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

A few cancelled orders now saves them from a flood of issues and threats later. I bet Pauly saw the reddit thread.

It really is a good pressing IMO and sought after. So, a bit reactionary if they are cancelling just based on that and don't already have a mono copy.

There's a 112 page thread on it over at sh.tv if anyone wants some more opinions. 🤣

Oh I don't doubt it, but people are finicky and a slight change in coloring from the mockups is enough to throw people into fits of rage.

The Mono version of this album is way better than the stereo..the RSD version sounded great imo ..and this is the same master just less packaging ... this is my favourite Floyd album .. well worth getting imo

Agreed - I can't think of another album where the mono mix is so different from the stereo - it's not just subtle differences. I was blown away when I first heard the mono version after years of just knowing the stereo.

I think both are worth owning but get mono if you just get one.

I'm not sure I've heard the mono version before. I can't imagine Intersteller Overdrive without the stereo panning in it. That was always my favorite as a young, high, Crazy Diamond.

Anyone remember when they told us to check for errors on listings and we would have a small credit for the store if they fixed it?

I know I sent about 3, but did anyone ever received anything from that? 😂

I sent in like 10-12 corrections. I think they gave me $20 in credit for the first batch I sent in, but then nada. That was also back in the days of the VMP Forums and staff (Storf, Cam, AB, Pauly) coming on and having discussions with us. 🤷‍♂️

I am intrigued by the recent batch of Curated picks, that's a throwback to the old days, even if the prices aren't as good.
 
I really want the Grimes AOTM but I’m on a month-to-month and always just get credit so that I can keep my membership active for the exclusives. I guess this means I’ll need to do and “add-on” but damn, $75 is like a month’s vinyl budget 🤬
 
Phew, glad I already have Ready to Die, I'd hate to be part of that dogpile when swaps open. Rico Nasty is back, too. I've actually been spinning that record a lot recently, definitely an underrated RHH pick.

For me, I'll be going for Irma Thomas, I figured there was no way that wasn't making it to swaps. I need to give Wayne Shorter another listen, as well. For some reason I just never really got into Shorter the way I have for some other jazz legends.

As an aside, now I get to see what happens first: I receive my January WBC box from France, swaps open for VMP's February ROTM, or VMP ships me my January box. 🙃
 
I passed on Alan Shorter previously since it didn’t fully click with me. Will give it another listen or two before Thursday to see if I’m jiving with it this time.

If not, will probably just cancel as I’m not really feeling any of February’s picks.
 
I really want that Ready to Die, but no doubt it's gonna be either a shitshow with a crashed site, or it's gonna sell out in like 30 seconds
