Vinyl Me Please Anthology

Anyone think there’s any chance of the Headhunters in this Boxset being better than the 33 1/3RPM Analogue Productions pressing? What’s your call @Selaws ?

It’s a discount off the anthology but looks like you need to be a member - so unlikely code will work unless VMP fucked that up.

Ok code will probably work...

reading the email with the code in it, i don't think you have to be a member, just a past anthology purchaser OR a current member. so, i would be curious if someone can use a code that isn't either of those things. i guess we'll find out.

I’ve got a job Dukey!

And guess what!??!? Baby Monster isn’t buying the Boxset!

I just can’t get passed 1+1 and Takin’ Off being chosen in this Boxset + no Mwandishi era albums, and the fact that Headhunters is the ONLY fusion album in there - an album which the pressing I have will sound better than the pressing that will be in this Boxset!

If they chose something like Sextant, Thrust and Mwandishi instead of Head Hunters, I’d actually buy it. But I’ve already got an AP pressing of Headhunters which sounds sublime! And the BlueNote80 pressing of Takin’ Off also sounds great!

I just wanted more fusion! When I think of Herbie Hancock, I think of fusion! When I think of Herbie Hancock and his music, I primarily think of Crossings, Secrets, Man-Child, Thrust, Sunlight, Sextant, Headhunters, Mwandishi! Those are the 8 albums I think of straight away with Herbie Hancock! And only 1 of those albums are in this Boxset and that album I have an audiophile pressing of.

So it’s a ❌ from me unfortunately. A bit heartbroken because I was looking really, really looking forward to this Boxset!

With the discount code, it ends up being only AUD$480 shipped! That’s a pretty great deal actually! I think I’m gonna get this! And I, like @wynn72 will sell my current Takin’ Off vinyl!

I do! I’m usually not this indecisive at all! Like I said, price and the selections were both going to be taken into consideration, and it’s just too expensive for me, for what’s being offered for my music taste buds!

Also, if they were pressed at RTI or QRP, I would I’ve purchased it! Im sure the pressings will sound great, but I wanted that extra reassurance that these were going to be pressed at a quality plant, not a medium/average plant.
