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

[Crabbers]

$34, you want me to get it for you?

Ohh yes please

 

[NewsFedora]

How much is that Phoenix? I can’t see as a non member

$34. They're all priced at standard VMP ROTM member prices ($34 member/$39 non-member for a single LP, $40 member/$47 non-member for double LPs)

I picked up the Coltrane/Davis release, but I'm wondering if the quality of the release is actually worth it. I see that it's pressed at GZ, even though it's part of the Classics series, and I don't see a mention of the sources used. Anyone know if this is a AAA title?

I can't remember if it's AAA, but I think it's the only place to get those sessions on vinyl. They haven't been released elsewhere.

Isn't the restock email the VMP100 email?

Ah, yeah. Just thought it was the typical waitlist email.

What's interesting though is they made it seem like they would let you know well in advance with the time it's going to drop.

Ohh yes please

FWIW the original pressing was also GZ. It was before classics went all fancy...

Just asked CS if they could tell me how many copies of each title are being repressed. Reply: we're not releasing that info.

If anyone is curious about the catchy song playing in the VMP100 video, it's from the All Things Blue Rising release.

To be fair, they usually don't for their non-numbered releases.

Thanks, I'll be keeping it then.

On the fence about Al Green for $34. Anyone recommend highly?

(Wallet already dented by three other orders on that list).

 

[bdrummond]

FYI - Yet again people are putting these drops on /r/vinylreleases for cheap karma so if you want something snag it before reddit does.

 

[NewsFedora]

There had been some question on if these 10 ROTM represses are just the beginning of several drops or if that's gonna be it, and judging by this article I think that's it.

There's always gonna be something to wish they included in the repress (Madvillain for me) but overall that's not a bad selection of albums, I guess.

Not that I'm trying to make you spend more money but it sounds absolutely phenomenal. One of my personal favorite Classics.

 

[juiceless]

Lol, 10 records repressed? That's what the hype was about? Too much...

Also, despite signing up for alerts, of course VMP didn't send me an email.

These guys make me laugh....

 

[Skeletonframes]

If anybody could snag Saba I will pay you today through PayPal. Want to get it for a friend’s gift, but don’t want to resubscribe.

 

[Sonicpharmacist]

Anyone willing and able to grab either Saba or Coltrane/Davis for me?

Yeah, it's a bit underwhelming. Would've liked to see more RHH records being pressed (De La Soul, Method Man, Blackalicious and Camp Lo would've been nice). I skipped on Saba mainly because I feel my want for it is more FOMO than anything, but Outkast was a nice pickup.

The two selections that seem odd to me are Stankonia and Spiritualized as they were just released at the end of last year, but other than that I can't really complain even if it is underwhelming to me.

Those two are weird since Spiritualized is getting repressed elsewhere and Stankonia was repressed (correct me if I'm wrong but I believe it's the same pressing without the VMP frills). But I guess if you really want the VMP versions there it is. I'll add that I just got a perfectly great copy of QOTSA elsewhere.

Aside, man I'm really getting sick of reddit's VMP. Going to be 100 posts of people showing off their order receipts, plus another 100 of people showing off the albums that 1000s of others bought. I hate the karma system.
