I was so surprised seeing Jim Henson stuff in the first few episodes. Also there's 0 chance that pulled cartoon criticizing media monopolies is on this right?

Edit: that cartoon wasn't until the 90's so not on it for sure.

The miser in me cant do this.
It hurts more than it does to get really honest with myself and pass on a release I want.

With the PIFthread, I feel like I'm getting full value when I decide a release/pressing has to go because its claim one/PIF one. (Again - shout to the PIF thread - everyone should get over to the PIF thread if you aren't there already).

Yeah, my reasoning is that I’m helping a small local business. Though that’s really a way to rationalize my own anxieties.

As for the PIF thread, I’ve also been too afraid to join. Maybe if I start regularly perusing it and see something that I just can’t miss, that might cause me to get over my fears/laziness.

Oh, I hope you'll make your way over - it's an extra special corner of the internet!

I definitely found it a bit daunting at first, but am glad to be there - even when not giving or getting anything.

@bettim84 - Fear is the mind killer - get yourself over there!

There's nothing to be afraid of - its basically a record swap meet with collectors you can trust.

Right now - there's a Hat (not going to explain that - you have to get over there to figure it out) for a pristine copy of VMP's Doors S/T release.
If you claimed that - the owner ships it to you media mail at their expense.

Your only obligation would be to find a release of your own to offer up to anyone on the thread in return.
If someone claims your offer - you send it via media mail them.

BOOM - you just swapped a record you didn't want for one you do.
And - you aren't out any $$ on the transaction b/c you didn't pay for having the The Doors shipped to you/
And - you didn't take a bath on the record you offered.

Its kind of a no-brainer.

I must not fear.
Fear is the PIF-killer.
Fear is the little-warp that brings total obliteration.
I will play through my fear.
I will permit the needle to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner groove to see its distortion.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only rockin' tunes will remain.

Dang I love this album and am glad it’s getting another press. Wasn’t this part of a numero club and they said it would never be pressed again or did I make that up? Either way I’ve had that version in my wantlist and it’s always hovered in the 100+ range.

…and yet here we are. After a decade plus of purchasing “RSD Exclusives” I’ve learned to take even the best labels/artists with a grain of salt when they make declarative statements like this. I usually operate under the assumption that it’s better for more people to have the opportunity to purchase music than less but I could understand feeling a bit bamboozled by this when the label is using it to stoke FOMO.

Totally agree. To be clear I’m happy it got repressed because ive wanted it for a long time and honestly didn’t think it would because of that club.

Originally released in early 2021 on the Cream Dream label by producers Bird Peterson & Boom Baptist, Komfort Food is packed with tantalising J Dilla beats and stuffed with creamy jazz samples, featuring a sweet instrumental trip-hop glaze and topped with a professional hand-piped production, all prepared by master hip-hop craftsmen Boom Baptist, Elaquent and Juicy The Emissary.

The vinyl edition features a die cut jacket with cellophane window motif, mimicking an actual box of donuts — this is one box of treats you will not be able to resist!

Yeah, I signed up for it and got all the records (12 for a flat fee of $250, shipping included). While I was taking a chance, both on the quality of each record and possibly not being able to get any of them on the secondary market, I sorta had a feeling that at least a few would end up getting re-pressed down the line. It also makes sense with the obscene money the initial re-presses are going for now.

At the same time, I was a little surprised the re-presses have been done by Numero and also going in on colored vinyl. 94 East's The Cookhouse 5 was on gold vinyl last year & Pastor T.L. Barrett on silver vinyl a couple years back.

Boom Baptist has some solid, fun projects. I still spin this one quite a bit... BOOMSHAKALAKA! 🏀



Still waiting on that Joe Bob repress from Shiptoshore and if Komfort Food is still in stock when it happens i'll probably grab that as well! I'm a massive Dilla fan so i've been streaming the digital version the last year and really liking it.
