Vinyl Me Please Anthology

I mean in 2008 AP did a 2 LP 45 of this with the original back cover and in 2009 Blue Note themselves reissued it with the original back cover so this excuse from VMP is total bull.
I'm doing my best to put the pressure on them on the FB group. It really should not be ignored or handwaved so easily.


Wonder why they were pressing pause on the forums now? lol
 
Pressing sounds pretty good! Listening to Horace now and I'm into it.
Yeah I said it earlier and I'll say it again, I really hope these all sound great and that everyone is happy with their purchases. I don't get any joy out of pointing out VMPs foot shooting incompetence (okay a little joy) but I just really wish they would do better, but they've repeatedly shown that they either won't or can't fix their myriad issues.
 
While I was looking at the Classic Records and Analogue Productions versions to see their cover art, it occurred to me I could just sell this copy and then buy one of those. Then it occurred to me that no one is going to want to buy a fucked up version of the record when they could easily get one that is done correctly. So, the album is basically devalued by having this mistake. Not that I would want to resell it under other circumstances, but how much would someone actually pay for this now? Maybe $10? Do they even realize they sold this set as an "experience"?
 
One of my BIGGEST pet peeves in this hobby I’ve chosen is the people who insist on rolling through just to comment with I dOnT CaRe I’m HeRe FoR tHe MuSiC like ok we are too but this shit ain’t cheap, so stop trying to cheapen/negate valid criticism just because you’ve decided you’re above it. Those comments started like 90% of the overblown drama on the last forum.

Not saying y’all are doing that, just talking about stuff I’m reading in the Facebook group. Though I guess if any of you are the ones posting those comments then I *am* talking about you.

100% The dude who posted a picture of the back cover and said to just read that while listening to the album really annoys the shit out of me.
 
And to think there was a time where I was slightly regretting not hopping on the Anthology train. It was a cool concept, but I could see how many moving parts there had to be from a mile away, and I wasn't confident that VMP could maneuver them without at least a couple major mix-ups. On one hand I'm not happy to see it, but on the other hand,



what was it they said after the Doggystyle incident? Details matter? They really should've clarified whether or not it's the correct details that matter the most :P
