Never seen the movie but I loved the soundtrack in high school. I borrowed their second album on CD from a friend around the same time and remember enjoying a couple bits (10-15%), but overall not being super into it.

Oh man, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing I didn't realize Marshall Allen played on Medeski, Martin and Wood's The Dropper while I was still a member and those exclusives dropped. Probably good for my bank account I guess, but I'd have been more inclined to have picked a copy up had a realized. Dang.

I have not heard this album before but sounds interesting. It has Barney Kessel, Red Mitchell, Benny Carter, etc as part of the side-men line-up. Modern Harmonic is the label that released Gábor Szabó's - Dreams.

I don't know this one either but I've been pretty thrilled with any and everything I've got from Modern Harmonic thus far. Most of it is Sun Ra, naturally, but even the non-Ra stuff has been quite good. Especially Dreams. That shit is magical!

Here's the original, which was used as recently as a 2016 Modern Harmonic reissue:

Y'all were laying it on thick with the peer pressure. So I overrode my classroom blue tooth speaker and played the first track in Robotics class (which drew some WTFs from my students) , and then bought it with Credit.
We're now back to listening to student-approved tracks from Glass Animals, Drake, and Prem Dhillon.

Interesting to see Sylvan Esso in the store drop... That was one of their earliest ROTMs, right?

One of their earliest exclusives. Don't think it was ever a ROTM.
EDIT: I stand corrected... I guess this was in the time before the J-cards/Obis and 30k+ pressings.

Oh wow, you're right. This, along with last week's Charlie Brown Christmas drop, seems to further indicate no previous VMP release is off-limits for a new Exclusive pressing.

They really don't care as long it makes money.

Ok? They're a business so yeah, you'd think that'd be the case. It was honestly stranger that for so long they said they wouldn't ever do re-presses of sold out exclusives.

I mean, the old company had a hard line on these sorts of things. No repressing exclusives, no multiple albums from an artist on the same track, etc. They could have easily made more money by not adhering to these policies, but they were put in place to add extra value to the pressing. Now they've removed that policy. Not saying its a bad thing, it just is what it is. Further distancing themselves from a "club" and towards a regular retailer.

Help me out here, am I crazy, didn't they used to offer "bundles" where you'd SAVE a few bucks vs now where they just charge you the same price if you bought them individually? What's the advantage of buying records as a bundle? If one gets delayed doesn't that also hold up the other? Am I missing something?

Oh yeah, all the time.
And to answer your second question, I don't believe there is one now. Just serves to lock you in for more money.
