Damn, from the mock-up it looks more like their Phoebe Bridgers Punisher. That end result is wayyyy off the mark.

Aww man, that Eddie Gale is the only one I'm missing from the colored VMPxBlue Note

Same, they musta had like 3 copies. Entice people with Eddie and then see if you can instead move some of your stagnant stock. It’s almost a bait and switch.

Hey all, I've got ~$80 of Store credit due to a couple seam splits and a Swap for credit. So I have 2 questions:
1) Does CS still let you switch Store Credit to Membership credit when I'm up for renewal?
2) Any feedback on the quality of pressing of the following titles I'm considering:
Dead Boys - Young, Loud & Snotty
Bill Evans - Symbiosis
Joe Henderson - Mirror, Mirror
Sons of Kemet - Black to the Future
Jazz is Dead 4 (Azymuth)
Dadawah - Peace and Love

1) Yes, you need to send them an email saying you want them converted to membership credits, and they will automatically deduct when renewals come around.

I have the black Sons of Kemet and it's great. If the pressing is the same with a different color then you're good.

I have the:
Bill Evans - Symbiosis
Joe Henderson - Mirror, Mirror
Sons of Kemet - Black to the Future
They all sound great. I prefer the Henderson over the Evans MPS, but thats more a personal preference. The Sons Of Kemet is one of my favourite albums of the year and this pressing sounds great to me.
I have the Jazz is Dead 4 (Azymuth) on its way to me but I literally only had shipped for it in the past 30mins. I would say that the first 3 that I had all had issues. Mega warped and one had a strange surface noise constantly. BUT VMP replaced each of them and the replacements do sound great. I think its pot luck with that series as to whether you get a good copy or not.
Sons of Kemet sounds good but it’s a shitty press. I have a 4th copy on the way…..
Mostly bad warps and off centre issues. No audible issues so far. I better find some wood to knock on.
Edit: I had a black copy from Amazon before the VMP came in and it was perfect.

I mean it is National High Violet screwup bad, but it isn't good.

Also worth noting for @TCell that I think black pressings of those MPS titles also exist and should be somewhat widely available if that sways your thinking at all. I have the VMP of Mirror, Mirror ordered but they wouldn't bundle it with my ROTM for some reason even though I ordered it at the same exact time as Lee Morgan and they were both in stock...

My copy of DJO - Twenty Twenty was packed like shit so has a pretty good seam split on it. Disappointed. Emailed in.

Mine just arrived too, but I'm stuck at work right now. There's some sign of ring wear on the sleeve so I can already tell we're off to a great start with this.
