I always thought it was cool how "Music is My Radar" was written as a tribute to Tony Allen and then Damon later got to work with him pretty extensively in the latter half of Allen's career.

Yeah, and you can still find tons of online articles from music publications about the song being released and they link you to where you can "download the song" but you end up just being directed to the modern day Blur site. It's interesting to see a snapshot of stuff from almost a decade ago I suppose but I want that download damn it!

I think I still have it...
...oh wait I just have the mp3, I obviously didn’t care as much about sound quality back in 2010!

Yeah I think I downloaded the MP3 from a totally legal and legitimate website several years ago, but the idea of a WAV out there in the ether keeps me up at night

I've gotta say....the half-speed remaster of Sticky Fingers is pretty bad IMO...maybe the album was just not recorded well but I was expecting the half-speed to sound better. It's just kinda....dull.
Gotta say the only good stones half speed master is the exile one from a few years ago that comes with the fauxbi and certificate thingy. That’s really good, if a bit too hot. The OG Goats Head Soup that I got for not much money earlier in the year blows all the new ones I have out of the water.

I certainly wouldn't say it is an audiophile recording, but I wouldn't describe my orignalish copy as dull, so if I were you, I'd try to find a good deal on eBay eventually.

That is disappointing to hear. I just ordered a copy in hopes of an upgrade over my 2010 reissue. I held off on the 2015 half-speed because I heard it wasn’t worth the upgrade I guess it was wishful thinking to assume this one would be better. I probably just need to bite the bullet and try to find a VG+ copy of the OG. Bummer.

I own an OG of this and I've always been shocked at how much it goes for. I don't ever really spin it, I love pretty much all of their albums (Leisure is aight) and I have the MIMR single. I also have Fool's Gold, so underrated. I agree with @Joe Mac -- not enough Modern Life on there. It's my favorite too.

For anyone who wants to chase down a "best pressing"
Hard to say what will come up now, but because of how many similar issues of the stones albums there were in the 70s, it was pretty easy for me to find a good deal eBay a few years ago. It is trickier for some people to tell if it is a first pressing or not.
Look at the bottom text on the ATCO label. Bold text 1841 B'way is supposed to be the best. If the address is 75 Rockefeller, it is after '74. Non-bold 1841 Broadway spelled out is in between. Got mine for $20 or under when really flashy listings of the 75 Rockefeller were selling for much more. Probably a little pricier now.
I did a quick search and saw a good one that even stated first pressing that sold a couple weeks ago for $32, but plenty of 75 Rockefellers that sold for more.
If you don't care, just don't mind me.

How fast did the yellow version of Gleam 3 sell out? Guessing immediately? Has anyone tried a vmp link trick for one?

It was gone quick. B&N still has blue though. The link didn't work but if you search the site it pulls up

What do you mean it pulls up?
I don't trust B&N shipping. Have never had luck with them

The direct link in the thread didn't work for me but I was able to locate their version by searching for it.
I'm sure if you check back when it's released, you can grab a copy in a local store or have it shipped to store
