That's one of the Luaka Bop releases right? They have some awesome comps. I love the Tim Maia one (which I think is same series as the one you posted) and then the William Onyeabor - Who Is William Onyeabor? comp. The Brazil Classics box set is also real nice and I loved the gospel comp they did a little while ago. I'm a huge fan of the label.
This is the bane of my life. There are so many records that can be bought for next to nothing in the US but cost a fortune when they pop up here in the UK.
Yup it is, World Psychedelic Classics Volume 3. I don't have any others although I do have a couple of African Scream Contest albums from Analog Africa which are also fantastic.
I have the 2 LP MOV and have been trying to get the danged Mofi box for a while but I finally just gave up and grabbed the RKS @ Sterling RTI RSD Mono pressing today. Depending on how it is I might just stick with that one for the time being...KoB update:
Found a UK dealer that had it for £64 and just went for it. Once the UHQR is out I'll decide whether I want to upgrade further.

They seem to repress that MoFi box at least once a year. There are 20,000+ copies so somebody has to have them! It's always insane to me how much people flip MoFi albums that are still in print for price-wise.
Same thing with Japanese records. I wanted to get the Studio Ghibli soundtracks, that cost like £30 in Japan, but £55-70 in the UK
Yea--That's why I was confused at first but eventually realized what ya meant! I might pick up the Bartz though--I only recently realized that they did it in that series and it was AAA.
Yea. Makes sense, but I even see people in the US trying to buy stuff that isn't OOP for crazy amounts. Even on places like the Hoffman classifieds where I think people would have a better idea of what is OOP and what will have a repress. I'm still a bit surprised MoFi and AP don't have european distribution centers. I bet they would have no trouble making their money back to make that worthwhile.
I mean, if it affects play I'd say something. Don't worry about whether you said something before. It's on them not you.
I used to, but I just expect it now. My clamp takes care of most of them so they play flat, which is really all I care about. Quite frankly the thing that's annoying me more these days is that even on the lowest setting I've had several warped new presses melt in my Furutech flattener. And there's no way that should be happening on 180 gram new vinyl. So some plants must be doing something with their formulas that's causing the issue since it's never been a problem in the past. So now I'm getting gun shy to flatten anything valuable and that's exactly why I bought this in the first place.
