Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

They are both magnificent, especially Shina Williams! Takes me to somewhere tropical in the Caribbean and just drinking coconut water and having a delicious curry, and having fun at the beach! 🌴🥥🏖

Everyone, including you @Kyuuji , needs to listen to that Shina Williams! It's funky as, but is so tasteful at the same time! It's an amazing Sunset, chill, bringing good vibes for when you have people over, kinda record! It's a must grab! 🗽:cool:

Thanks for taking requests. Same solid emoji work I've learned to expect.

I got Mabadu from the PIF thread and Shina as a bonus record, after VMP messed something up in my account. I just kept passing both of them up for a long time, before that. Once I had them, I was putting them on a ton for a while.

They must have overpressed that EL-P. That was such a big release for them to do, in my eyes. I guess everything is subjective.

It seems they got more of the El-P pressed because it was sold out for a hot minute. But who knows.

They repressed the EL-P! It sold out quickly during their first run, so it was definitely a big release for them! ⭐

Awesome you got Shina as a bonus record! It's such a joy to spin! :cool: 🏖 🕺

I guess that I should have said it looks like the over RE-pressed the EL-P, but I guess you're both right and the fact that they had to repress it at all does say something.

I essentially got bot the Shina and the Mabadu for free. It was probably the fact that I knew they were still available on black wax from Mr Bongo, that I felt like I could keep glossing over them, forever, but I'm glad I finally pulled it together.
 
I'm hoping the same. I lucked out and bought Lazer Guided Melodies for $2 at a garage sale when I lived in Olympia about 15 years ago. I found a copy of Let It Come down at the Everyday Music in Bellingham a couple of years ago, but that place annoys me how terribly they treat their stock, so I left it. Nothing is ever in sleeves and the shelve wear is always super fucked up. I'd love to see them do those, as well.

Mazzy Star got their repress, after having a terrible one through Plain. What else is notoriously bad...? Their Mr Bungle, I think.

Aside from Spiritualized, the other catalog that Plain has, which has always pissed me off, is WEEN. Let's get that Mollusk, White Pepper, and 12 Golden Country Greats bundle. Then do a Z-Rock Hawaii pressing

I agree.
However, their pressings of the first 3 Low albums had two rare things going for them:
1. They sounded fantastic
2. I actually was concerned about this, so I reached out to Low who co firmed that, yes, they were on board with the process. I am not 100% if they were involved or not, though the LP's are the best-sounding Plain issuings I have heard.

That's good to hear. It's a crapshoot with those guys, but some specific pressings have had among the worst reviews I've ever seen. I guess it's case by case, but it's hard to trust them.

People really hate this Mr Bungle reissue

 
What swaptions did I miss? I just looked at the options available and these are pretty much the same ones I saw last month. :unsure:

This is probably going to be the month when I try that swap for credit option with Essentials. How much do they give for internationals?
 
Yeah, that Kashif album is classy, glamorous and is rollerblading fun! It’s like living your joyful teenage fantasy but also living your cocktail, classy fantasy! Love that album to bits! “I Just Gotta Have You” is one of my favourite songs of the 80’s! It’s a propulsive, shiny, dreamy yet groovy as sexy jam! 🕺💃

Oops! My bad! 🙊 I just have a bit of dirty mind! 🧠 Forgive me! 🐒👁 Just noticed how submissive you were being towards your majestic majesty Donny Benét! 😂👑

Yay! Can’t wait for you to enjoy those summer vibes when you spin Nick Hakim! 🏖🍹

Yeah, I noticed we have great music taste too! 🎯🥇💯

Tell me about my Nick Hakim pick @NathanRicaud

I will, but I’ve got to leave in around 7 minutes because I have a PT session! I’ll try my best to squeeze in what I think about your Nick Hakim pick JonnyH! 🤪

Nick Hakim’s WILL THIS MAKE ME GOOD is a mellow, sad, dreary, dreamy, intimate, Lo-fi, home-made record that is indulgent, lavish and has a steamy, summer, romantic tropical getaway sound! It’s absolutely beautiful! A lot of the production is washy, yet creamy and colourful! Nick’s vocals are soothing, velvety and allure you into his psychedelic soulful world! You are in for a treat with JonnyH! ♥

I’m extremely happy you picked this VMP exclusive up! It’s going to be a record you’ll enjoy spinning on those more lazy-ish kinda days! 🧸
