Yeah, honestly don't remember the last time I got my shipment this early in the month. Happy it's here for sure though.

I have the Japanese Dylan reissues above aside from Freewheelin’. They sound fantastic. I have not A/B’d BoB vs my mofi yet and I need to…. But for what it’s worth they sounded good enough to me to pass on seeking out HW and BIABH Mofi stereo copies.I now have too many copies of this album. I still need to do proper comparisons, I generally end up listening to the album rather than comparing. But the Japanese pressings, I think could be as good as or maybe even slightly better than the Mofi. They do sound slightly different, system & personal preference may come into play. The Japanese pressings are much much cheaper than Mofi.
Someone on Cogs called 'Great horse' is saying they are all shit, He's only reviewed these titles. I suspect he's a flipper and has a bunch of Mofis. The packaging, pressing & sound are great on all the ones I have.

Curious to see what, if anything, is different or a potential upgrade for the october essential over the plangent one?

This is shaping up to be an extremely underwhelming month. The only thing in swaps I’m mildly interested in is that turnpike troubadours record

Springsteen's Nebraska is a fantastic album, but for VMP it's a boring pick. Again, don't mean the album is boring but the pick.
Then again, I guess it's an easy "Essentials" argument.

It's a hell of an album. Just wish there was something more unique about their pressing. I can see it being one that many VMP members don't have.

Just FYI, but TT is $31 in the store, which is probably below the price of your sub. I'd swap for credit and use it to purchase later.

There’s also that and blu, but I can get a standard pressing of that for $25. Extremely underwhelming month. May be getting just interpol this month since I opted out last month

It’s going to be LOUD then…
The standard black one I picked up as an RSD first about a decade back was a bellers so this makes the decision not to renew even easier…

Swap for credit? If something doesn’t come up in store or swaps the next few months can always just knock it off the next renewal.

Like I said when it was leaked earlier - every time Bruce does his “woo” it’s going to sound like Ric Flair is in your living room

When I wake up in the morning after spinning this, and all my booze is gone, I'm totally blaming Ric.Like I said when it was leaked earlier - every time Bruce does his “woo” it’s going to sound like Ric Flair is in your living room

Think that’s the plangent processed one that was broken out from the box set. It’s awesome. Think I PIFed my OG after comparing them

Yeah, that Volume 1 box sounds amazing, so not sure I really need another version of this… I’m trying to de-duplicate my collection as much as possible already (…unsuccessfully…
)

Not a bad direction to go. I'm personally getting it (don't have a copy yet), but this will at least be around for a few months. Worst case scenario, it's great and you grab it when they put it in the store midway through October (which is inevitable).

I love the album but not even really considering it since I have the box/plangent already. no room on my shelves to double dip so typically when I'm happy with a pressing I have, I stop seeking out minimal potential upgrades.
