Thank you, very helpful. Has there been any indication that the renewal offer might extend into next year?

It won't
I am kind of in the same boat. I actually think they stop it before the end of the year if stock drops off.

My yearly runs out in a few days and I have until the end of this month to add the free records if I want to re-sub. There are TONS on offer so I cant imagine it will get to the point where they have run out of stock, especially if it ends before the New Year anyway.

I wonder why they are doing this Ray Barretto album in mono? 1967 seems a bit late for that, no? Anyone know if it is true mono or a fold down? As you can see I’ve got questions
Not sure but I don’t think 67 is late for mono. Lots of superior mono mixes from that year in pop and rock especially. I was initially apprehensive as well, but I heard the mono mix on YouTube and it sounds good to me

There appear to be original monos.
A good bit of daptone’s output is mono. So you know definitely not actually late.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard the mono? I’m assuming it’s a dedicated cut. Not sure what Fania’s recording setup was like but I must say, the stereo version I have is really really good. Hopefully VMP beats it. Ray Barretto - Acid

Presume that one of the 1974s is Phases and Stages. Interesting that next quarter is bumped together.
Some guesses for the 2nd 74 album:
Brian Eno - Here Come The Warm Jets
King Crimson - Red
Kraftwerk - Autobahn
Stevie Wonder - Fullfillingness’ First Finale
Some guesses for 75 are:
Parliament - Mothership Connection
Patti Smith - Horses
Aerosmith - Toys In The Attic

2/3 of the artists are female apparently (depending on how you count them)
and apparently people are going to hate the January one because its probably woman and its in a genre that wont get respect
the current guesses on the discord are Labelle - Nightbirds, Fleetwood Mac - ST (Or ABBA), Willie Nelson - Phases and Stages

I would be shocked to see VMP get a King Crimson album, but am also always good with more people listening to King Crimson.
Same with Stevie Wonder. I don’t think he’s really allowed anyone use the master tapes at least right?

The original masters, no, it would be very unlikely.
But VMP isn't a From The Orginal Tapes reissue label. If I were them I'd do Stevie if I could.

Yes, I could easily see them being satisfied with working off a hi-res copy

That was a little bit of my thinking to be honest
