Vinyl Me Please Anthology

[Plumcrazyfx]

Here's my stab in the dark at the Willie Nelson Anthology picks

• Country Willie: His Own Songs
• Yesterday’s Wine
• Phases and Stages OR Red Headed Stranger (Whichever is not here is an Essentials pick in 4 months)
• Stardust
• Wanted! The Outlaws
• Across the Borderline
• Willie Nelson & Wynton Marsalis – Two Men with the Blues
• Band of Brothers

Damn. If Country Willie is in there I probably can't skip. I love that album. Wanted just got a $18 release recently but has distortion on the top of the vocals that I don't know if it's the pressing or just recorded really hot. The set needs Teatro.

There's an 8th LP that's a 12" single of Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die plus remixes.

And it's gonna include some VMP rolling papers.

I'm hoping that the impulse box being delayed means it's pressed at RTI or somewhere like that...all the mockup artwork said it was VMP013 but now Willie is that number.

That's what I'm thinking. It'll take longer to get the sets pressed, so they bumped it back one or two spots. But in the end, it should be worth the delay.

I had this CD. It’s…not his best.

i mean, it's probably not in his top 147 studio albums, but my point stands.

 

[Plumcrazyfx]

Can we get a vinyl release of Who Will Buy My Memories, The IRS Tapes?

Pretty close to accurate.

Some initial thoughts/weird things. "First edition of 1,500" so no more claiming they're true limited exclusives. They didn't get Willie for the podcast I guess. No mention of where they're pressed.

 

[David A.]

I’m jumping in. I had a bit of credit and the price point isn’t absurd.

 

[Djxfactor511]

Only 2 that I already have, Stardust and Always On My Mind. Willing to upgrade on both.

If that’s the case, I really do hope to see a repressing of the Philly box set and maybe the Dead. The Dead anthology goes for over $2000 on eBay.

Same. Don't own any of them.

It’s pressed at GZ with lacquers cut by Barry Grundman.

Barry Grundman, Bernie's evil twin.

The Dead should be a 100% guarantee because it was announced as a huge edition that wasn't fully pressed. Like we're pressing 2,500 out of a possible 10,000. This is just "we're making 1,500 but if it sells well, we'll make more".

Saving myself a lot of money by picking up Always on My Mind and Stardust NM originals for like $10 used and I already have RHS Impex. Yesterday's Wine has a Speakers Corner that is easy to get too. Stardust AP is gonna be tough to beat too if I wanted to spend big money on an upgrade.

I did get a repress of Herbie…

I’ll be so angry if they repress the Blue Note set after I shelled out $500 on eBay. I’m an idiot.

Yea--Dead should be back. They said edition of 7,500 originally and only pressed 2500. Herbie should be back too. That one also said 1st edition. VMP said they are repressing one soon but didn't specify which.
