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

[imtheocean]

So wait, today's VMP giveaway is literally a company that "professionally grades" vinyl and then encases it to "preserve its value"? ARE YOU FUUUUUCKING KIDDING ME?

If I won this (which I'm not entering) I'd just send in multiple copies of "Whipped Cream and Other Delights".

Encase a little strip of raw bacon in epoxy and hang it underneath.

I can believe nearly anything imaginable is a real service these days however I can't believe an ostensibly audiophile music company would partner with a service that is designed around the idea that your music is to be collected solely for its monetary value and that it should never actually be listened to in order to retain that. It's fucking gross.

It’s brilliant from VMP when you think about it though. Actively encourage people not to play the records, customers will never realise the shitty pressing quality, no replacement copies needed.

Matt’s a bonafide evil genius

I mean you sure as hell aren’t gonna play precious records on that Crosley or Victrola!!!

Do we even know where he is?

I think losing access to the interscope archives really hurt them more than they will admit publicly

What’s the Victrola gonna be doing?

The Victrola is strictly for mono Beatles albums

The Victrola is strictly for mono Beatles albums

This is the way.

 

[Nee Lewman]

The Victrola is strictly for mono Beatles albums

What about other mono records?

 

[Nee Lewman]

If I type Mono into my collection on cogs, I get 207 hits (sounds low) but while I do have an insane amount of Beatles records considering they only released 13 albums, they certainly aren’t all Beatles records.

 

[jamieanderson1968]

What about other mono records?

BURN THEM!!
