Thanks for the heads up, I decided to finally pick it up. I couldn’t get myself to pay full price but I just got the refund credits from the Mars Volta pressing issue.

According to Reddit it sounds like today’s drop is at 2pm EST

Sorry if this was already covered, do we know if the Mars Volta uses the same master as the lates reissue from Clouds Hill?

Thanks for that, I checked it out yesterday but it was gone by the time I was able to take a look. I was able to find a copy of the record at a record shop in a nearby town.

Does anyone happen to have a lead on the Chicago The Blues Today set, preferably a Canadian source?

Is the Sons of Kemet album cut by RKS? Discogs doesn’t have the runout info on the black version, but the orange variant looks to be RKS Sterling.

I know you were joking but that pricing is pretty close to what they cost in the store linked in the tweet: De-Loused 2LP is $62 and Frances 3LP is $65. I was hoping these would be available individually but the pricing is pretty nuts.

Heh same here, just got a shipping notification for Curtis only. As I was writing this, got another shipping no for Sturgill as well, so i expect the notifications may just be delayed. Either way though, this is one of the quickest shipping notifications for me.

That’s a fair point. Hopefully this won’t have an impact on duties/taxes on the shipment.

It’s a great recording and mastering. The problem is the usual GZ roulette, where some copies are great, others not so much. I lucked in this particular case, but other GZ releases sometimes take a couple replacements to get a good copy.

Pricing at my local shop for Lazer Guided Melodies was $37CAD, which after taxes works out to about the same as VMP. My local has no problem selling out of them so I didn’t feel too bad about not supporting them. Question for other Canadian subscribers. My shipments are usually handled by...

My account page shows that May swaps open tomorrow 5PM EST, June swaps open May 26 same time

Good call, that seems to be the case. Davis/Coltrane and Saba are both mid May.

Yep, Lazer Guided Melodies shipped out today on its own, though the two records from the 100th restock haven’t like some others have reported.

They do: Coming in May May Records of the Month will become active (and swappable) Tomorrow at 12pm EDT.
