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

Alright, the bullshit with Fantasma aside, can anyone explain this? Says on their site it isn't supposed to be out until next month (this was after it initially saying it'd be ready for July), but how are people getting this?

I know my local has posted they will get theirs this Friday
 
Just shot them an email. We’ll see what happens, could just be a UI edgecase they haven’t encountered

wondering if it’s related to Alfredo and Skull Session (and a few other pre-orders) changing to say they’re in stock several days ago. To my knowledge no one has actually gotten shipping notifications on any of them.

I received my copy from BullMoose today. Wonder if people are putting the indie variant in instead? I didn’t see an indie variant listing yet
 
Man gotta say Rainbo did a great job on this Etta Jones sclusie from last year. It sounds phenomenal, not even sure the source but every time I throw this record on I’m just enveloped in its sound. Am I right or nah?
A bit bummed I missed out on that one. I grabbed the Sonny Rollins and Yusef Lateef in that series and both sound awesome but both were pressed at RTI. I find that Craft's reissues are pretty solid and Sonny and Yusef I think came from the OJC plates. Etta had the pleasure of being recorded by RVG as well so I'm sure that doesn't hurt!

Also my Holy Hive arrived today. Thanks again for that rec!! Just realized that Mary Lattimore is on that album too.

That’s good to know. I still need to add a solid Saxophone Colossus pressing to my collection bummed I missed the train on that one. As for Holy Hive cheers! Mine should be arriving tomorrow, really excited to spin it. It’s going to get plenty of spins I can tell. Looks like Mary Lattimore is actually featured on that album which is just a sign for me to spring for her exclusive that went up today 😂

If you need Saxophone Colossus and don't want to drop $50 on the VMP one on discogs, I would check out this pressing:

It's the same plates as the VMP, which are, in turn, the same plates as the DCC reissues that Hoffman/Kevin Gray in the 90s. They are all analogue as far as I know. OJCs are usually solid too and most of the ones from the 80s and earlier are also all analogue.
