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

I don't know whether Yield was recorded to tape, though with Pearl Jam's hanging out with Neil Young in the mid-90s, it wouldn't surprise me if it was.

I've got an original press and the 2016 repress, and they're both single disc, so I'm intrigued by VMP's being two-disc. I found out about this from my 10C email; I'm not currently a VMP member. If this shows up as one of the choices for a free record for resubscription, I might do it. Or I might just go ahead and resubscribe for a few months, choose another free record(s), and swap for credit to get this.

I was a HUGE Pearl Jam fan in the '90s, though I wasn't too interested in the last couple of albums. But the more time passes, the more I think No Code and Yield were their best albums. I'm more excited about the upcoming RSD Give Way than this, but there are wore albums VMP could pick than Yield, that's for sure.

It's not out until August and yeah with no pressing numbers yet there could be a LOT of these. Question is whether there's a standard 2 LP pressing coming as well or if this is the only 2 LP.

No no no I'm totally speculating just going forward that's the plan, to be the contemporary AP/Mofi audiophile label. I have no clue if Yield is even a remaster or anything.

Nothing in the language on that sale page says anything about a remaster etc. Appears to just be the usual coloured pressing of a wide release. But who knows, I mean they did it with that David Gray release where they inexplicably had the only 45 version of it released. Anythings possible.

The Honky Chateau VMP reissue is also apparently the only AAA one and cut by RKS. The other wide release is digital source apparently. Always weird they get exclusive cuts of wide releases sometimes

What's the difference between the two? Any idea?

Probably just color I’d guess and maybe the PJ Ten Club one is more limited. Total guesses on that though. The link originally came from Pearl Jam’s Twitter which is why it was 404–they published it early

I still cannot understand how they don't market this when they get actual exclusivity.

Taken from the description-

I mean they're not going to put out a press release with "we half-assed it and are going to use it to gouge every last dollar from you. it's gonna make shitty bowls that will wreck needles just by being in the room with them"
