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

Woohoo, I’m so excited!!!!

I’m going to be keeping all four ROTM’s, as I love all four of the picks, but I might change my Country ROTM if something really good appears in the Swaptions!

Nervous about how many more times GZ can ruin a track but going with classics, essentials and rhh. Hoping for at least one clean album.

The Classics pressing is likely to be clean, as it’s pressed at QRP! For the most part, Rap & Hip-Hop (R&HH) pressings have no widespread issues. The last R&HH ROTM though (OutKast’s ATLiens) was a disaster pressing wise and it’s good to know VMP will very likely fix the widespread issue on Side D (like they are fixing the widespread issues on The Mars Volta pressing!)

The Wu-Tang Clan being an Essentials ROTM and pressed at GZ isn’t promising, but hopefully there isn’t a widespread issue! We just have to keep asking for replacements if there are defects/widespread issues!

 

[bdrummond]

It's like trying to will widespread issues out of existence. Bold strategy, let's see if it pays off.

 

[bdrummond]

On the other hand though, "widespread issues" was said 5 times so I believe like the Candyman, widespread issues will appear.

I was thinking about doing this and adding country to swap if anything great showed up in swaps but just looked and Country is currently on a standby list. Hopefully swaps are uneventful this month. merp merp.

I am hoping to find Soul Food in there again, and Sons of Kemet would be awesome since it doesn't seem like those are moving very quickly in the store.

Probably because it was pretty overpriced. Fantastic album, but I picked it up from my local shop for a lot cheaper.

Unless something crazy pops up in swaps, I’m keeping all four tracks. Probably the strongest month of the year so far.

Of course Saba comes up in a month where I'm pretty much maxed out.

I can try and grab it for you. No promises as I have a noon meeting so will have to try to swap really quickly.

Sadly I forgot to add RHH to get PE so I am on the wait list for it

Which album do we figure is the least likely to sell-out? Emmylou? Just trying to figure if I want to swap which RotM to swap.

That’s my guess. You never know though...

Swaps are open now. Hip Hop is the only one with a Waitlist.

 

[TenderLovingKiller®]

Signed up for a single month of Wu-Tang. They better not fuck it up.

 

[jfitzy]

Holy shit, there’s some good stuff in swaps. Swapped Emmylou for Handsome Boy Modeling School.

 

[Ghost]

Saba, Goodie Mob, Spiritualized, John lee Hooker, HBMS in swaps

When I signed up the only sub that was available as a side sub was Country both classics and hip-hop were unavailable.

Edit: looks like Classics is back available.

Hoping a few of those open up, it's the one I really want and took too long to add that track. One of my favorites.

Szabo was there for a swap for a quick minute, had it but it wouldn't let me add.

Dreams was a swap and I just missed it.
