Vinyl Me Please Anthology

Yep, for sure. It was just annoying to catch since its at sporadic parts and I didnt want to send a 20 minute video.
Honestly when they look at my order history of 291 total orders with very few replacements, they should probably give the benefit of the doubt…but as long as I get one no big. The album is otherwise beautiful

Yeah completely!

To give them credit I think VMP's replacement policy is really good and it's honestly one of the main reasons I have stuck with them for so long. Not that I have had to use it too much over the years, but it certainly removes any worries.

Agreed! With the exception of last year where their CS Ive never had issues, but I know they’ve run out of replacements on these Anthologies before so hoping Im not too late here
 
What was Storf's hat during the Herbie AMA? "I'd rather be listening to Ch....?" I couldn't read the script.

Oh yeah, I received my Herbie Anthology Friday and am 3 records in and they sound awesome. Takin' Off was one of the dirtiest records I've ever seen (thanks GZ), and I had to take a knife and fix the centre hole, but it played great after a cleaning. Fingers crossed on the rest continuing to be flat with no surface noise.

So:

10. Folk-centered
11. Philadelphia International Records
12. Jazz anniversary

Are there any other jazz labels other than Impulse celebrating an anniversary this year?

In the AMA he made it sound like a bigger name label, so Impulse! makes the most sense. I know Acoustic Sounds has a bunch of Impulse! records coming in their series, but there are lots still out there.

A cross section of the label that hasn't had recent reissues would be great, something like:

Kai Winding and J.J. Johnson - The Great Kai & J.J. (Because it's Impulse #1)
Benny Carter & His Orchestra - Further Definitions
John Coltrane - Africa/Brass
Charles Mingus - Mingus Plays Piano
Alice Coltrane - Ptah, El Doud
Albert Ayler - In Greenwich Village
Chico Hamilton - The Dealer
Sons of Kemet - Your Queen is a Reptile (I know we all have it, but they would likely put in a current contemporary artist, and this could use a new vinyl remaster and a nice clean pressing would be great.)

There's lots of other great artists/albums from Impuse! that would be awesome too...Pharoah Sanders, Freddie Hubbard, Yusef Lateef, Max Roach, Diana Krall, et al.

You're hired!
 
which kind of folk are we talking... i have a weird hunch that 10 might be a Smithsonian folkways one or something

I'd very much love to see these ones in the mix too if this manifests:

Sam Rivers - Crystals
Albert Ayler - Music Is The Healing Force Of The Universe
Mel Brown - Chicken Fat
 
Holy shit king diamond is the brightest one yet.. the guitars feel like they're shouting at me.. and it sucks because this is a great album

Small warp but no problem

Black dahlia murder has a very notable warp.. I'm pretty sure this is a bad one because it barely touched the player.. it also sounds easily the best of the LPs here.. quiet and has a punchy bass


This episode is interesting because the 2 albums are so different, one is a campy horror story with tons of thrash and screaming at the top of your lungs. The other is a no fucks given, no concept, blunt metal album from of dirty names and heavy growls.. probably my favourite episode as I loved both episodes and it's an interesting concept
 
I have 4 Herbie Hancock replacements inbound right now lol. 50% of the box needed replacements, GG GZ
 
It's funny because I have plenty of non VMP GZ pressings that are flawless, it's just the VMP ones that are so problematic.

Yeah, the same for me although at least three out of four replacements were good. As for the fourth... well, I'm hoping to have that issue resolved in the next day or so...
