RSD 2020

A lot has been changing. Fat Beats mentioned that RSD is slow to adjust things on their end, when I was asking them about the Dirty Three drop, yesterday. I'd say you have a good chance. I'd check the pressing numbers on this one and see if they line up. Dirty Three was initially 400, but got ramped up to 1k

It looks like the RSD site says 1000 UK and 2500 Worldwide.

Did anybody here get the Planet Wax: Sci-Fi/Fantasy Soundtracks On Vinyl book? I'm intreigued but was curious as what somebody that has one thinks about it? My local still has some online and I was thinking about grabbing one. Wanted to check first since I am not able to see it in person since stores are not open to public yet.

I ordered this as well but don’t have it in hand yet. I did pick up Blood on Black Wax — the horror equivalent — on RSD last year and can recommend the concept and entertainment factor. A couple of caveats — don’t approach it as an encyclopedic reference. There will be gaps in releases covered and credits. And the writing is inconsistent, which I can appreciate. It would take a helluva effort to write fresh, amazing copy about every single release covered. But I enjoyed it enough to pick up Planet Wax this year.

Appreciate the insight! 🍻
I might wait a little bit and see if I can score it a little cheaper when/if the RSD leftovers get marked down some.

That's what I did and ended up getting the signed edition for a little under $30 and it seemed like Blood On Black Wax was a bit more in-demand but that edition was also a bit bigger.

I almost grabbed Planet Wax from Dark Delicacies a few weeks back since they had 5 of the film composers in the book (including Christopher Young also signing the 7") but it sold out quick. I'm holding out to hopefully grab it for $30ish but we'll see.

Also, not sure if you knew but they'll have a non-signed and no 7" version for sale pretty much everywhere at the end of this month as well.

Yeah I did notice there was a book only version being released soon. I googled the book looking for more detail and photos and came across an amazon preorder for the book which was $34 I think. The RSD version would be the preferred one if I can find it marked down to $25-30.

New West really hit it out of the park with the Grandpaw would reissue. I just got it because I like ben lees early stuff. But this came on cool looking splatter with great 20 page 12" bookleetand his home demos and covers are actually cool

I have the original Grand Royal pressing, so I didn't pay much mind to this one, even though I was happy to see it get an RSD reissue. I didn't realize what it entailed
