Vinyl Me Please Essentials

So are we not excited for sleater-kinney

I see a lot of skepticism.. and not just because it's a vmp ROTM
My loose plan is to wait for an AoTM I’m actually pumped about, re-sub using a free record if you come back link they sent me, and make SK my freebie. If the album drops and I’m thoroughly hooked I may not wait though. I have little doubt that this one will hang around forever in the store as a swap.
 
Funny enough, this is the only track I can't get the link trick to work with. Either I'm screwing up the title or they did something weird with it. Might come with a 7 inch or something, they usually include that in the link.

I got it to work just now - dropped the "the" from the album title, and put a dash where the apostrophe is (learned the apostrophe trick back when HMBS was the upcoming ROTM, before y'all found out about the link trick :P). So,


should link to the Essentials page!

Awesome, thanks! Have you ever noticed that it doesn't matter if you swap out rap/essentials/classics in the url for any of the tracks as long as the last part is right? Weird.

goes to the same place as yours.
 
Few thoughts on the Jorge Ben compared to the OG Brazil press:

I think the VMP copy is a pretty damn good repress.

I’d say the OG has the instrumental music a bit more present in the mix compared to the VMP which gives it a more full and dynamic sound but I wouldn’t say it’s anything revelatory.

Overall the VMP is just a tad bit quieter whereas the OG fills the room a bit more but i would certainly not say you have to try and track down an OG.

I’d be happy to keep this VMP as my play copy, it sounds good.
