So The Strokes will be the same kind of deal? Mastered at Sterling Sound, plated at QRP, pressed at GZ?
Is this mastering different from the "orange fire" reissue from earlier this year? I have that one. It was also mastered at Sterling Sound but pressed at RI.
It's pretty good so I doubt I need to get another copy....

The price is too damn high.

So I’ve spent 60 mins with Prine.
”Pretty good” is the Bob Dylanesque highlight and 1 or 2 others, but I will cherry pick others from his discos, and listen on Spoti. Glad I listened tho - that track alone is worth it.

Prine is a great album. Well worth grabbing. So many amazing songs on it, really super stuff. Probably not worth myself delving again with the 2017, though my cover is dinged so there’s always a temptation. I listened to Tough Guys. It’s fine.

Donald & Lydia, Spanish Pipedream, Hello In There, Angel From Montgomery, Sam Stone, Illegal Smile, Paradise. All these tracks are classic Prine and were mainstays of his setlist until the very end.
But I agree, Pretty Good, is a lot of fun. And pretty underrated

I don't drink anymore; but drinking with a group of friends singing "Paradise" is A+ fun.

Think they missed a trick by not having Prine follow Spiritualized, with the Sam Stone ‘hole in daddy’s arm where all the money goes’ line being reused in Cop Shoot Cop

Did you hear Roger Waters version? Some say it is very emotional, I thought it was shit. And I’m a Roger fan.

Another good performance of "Paradise" by John + Kelsey. I have this on 7" signed by the both of them.

I’ve seen John a few times. My parents were/are big fans. There is a photo somewhere of the two of them with Prine and looking very happy. There was a very sad concert a few years ago where he obviously was very unwell and stopped and apologised during a few songs. People were crying in the audience. Then he did a tour a year or two ago, was in much better voice and fettle. He really fought back hard from all his health problems which made his death this year harder to take.

Sorry but I have to do one more "Paradise".

So did VMP answer the most important question about the Prine pressing? I see they now have it described as "Orange Marble", not peach or hay, but why?

Yeah Angel from Montgomery was definitely on my list too !
Also laughed out loud at “in spite of ourselves” after dropping on this. His most listened to track on Spoti as wel haha.

I have the 2017 release, so I don't think I'll be upgrading just yet, but if anyone doesn't want their art print I'd love to throw you a few bucks for it.
