Vinyl Me Please Essentials

[Hollywood]

The pressing for Mezzanine is spectacular.

Not sure which one you own but agree

 

[Viking Dan]

... and ole' Dead Eyes (aka Kevin Morby) picks.

Don't you mean Mr. Nipple?

 

[Mather]

Not sure which one you own but agree

I think they're all pretty much the same. It's one of the newer ones.

 

[dbarila]

So follow up question, which Massive Attack albums are y'all making me buy today?

I'll answer this, all of them!!!

Mezzanine is one of the few albums that ranked up among my all time favorite albums after one listen.

 

[Viking Dan]

Ugh, yeah I just gave it a quick preview and my senses were horribly offended, and now they are mad at me for subjecting them to it.

This is how I feel anytime I try and listen to Tame Impala.

So I feel you.

 

[bdrummond]

That's the best thing about this place. NONE OF THEM WE ALL JUST STARTED TALKING ABOUT IT

Sorry about that....I saw someone call 100th Window Essential and I just kind of snapped.

Nobody-asked-for-a-story-but-you're-gonna-get-it-anyway-time:

Youngish me went into a record store actually looking for U.N.K.L.E.'s "Psyence Fiction" and as they came around the same time my teenage brain got mixed up and bought Mezzanine by mistake. Turned out to be the best kind of mistake and I've been a huge Massive Attack fan since.

Psyence Fiction is still another classic album though, one I would be more than happy to give VMP money for.

I listened to Psyence Fiction for the first time a few weeks ago and loved everything about it. I actually thought it reminded me of Mezzanine a bit. I would fully support VMP doing that album.

If you can track down the Heligloland pressing I would jump on it cause its totally their best album

Tame Impala doesn’t offend my sensibilities I just find them kinda boring. I don’t hate it and wouldn’t turn it off if it was playing on the radio but I wouldn’t go out of my way to listen to it either.

I have the most recent reissue and It sounds really good all things considered…

Have you given their earlier stuff a shot? Innerspeaker is a wonderful psychrock album with a lot of epic epic highlights.

 

[dbarila]

Isn't that still widely available?

Not really. I went on a hunt for it and it was sold out most places.

 

[bdrummond]

I found one copy in the UK, but I've been pretty much firing blanks for a decent copy with good shipping options.

Yeah, several times. A few of my friends enjoy them immensely and they are hyped on the internet along with many other artist I enjoy a great deal. So I’ve given Innerspeak multiple changes but it has yet to click. Who knows in a year or two they might be my favorite but currently it doesn’t do much for me.

I have the Currents box set, I really enjoy it but honestly, it's all the Tame Impala I need. It scratches the itch.

Just when I thought I was out...

Damn, by time I convert you're right. It's not cheap. Good looking out though.

Ugh, just checked the UK store I found it on and yeah, still about $50CAD plus shipping.

EDIT: I just found a copy for $48 w/ free shipping on Amazon. Now to make the case to my wife after I've snuck in a few MF DOOM album purchases recently.
