    The Blue Note Thread

    100% agree with this sentiment, I hate the thought that my $ is going into his pockets. Unfortunately, North of the border, especially during COVID, there are no other options for online vinyl other than the beast that is Amazon.ca. It makes all the more difficult when the price points they’re...

    Not sure if this has been mentioned here, but for my fellow Canadians Joel Ross - Who Are You? is finally up for pre-sale on Amazon.ca (for only $29 Canadian dollars...that’s a steal these days).

    Vinyl Me Please Classics

    Earl Hooker died in ‘70...maybe the “1970” clue refers to the date of death vs release date? Earl Hooker has 10 letters in his name, no idea how to make the other clues fit though.

    New Music Friday!

    100% worth your new time. The new album (All Mirrors) is her strongest work in my view - extremely cohesive and the use of string arrangements on some tracks really rounds things out well. This latest effort is definitely going to be way up there on AOTY lists. Not to diminish her back...

    Vinyl Me Please Classics

    Great call, that Darrell Banks album is 🔥 and is consistently underrated in all of the “top ## classics picks” threads over the past two years.

    Albums That Need to Be Pressed / Repressed on Vinyl

    All of the BN Ambrose Akinmusire albums either need repressing or first time pressing (depending on the album). That you can’t get his releases on vinyl is insane.

    I have the RSD mono version and IMHO it sounds fantastic. Haven’t compared to the MOFI version, but you’re likely safe with either.

    Vinyl Me Please Classics

    I was in the same boat - came back to VMP because of Freedom Rider and happened to find this forum at the same time so win-win! Still on the fence about VMP though, I went for the three months and will decide where to go afterwards (they always put out the best releases right before I pull the...

    Fresh Grabs

    Picked up this awesome Blue Note comp today. I don’t usually go for comps, but after seeing the list of songs and finding out that it’s out print I had to jump on it. Pristine copy too.

    Online Vinyl Deals

    Not sure whether this has been mentioned here, but for the Canadians in the forum there’s a half-speed master Tragically Hip - Day for Night on Amazon.ca for $24 instead of $40. It’s on pre-sale now, not sure how long the sale will last...

    Albums That Need to Be Pressed / Repressed on Vinyl

    Endless Planets by Austin Peralta - from what I can find this has never been pressed to vinyl and definitely deserves a solid vinyl release.

    Welcome - Introduce Yourself Here

    Hey folks, long time follower, first time poster. I was a huge fan of this community back when it was under the VMP site and was devastated when they decided to take it down and lost a significant avenue for music discovery. I only recently discovered that the members of the community are still...
