i THINK these are kevin gray cuts unless he messed up the titles of stuff he was working on... he has said in various interviews that he was cutting some AAA stuff for jackpot and the meters.Boom boom?
That's not horrible compared to this album which is $68 before Shipping and is about $75 with the cheapest shipping option that's available.

Discover We Buy Diabetic Test Strips by Armand Hammer. Vinyl records with live instrumentation and guest appearances. Label: Fat Possum.www.roughtrade.com
$60 dollars for a 2XLP. Vinyl prices are so stupid.
Definitely gonna keep my eyes on the prices of these as potential buys when they inevitably go on sale at Newbury.
If you buy all three you get $5 off each album.
or when newbury jacks the prices up to $99 each. 50/50 shot at either happening.Definitely gonna keep my eyes on the prices of these as potential buys when they inevitably go on sale at Newbury.
i think these will be pretty widely available and hopefully stick around for awhile! seems like they are gonna do wider release black vinylDangit!
Moments like this make me hate being unemployed...
Yeah, they rolled this out like a normal record - meaning, some limited variants, a bundle, a standard black - but they haven't changed the price points. Backwoodz did usually charge quite a bit for records, so the price won't be a big surprise to those who have purchased directly from Backwoodz before. The Haram 2LP a couple years back was $55 I believe for black vinyl. There are a lot of rap records that are more money, but also Backwoodz has been pretty elusive about quantity, and they rarely repress, so that creates more intense demand (perhaps influencing the higher price). I'm not saying this justifies the price, but they charged high prices, and the demand was there. But with this Fat Possum release I was hoping the elimination of the mystique factor of the "single unknown quantity pressing" would result in a lower price on the vinyl, but not the case. At minimum, it would be cool if the standard black vinyl wasn't $50

Just buy the CD and avoid the frustration.I haven't tried yet, but that variant looks cool and Target is easy with returns, so I'ma risk it.

Cake - Comfort Eagle is up!
LOVE the album. Don't love the price!
Brass was $30USD. Sorry if that makes it hurt more! At the time I did hesitate for a minute because it wasn't on streaming so buying it was the only way to hear it. It was the beginning of the price increases because Shrines was $25, then Brass $30, then Haram $40 and on up from there.Yeah, this is barely a bump in price for Backwoodz at all. I'm pretty sure Brass (billy woods & Moor Mother's collaborative album) was $50 for a single LP upon release, which I absolutely regret balking on at the time because they're going for $100+ now!
