Vinyl Me Please Anthology

So uh any idea if and when the Coltrane box is shipping? I've waited basically 14 months now. What's funny is in my orders list it says "in stock" lol

Doubtful, but no one knows for sure. Stock dates on preorders were set on autopilot and ain’t no one there to (or possibly even knows how) fix them.

I would expect that everything on their Production Calendar showing as "delayed" will never see the light of day.

However, alone among the 'delayed' titles is the Coltrane box, which has been mastered, lacquers cut, plated and may even have been printed. It has not been pressed yet.

So, if that is right, one of two things will happen.

First - if VMP can get enough capital, they will get it pressed, and it will be their swan song.

Problem with that scenario is that it is mostly preordered and so no new cash will be coming in from it. Also, the free shipping on a box like this costs a bundle, and it may not be worth it for VMP any more.

Second - more likely - since this set is all done except for the actual pressing, when VMP is finally done, it will likely revert back to Universal or someone else will buy it from the bankruptcy trustee and put it out.

It seems to me very unlikely this will just die at such an advanced stage.
