Vinyl Me Please Essentials

[Whiteout75]

Bill Fay had a 4 Men With Beards US release a few years ago but if VMP is gonna ignore Midnight Marauders 2LP simply because it’s a Euro release, I guess they could also ignore 4MWB on account they’re absolute shit and everyone should pretend they don’t exist.

Bill Fay is also a RSD release in Europe on drop 2. If that confirms it or rules it out is anyones guess, though. It's one of the best singer/songrwriter albums ever made IMO, so it would be a great pick.

They should really do an aerosmith lp in essentials. Why? I´ve got an unused " Warp this way" punchline lying around here.

Aerosmith "Rocks" with the special limited edition LP that rocks your stylus up and down

When is the announcement? I never seem to know anymore.

Yeah. That’s brilliant. Think panda bear may still just about be my fave

 

[MadLucas]

Anyone else's copy of The Doors sound sibilant at all? I swear I am hearing some distortion here, is it just me???

 

[avecigrec]

I'd never even heard of this before seeing it in guess threads, but finally just previewed the whole thing and... damn! I'll be okay with Bill Fay if that's the way they choose to play it (and was definitely my guess), but holy shit I hope it's this!!

 

[duke86fan]

i mean the version on qobuz was also kinda distorted

Am I in the right thread? Now Playing Essentials VMP n°79, África Brasil by Jorge Ben. There a few record that give me power as this one. And it has been wonderfully repressed by VMP.

They need to come back to him and press 'A Tabua De Esmeralda.'

And his collab with Gilberto Gil, Ogum Xango. Improvisation at its finest.

Yes! We’ve had that one framed and hung up for a few years now.

I didn’t get it, but I just saw a post on Reddit complaining of the exact same thing. I was considering swapping for it next month, but I am not hearing great things about it.

Can confirm that this is the 2020 repress, KPG@CA. Mine just arrived today.

Came on here to say this!!! It's honestly AWFUL. Is anyone else hearing this? The sibilance is like horrifying! It's got to be a pressing defect because I can't imagine anyone would master this and think it sounds OK. I was so excited for this album too!

 

[oldschoolkirby]

I have a very crackly beat-up original mono (which is why I was happy to get a new version)… will try to check it for that sibilance as well.

I felt like light my fire sounded terrible on my copy. I thought the drums (particularly the snare hits) sounded distorted.

The guy on reddit reviewing the Doors mono with no mono setup is the most VMP thing ever
