I also thought it was this at first.

My in laws got me this one 2 or 3 years ago. It's fine and looks like it's still available for under $25. System Of A Down - Toxicity

Sames, got excited for 2 seconds

Thanks! Seems like there is no record left for me in the list then.

I already own the MOV strokes so that's out, found sublimes ST to be only ok, and know zero about zz top or STP to really warrant the want, I'm totally down for SOAD and raw power Iggy mix but I dunno if I'm spending that 36 bucks

Forgot I have a MOV of that Stone Temple Pilot's record. Always a good sign that I need to not buy new vinyl when I don't even remember my existing ones. The Strokes is pretty but nothing catches my fancy enough to sign back up.

If expensive AF now but the KPG of ZZ Top is insanely good. It will not be beat, full stop. But it's hard to find so if this even came close I'd be happy with that.

If like to hear that one to compare to my OG. I'm sure it's better, because I'm not blown away by it, but it's an album I'd upgrade. It's probably the only one of these I'm interested in, but I'm curious about the track either which way.

Yeah the thing with that one is, it really benefits from KPGs "detail" oriented mastering. You get that nice stacatto high end. The rim shots on La Grange are tight and biting. With RKS's tendency to soften and round the edges on things, I'm not certain he's the right guy for the job on this one. Although I'm just guessing it would be him doing it...

one of the best sounding classic rock records in my collection. it has a ton of punch.

Yeah I bought a copy for my buddy's birthday years back, REALLY wish I'd bought two.

If I were ever to jump back on the VMP train I'd grab that ZZ Top for sure.

The Strokes had the UK (better) cover and has New York City Cops (better) instead of When It Started

While I agree that “New York City Cops” is a better track than “When It Started” NYC Cops is on both the US and UK vinyl reissues so that isn’t a differentiating factor between the two.

I also agree that the UK cover art is better (though I had a soft spot for the US cover art since that’s the cover I owned).

I already own both the US and UK on wax so I am good regardless but it’s more of a difference of album artwork to anything else. I will say the US pressing can in a gatefold where the MOV UK pressing came in a single pocket sleeve.

Yup, I found a copy at my local for around $25 two or three years ago and agree with everyone it sounds fantastic.

This might have interested me in the 2003, but definitely not in 2023.

Yeah, or in 2006 when I started collecting records.

I have the KPG Tres Hombres, it is fucking awesome. It is also Jalapeno green

Definitely recommend getting acquainted with those two bands you're not familiar with. Very different styles, but both are rock legends.

meh... I am lukewarm on STP, a greatest hits would suffice I imagine. ZZ Top is great though.

I decided to play the biggest hit from the zz top album on tidal today and like right away I realized "wait.. I've heard this before"


Then my years of playing guitar hero awoke in me, not knowing the song but knowing that riff like the back of my hand
