Vinyl Me Please Essentials

[dbarila]

I've had multiple bad presses from Pallas, from multiple labels and sources. They (In my opinion) have not been very good recently.

The VMP Odelay that a lot of people had noise issues with was pressed at Pallas.

Sooooo it's 2LP but only lists A side and B side of LP1 are they doing bonus tracks?

That's weird you can add it to your cart if it's going to be a January Essential

Is it really THAT weird considering how the last month or so has gone?

looks like it's the expanded edition which features 5 live tracks and some bonus tracks

Good point.

If you look at the back cover art you can see added live recordings and some other songs on LP2

 

[Memo]

I don't think I'll be swapping January.

So, should I aim to get The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Jazz Impressions of Japan or Miles Davis - Sorcerer.

So does the original pressing according to discogs, and its 180g. I sure hope they update that page before announcement day. So far we have standard weight, standard speed, no download code and pressed at GZ. No mention of a remaster either. It doesn’t get any lazier than that.

I only see the expanded edition on CD on Discogs unless I'm missing something.

It’s listed in the notes section at the bottom of the page, but it may mean that the download comes with those addition tracks and not the vinyl I guess. Does anyone own it that can confirm? Also, the average sale price is 12 bucks.

I have an original copy of the record, it's only 1LP but I got it used so no download code I also have it on cassette but not sure I ever used the download code for that... I'm feeling really helpful at the moment

Issues with VMP aside (and I know that's a large aside), this actually looks to be a great package on this album (2LPs with bonus tracks) and the vinyl color actually makes sense with the album.

My read of the discogs summary is that the b-sides and live tracks are MP3s that come as a download with the album...it's not clear whether that's the case with the UK release (which only notes that a sticker says that it comes with MP3s of the album).

Yeah you might be right about that. I definitely don’t need any tacked on live tracks or B sides on vinyl so this is looking incredibly disappointing to me. But again, hopefully they just need to update the listing with everything that is good about it. At this point it looks like they forgot all of that.

The preview video showed 2xLPs, and I don't see any Discogs listings like that, so I think we're getting those bonus tracks on vinyl for the first time?
