Tribe landed today which is also the day my year and a half year old discovered the volume switch, I think she likes it seeing as she keeps turning it UP!! Only played the first side and so far, no complaints!

It’s Wool…
1st lp quiet and clean. No warp.
2nd lp same except there’s a teeny tiny warp. Both were cleaned prior to listening.
I’m a little surprised that this is still available, but it looks like most of this years ROTM are still available.
Anyway, VMP did a solid job on this. I’ll probably do an A/B with my other pressing.

I've got the GZ crackle on the lead in to Side A of LET.
GZ are so freaking incompetent. Get a replacement, mine has none of that on A.

Only if they can guarantee a non-shit copy. I swear that's the bar that I compare all GZ issues to.

Lee Morgan's Take 12 is also in swaps again. Not sure how long that one will last.

I got a copy and a replacement last month and Side 2 Disk 1 skips like a mother.
Seems like a missed opportunity now

Justice could be an interesting one. VMP just released the details and it looks like a new pressing

45 RPM (the normal pressing is 33 RPM) with the only track list differential is D.A.N.C.E. is moved to Side A of DIsc One. The 33 RPM is pretty huge sounding as is, so while I'd think generally a 45 RPM is going to play out better all other things being equal, it's a tough bar to meet. I'll be keeping an eye on reviews for sure.

The 15th-anniversary edition of Justice’s 2007 debut album, '†,' is the VMP Essentials Record of the Month for June 2022. It's here on exclusive 2LP Gold Nugget vinyl, with lacquers cut at 45 RPM by Graeme Durham at The Exchange.

Interesting. I'm considering upgrading, but not sure it's worth it. My other one sounds real good.Justice could be an interesting one. VMP just released the details and it looks like a new pressing

Mine sounds good enough for me. But for those that don't have this album, it's great album in the genre.

They did Veckatimest as a 45rpm and did not improve it at all.

They also did David Gray's White Ladder at 45RPM and it is amazing. I'm no VMP apologist (and no longer a member) but sometimes they get it right.

Finally listened to ATCQ tonight and it sounds amazing, this is a top tier VMP Essential pressing.
Definitely disagree with this take. Veckatimest is a clear improvement over the standard.
