Vinyl Me Please Anthology

Mars Hotel is also available on backorder at moFi last I checked. They do not charge until they ship but you also get no heads up on when it ships. I just got some charges out of the blue and that's how I knew they shipped haha.

Skull and Roses is expensive on MoFi but still cheaper than discogs and brand new instead of used...ebay might provide some better luck for a used one if you check regularly.

Yeah that's why I mentioned it. Mars Hotel and Blues for Allah are both backordered. Sounds like Blues for Allah is a must buy. Skull and Roses and In the Dark are available but $100 and $125 respectively.

Yea--they jacked up the prices on Skull and Roses and in The Dark it seems which sucks...I was eyeing Skull and Roses. You also don't have to go for the best of the best if you're just getting into it. I really like the One From The Vault set as well.

3 LPs, cut by Kevin Gray. Quality is really nice. It's back-ordered (I think LITA does charge on order though if I remember correctly...)

Ok so where do I go from here? I have one more album to spin in the anthology. Music Direct doesn't charge until they ship right? So do I throw in an order for Blues for Allah? What about the other MoFi's available? Skull and Roses, In the Dark, and From the Mars Hotel?

Blues For Allah and Mars Hotel are both great albums IMO.
 
I think I'll put the order in for the 2 out of print ones. I'm guessing it'll be at least a month before they ship. Then maybe I'll buy S&R in the next couple weeks. I'm going out of town for Thanksgiving so buying it before I'm back is silly anyways.

I'd probably go that route to start, but I probably listen to S&R more than I listen to either of those albums though.

I gotta give Skull & Roses another listen it seems! haha. In my limited experience so far, I'm good with just owning a handful of live albums from them. I've never been the type to have favorite live versions of certain songs from any bands.
