I believe it was filed under W at the end (I think swaps are listed alphabetical on the new site as opposed to chronological on the old). Would love the see let it bleed in there or a stax box!

Trick I used was to ctrl-f for ‘exclusive’ as the real sexy swaps are labeled ‘swap exclusive’. Then you can very quickly jump through the list for those.
Aiming for Rolling Stones, Rowland Howard, and Caroline Polachek.

Just remember that once you lock in a swap, it's locked in for good (aside from maybe begging CS to change it). If there's text above a record that says "swap exclusive," then it's probably in extremely limited supply and won't last long.
Hopefully the site won't crash tomorrow because I imagine everyone is going to be F5'ing like fiends tomorrow afternoon. Expectations have been set high after Woodstock... be prepared for disappointment.

Be there on time and keep your eye on what people are saying here. I found out about Woodstock from someone here about 15 minutes after it opened up.

So whoever does the VMP twitter kindly helped me out. My Rick Ross hasnt shipped because for some reason a delivery address never attached to the order. So they created a new order me.
Its always something but at least I finally know it should finally be shipping soon...

It looks like a really nice book though! I reckon it would be a great swaption! I think I would really enjoy flipping through the book! And it would look good in my room too

I actually have a feeling it will be the other way around! I feel like leftovers from Motown, Stax or Ghostly will end up in the Swaptions!
I just have this crazy feeling that it’s going to be the best Swaptions yet in terms of selections!

I think those Anthologies are possible, but I don't think they will be available in nearly the numbers that the Woodstock box sets were, so VMP will end up with 10 people super stoked and 200 people chuffed they didn't get the shiny thing for super cheap, after Matt "What if I had more time" Fiedler's mass email.

Ironically, flipping through a list of record stores with primary purpose of having something to look good sitting around is the level of research and focus VMP put into it.

Maybe that’s true, but I’d still love the book because the images and the overall read would be visually aesthetically pleasing!
If I want a good looking kind of coffee table book, I’d want it to be this one!
I actually do hope the book is a swaption because I’d love to pick it up at $23!

Did they do any research? I was under the impression that they just solicited submissions from *anyone* for each state and picked the "best" essays.

One day left on the 20% off code, y'all. I just went and pulled the trigger on Ivy Sole live, Mndsgn, and the AP Pet Sounds. It'll be my very first Analogue Productions record, so I'm hoping it's worth it even at the 20% discount.
Edit: A horrifying thought just came over me. What if... what if VMP's "swaption only" surprise this month will be a bunch of AP records, including Pet Sounds? What if I waited one more day and I could've grabbed it for $23?
I have instant regrets.
Looks like I missed the code. It didn't work today, but maybe it's because I'm on Pacific time and it already expired

I'm excited to see what the Swaptions might be because I know I'll be swapping out S&P. That said, I can't get hyped about it with the one chance to lock in a pick. I say this because if I feel FOMO'ed into to making a pick today around 5EST because I think it'll disappear quickly, and then something I wanted even more becomes a swaption the next day, I won't be too happy. If they didn't do this annoying "addition of more swaptions after the fact" thing, I'd be down to ride your hype train. Don't get me wrong, I have benefited from them adding more swaptions in the past, but now that I know I'll swap today at 5EST, I feel like it's gonna eff me over.

sure I'll miss whatever the whale is though 
What are the fan favourites to look out for other than crossing my fingers that they have some Woodstock still?

I keep getting confused, is it the White Stripes that's this month's Essentials?
Also, I've never been in a position where I will potentially be swapping out a record that I want anyway. So is there an option to buy the record even though I have swapped it out? I know it will make the store if it doesn't sell out, but that seems like quite the risk with something like the White Stripes. I know I'm wanting to keep all 3 subs this month but if something like an anthology box set does pop up (pleassse be stax or motown!!) it would be crazy not to swap for it!
