Vinyl Me Please Essentials

Finally got The Stooges. The Cale mix is alright but I prefer the original so far. Probably just ingrained in me. Not a huge fan of the mix for I Wanna Be Your Dog. Is there supposed to be dropouts in the right channel at times?

I do miss a few things about the original mix of that one song. But I've decided that I prefer the Cale treatment of the album overall.
 
I get the feeling it's like Queen. It might be everywhere, but it doesn't mean the majority of subscribers have previously picked it up. That's the camp my house falls into. I like Stevie. I like this album. But I see it everywhere all the time, so I know I don't need to rush to grab it. But if VMP is going to do the thinking for me... why not right? Especially given that I'm getting this version at the old grandfathered pricing.

A rare moment of praise and explanation of why I haven't cancelled my account yet.
Right on. I’m in the same camp. In fact, this is exactly what VMP is supposed to actually be; a music curation service.
 
I like the stooges but it's clear that its proto punk and not full punk

The John cale mix does give a heavier edge but they clearly aren't yet at the state of fun house or raw power and certainly not need anything very fast soon. If a standard nonpost punk band made we will fall they would be like "wtf is this"

I feel the same about both this and the Stooges pick last month. I like both and haven't gotten around to picking them up. I skipped out on Queen though, I knew I'd never spin it.
 
For the upcoming White Stripes, what is the difference between this and the copies that are widely available?

We actually don't know. It's possible these are the most recent plates from the third man plant opening which were only used to press red vinyl with screen printed covers that were only available at the Detroit location on opening day.

No one has come out and told us that though. Its just a theory I have based on being a massive jack white fan.

That's my guess as well. They have plates, not widely released. Perfect for VMP.
