Got notices for LNT and Monk out of those you listed, as well as my ROTMs, Alfredo and TL Barret. Immediately got an email after it shipped that the LNT numbering may be out of 2100 and not 2000. Good thing I don't really care but that would've been nice to get before shipping.Anybody gotten January their shipping notices yet? Theoretically along with my ROTM, I should be getting Khruangbin LNT, Thelonious Monk, All Things Blue, and a couple of the unnumbered overstocks.
I fully expect maybe ONE of these things to actually be included, with the rest being delayed for three or for different reasons.
I see you @Murfocakes , shakin' that assDonna Summer is a great exclusive. I have an original that still sounds awesome here so I have no need to double dip. If you like what you are hearing I really advise Once Upon A Time, the album that preceded it. Side 2 in particular has the most amazing segue of dance tracks.View attachment 83091
So good, do you have Withers at Carnegie Mofi? It's transcendental.

Only 30 copies left of Donna Summer’s Bad Girls!!!
This is such a great exclusive! Bad Girls was an album very ahead of its time; it was like a fusion of electronic, disco, new-wave and pop-rock! The bold piano synths, robotic throbbing drum breaks, the light-speed pulsating trippy machine rhythms are all so futuristic and irresistible! 🕹
If you guys love the sound of Kraftwerk’s computerised, sequenced, techno music, yet love that beach, funky, summer vibes-disco GTA Vice music, then this album is PERFECT for you!
I’m so happy this exclusive will be an AAA pressing, using the original master tapes and will be mastered by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound!
And Donna Summer is now sold out. I am... a little surprised about how quickly that went.
Now that I think about it, it’s probably so true!Comping you your lifetime membership to hyperbolically shill and promote FOMO all over the N&G forums and Reddit is probably some of the best marketing money VMP has ever invested.
So I checked in on my December order (still in USPS limbo) and still got the party line about USPS stinks right now give us more time. When I checked in December, they told me to check back on 1/4 and they would make it right. It's now 1/12 and still nothing but a "give us to the end of the week" before we will try to help you.
Not pleased right now. I could have walked to their NC facility and back in this time.
Mine has been in limbo in DC for 3 weeks, so at least it is the right direction.For what it's worth, I have a few other albums in limbo almost as long that are not updating in the system and can almost guarantee you can't be replaced if they are lost . VMP will eventually make it right.
Edit: One from Bullmoose in Maine that was in San Francisco and then last scanned in Los Angeles on the 8th. Im in Eastern VA.
hahahah. I really think a majority of the issues with the USPS stem from them sending packages clear across the country in the wrong direction. It happens way too often.
