Dammit. Just cracked opened my Dean & Britta album and received two copies of the second C/D disc. Missing the first disc side A/B. Looks like there are more copies still out there gonna have to try again on this one.

Saw this was an issue on Discogs, but I was lucky and got both records correctly

I'm still waiting on my final of the 3 Sun Ra releases for similar reason. My seller had a customer complain about theirs having two of one of the discs and opened mine to find the same problem (with the same discs, so no switcharoo!) Currently waiting on a replacement copy to arrive there before they can ship it here.

Anybody grab that Team Sleep? How's it sound vs the original CD? On the fence

Don't think anyone got back to you about this. It sounds pretty close to the CD. It's not better, and it's got a little background crackle despite two ultrasonic cleanings. Nothing bad and you can't hear it when it's turned up, but there's some there in the transitions. About what I expect from a release of this kind that isn't done by a label that focuses on quality. Happy to have it, but doesn't blow me away by any stretch.
 
my opinion on the team sleep the vinyl sounds better than the FLAC CD rip i've been listening to for many yrs. how much better i wouldn't be able to tell you.the vinyl has a little bit of noise but nothing too distracting i've only "cleaned" with a anti-stat brush.i'm glad to finally own this and on my setup to my ears i like the mastering of the vinyl.

I ordered a few RSD titles online and used PayPal at checkout. For some reason, PayPal used my old shipping address so I’m hoping the USPS can reroute the package to me. Otherwise, I hope who ever lives in my old place enjoys the records.

I'm a mail carrier. Call your post office and let them know. They can make sure it goes to you.

Restock. 10 copies at the moment.
 
Unfortunately have to report that I'm pretty disappointed with the Tinted Windows release. Was really hoping for it to be a sonic revelation from all the brickwall of the 00's, but this is most definitely just George Marino's (no knock, he is one of the all time legends!) master from '09 with some EQ to help aid it, and a substantial top end rolloff to fit the format. They definitely only had the original artwork for CD, too. It's pretty fuzzy sized up for an LP. Oh well. That's the problem with a lot of the late 90's-00's albums coming to vinyl for the first time - it was never a consideration, so you're just working from the files for CD release.

I will say, Precision knocked it out of the park in terms of pressing quality - flat, centered, and dead quiet. I have a few releases from them now where I'm very impressed for the majority of their releases being GZ DMMs.
