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

[mgp]

I really really love Destroyer's Rubies but already own the 2012 reissue. So don't try to convince me I need this one (please).

BOUGHT DESTROYER

i got it for free because i had 45 dollars in credits

also its pressed at RTI so this is a safe one

 

[McGlam]

I had been looking for a copy of Rubies recently and had credit so I'm in. I have been on a bit of a Bejar kick after getting the Kaputt exclusive from Turntable Lab. It sounds phenomenal.

Huge fan of a couple Destroyer records but haven't really checked that one out much yet. Guess now's the time.

This is my favorite one. I doubt I will grab the VMP pressing but it’s still an album I need to for sure pick up.

Edit: “European Oils” is probably my favorite Destroyers song.

Picked up Destroyer's Rubies, my favorite album of his and I haven't seen it at a reasonable price in a while, so this seemed like as little risk of a purchase as there can be with VMP these days.

Thought you were posting a picture of yourself singing there for a second... nope it's Dan Bejar.

If you haven't picked it up, I recommend Streethawks. The 2011 reissue is a Kevin Gray mastering and is sounds amazing.

DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL! YOU'RE BLOWING UP MY WALLET!

I am more of a Danzig “Mother” karaoke kinda guy. I don’t think my voice is reedy/nasally enough to do Bejar justice.

Boots

'Boots' is Nancy Sinatra's 1966 debut album. We have it on Black and White Swirl vinyl.

Nancy Sinatra up as well. $44 for non-members lol.

May end up grabbing this as I have $35 in credit laying around. Never listened before but its right up my alley so far.

And for anyone who doesn't want to pay $40 its up for pre-order at LITA for $28 Nancy Sinatra - Boots | Light In The Attic Records

I’m just over here patiently waiting for a definitive Nancy & Lee reissue. Looks like a nice set though!

Rough Trade UK had a better-looking (IMO) red and yellow variant up on their site yesterday, but seem to have taken it down. VMP is probably cheaper for members, all told, shipping considered. But, given the cover-heavy tracklist on Boots, I think I'm content with the compilation from LITA last year.

They must have just put these up. 8-Track!

August is my last month as a VMP member after 5ish years. I wasn't around when swaps opened yesterday, so a few good options are now gone (including Withers as a swap). I'd love to get advice for my final record. Here's what I'm considering:

1) Four Tet
2) Open Mike Eagle
3) Nada Surf
4) Getting another Demon Days and gifting it to a friend.

Oh, it's coming...sometime! Check out this twitter thread on the graphic design elements of the Boots (and subsequent Nancy & Lee) package:

Open Mike Eagle can almost always be purchased for cheaper than swaps, unless you're still geandfathered in on the cheaper plan - even then worth checking.

FWIW I love that Four Tet. But keep in mind there were a lot of warps on it. But they will have replacements for years on that one.

Thanks, and yeah, I'm coming to the end to my grandfathered in pricing, hence the departure.

Streethawk is my favourite of his albums, mainly because I saw Dan a couple times solo around then (once at a 100 person movie theatre, another opening for Cat Power), after he'd gotten back from Spain and Montreal to avoid playing New Pornographers shows. Funny enough he's playing with them this fall for their throwback shows.
