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

Just got an email saying "a title you were waitlisted for will be available in Swaps" for Thursday. I rarely used the Waitlist feature (since I assumed it didn't work), so I'm a bit curious as to what flagged it. The swap preview isn't live yet, although there is an announcement that the third Thursday of every month will now be the day ROTMs and swaps drop going forward, so December wasn't a holiday-related on-off.

Off the top of my head, I recall waitlisting Monk's Palo Alto (which I eventually picked up during a TBT drop) and Method Man's Tical. Will be curious to see if either ends up in swaps this go-round.
Did you waitlist Djo because according to reddit that is a super secret swap this month?

Nope! My email was totally generic (and I have no idea what Djo is). I refreshed and saw the swaps preview is now up. Still not sure what I waitlisted that was flagged... Hub of Hubbard maybe?

I am sure a lot of people will be wanting that Blackalicious.
 
Does anyone have the VMP Badbadnotgood 'Talk Memory'?

Tempted to add a sub to swap it out.

Actually, do we know what each sub is this month?

I went for the bandcamp version of Talk Memory so I can't speak to VMP's version.

All four tracks leaked/confirmed for January:

Essentials: Sigur Rós ‎– Ágætis Byrjun
Classics: Barbara Lea - Lea in Love
RHH: E-40 - Tha Hall of Game
Country: Iris DeMent - Infamous Angel


I'd be all over Blackalicious in swaps if I hadn't already grabbed it back when it was the ROTM. I might end up just doing Hub of Hubbard or The Meters, as nothing else really grabs me in swaps and I don't really care for any of the other tracks this month.
 
It's honestly the worst timing. That and Tical are my must haves and of course the moment I convince myself to let it go...
Isn’t there another version of Tical floating around for relatively cheap? If I recall UDiscover Music was literally giving copies away for free a while back. I haven’t checked lately so maybe those have dried up as well. Blackalicious is a tough one though, I assumed after Gift Of Gab passed away they woulda been working on a reissue campaign but obviously nothing yet.
