Any opinion on 80's european OJC/Riverside pressings of this one ? They should be AAA and worth 20€ shipping included, which would make them more interesting for an european guy like myself ?

So. Tenet. Huge disappointment. It's a bit bloated and pompous, but mainly, the high concept was supposed to transpose with great visual, and... meh. Nothing interesting, the third act is almost as interesting as a live play of Call of Duty.

I lol'd so hard at the though that Christian Bale has range. He can physically transform and is not a bad actor, but I would not say he has a huge range, nor is a risk taker. Gaining or losing weight / muscle is not having range as an actor. Directors love him for playing driven characters and...

Meanwhile they haven't answered my email from early August, nor my Paypal disputes. Clearly, something is not working somewhere.

Nope, standard Amazon preorder, shipping killed it for the limited versions from her website.

Received mine (standard black) yesterday, but haven't got the time to spin it yet !

Missing records, It's been 14 days since my email to CS to get some information. Last December 4 separates disputes went unanswered by VMP following my emails unanswered for weeks. I finally did receive some of the records I opened the dispute for, but after the dispute was closed by Paypal.

So yeah, I've filed Paypal disputes with VMP... again. If they go like the previous one, VMP won't answer any of it.

Yeah, just put an order for a NM 1983 CBS japanese KoB for 30€, shipping included. Maybe not my last order there in the next few months. Moanin' was 50€ shipping included, so pretty much audiophile prices right now, but with an added flavor.

I've received my first japanese pressing of a jazz record. A 1983 Blue Note Masterpiece Special Replica of Art Blakey's Moanin'. Phew. Wow. Floored. It is as as good as expected, and more.

"Other factors" = our accountant is pushing back on pressing 5000 that we would sell 450$ while we sold 7 Dead Anthologies.

Maybe a band from this list ? Really curious about the first one : 17 Ohio bands you need to know about

Pasteis de nata ? Man I know it's touristy as fuck, but the best I had were still from Belem from "the original bakery". I just gain a pound just thinking about it.

Pretty sure I tasted Quinta Nova last time in a restaurant and it was nice.

The best way to find a great asian restaurant in Paris is to have a look at the clientele, if there is loads of asian people in there, you can go in blind.

I'll note this one for my next trip to Portugal. Last time I came home with a box of Ramos Pinto's Duas Quintas 2016 that are really nice as well.

I'm still waiting on them to either get me my last overpayed records and/or answer a CS email.

I'm very partial to Lalande de Pomerol myself, Chateau La Pirouette in particular.

I cheat because I know Skalap will agree, but try some portuguese wine too, Douro valley wines are often great. A staple is Papa Figos, maybe not the absolute best, but a great entry point for Douro wines.

Duck confit and coq au vin are not really Lyon's specialties. Duck confit is more south-west with the wine Skalap prefers, like a Madiran. I think Coq au vin is more Burgundy's thing.
