Vinyl Me Please Essentials

[sjaygray]

You know, I'm giving The Soft Bulletin a re-listen after twenty years of never really getting in. I might be starting to get it.

Sadly, there are no releases for Oct that I'm excited about. Looks like I'll be swapping.
There's a few I'm debating but Big Bill Broonzy and the Power of Zeus are two that are looking appealing.
Any recommendations?

Maybe (imo) the best Essentials release since I joined. I recently cancelled a few months ago, but I’ll be back for this no question. One of the touchstone indie rock records.

I might be swapping for Jolene. Idk I have to see what other exclusives release before the ROTMs are announced

None of the tracks are appealing to me this month, so I may try to jumpstart a Yusef Lateef swap train. It's either that or cancelling.

I will admit cancelling has crossed my mind but I think I'll keep going for a bit longer. If the trend continues of releases I don't care about then I too will join the cancel train.

The Flaming Lips is cool, I'll give it a shot. I'm mostly just waiting for November's metal ROTM

My early guess is Stained Class by Judas Priest. Landmark album that made metal what it is today

It's gonna be The Darkness.

I actually like The Darkness. And I have no basis for saying this. I'm just starting rumors.

 

[tonythegamer]

I'm probably gonna cancel after november. Fitting that I'll get only a year in with VMP

I'm going to try and take an interest in the flaming lips this week and see how it sits, but I don't think i'm interested in anything this month either. Anyone heard the Coltrane album? I'm wondering if that would be worth a swap.

Also, anyone who likes country and hasn't grabbed the Paul Cauthen album yet ought to do so. It sounds great to my ears and the signature is a nice touch.

The only way to get info from the company is now reddit.

Hmm. New release I'm guessing The Highwomen which afaik doesn't have any colored variants yet.

Two "old" albums on vinyl for the first time? Does this mean something released in the CD era that was never pressed before? Or classic country that is being reissued on vinyl for the first time?

His post today says the country drop is Friday. No clues other than that.
Edit: So I didn't read his latest comments, two country drops this week, a new country release next week. Hot damn!

Is it not “heaviest since Sabbath” again rather than metal. So less heavy than that so likely not metal at all. Last time it was that clue it was Queen...

I’m still hoping beyond hope that it’s songs for the deaf.
