to pop up in the US or something? I do want a copy but missed out in her store so was hoping to get an indie or just the standard black.

Unless you enjoy randomly checking the official store in case there are any restocks, your best bet would be just keeping an eye out for your preferred indie store to list it at this point.

It is, and I can't seen an accideal happening here...so I'll need to decide kind of soon. I sent the link to my wife who is also a huge Joni fan and instead of "oooh, we need this!" it was "that's pretty expensive."

I just found the first Archives CD box on PopMarket for $35. As much as I’d love to have Vol 2 on wax (and it’s a gorgeous set), spending $250 for a set I won’t spin much doesn’t make a whole lot of sense when I could potentially get the same set of music later on CD for under $40.

That is the problem. Super nice to have. A look at a seminal artist in one of her creative peaks. Replay value is questionable. I will generally play one her favorite lps when I am in the mood for Joni. Then maybe a live concert. The outtakes/extras will have to be pretty good if they r going to get spun much. At least that is what I keep trying to tell myself.

Edit: that box sure looks nice though. :-)

Oof, the US indie version of Solar Power is brown. It's starting to get listed at places like Bullmoose and Rough Trade (for $47 lmao) so feel free to pre-order from wherever is most convenient/cheapest.

Her last album had a deluxe edition on dark blue colored wax and was available on Amazon for like 2 years after its release sometimes dipping down to around $20. Obviously that was about 5 years ago and things have changed over that time but my guess is after all the frenzy fever buying dies down they’re will be plenty of opportunity to on the LP at a reasonable rice.
