Pre-Order Thread

Gotta say the only good stones half speed master is the exile one from a few years ago that comes with the fauxbi and certificate thingy. That’s really good, if a bit too hot. The OG Goats Head Soup that I got for not much money earlier in the year blows all the new ones I have out of the water.

I would agree on the Exile half speed pressing, it sounds really nice. And while the Goat Head deluxe is tempting, I think I'll also follow your lead and work on picking up an OG somewhere along the line, it's the last of the Stones LPs I'm looking for.

It’s doable, mine was only £16 and it sounds great bar a couple of light pops, but that has to he expected on an album from the early 70s! It’s a really good master and press. After my splurge last month I only need to get Blue & Lonesome and I would like to pick up the two hot rocks too at some point!

Was hoping they would add Goats Head to Qobuz when they put all those 24bit digital albums up, but no luck. I think OG pressings of it aren't too expensive. I grabbed a 1973 pressing for pretty cheap not too long ago.

How fast did the yellow version of Gleam 3 sell out? Guessing immediately? Has anyone tried a vmp link trick for one?

I ordered the yellow from Bandcamp as it was $5 cheaper than it was on the Avett's site. is VMP doing a variant of Gleam 3?

I haven't seen anything about a VMP pressing but they might have fixed the photo link trick...

ok, I guess I'm confused by @bdm105's posts as they seem to suggest that it might be happening... unless it's more checking if VMP is doing it as wishful thinking for missing the yellow variant?

they just asked if VMP was doing one. there has been nothing about it as far as I have seen. people said the B&N variant was out of stock but if you searched for it on their site it was still available.

I wasn't even fully aware that the pre-order was dropping today, I luckily stumbled into this thread today, as I don't check it daily, and saw @Twentytwo's post about the different pre-orders

I missed the bandcamp one. B&N is still available but I might hold off...been buying too many records lately!

Was checking to see

It was around for a couple of hours. At least on bandcamp. Had a hard time checking out with B&N but finally got through.

That's what I get for sleeping in on the west coast...

I haven't had luck with getting flat records from them. I'm going to wait to see if VMP or another place has a variant and if not just go with bandcamp

I have a rip of the Japanese SACD as my digital copy that I got using totally legitimate methods...
