Whatcha’ gettin’?

Nevermind... See that this was pushed to July. Had it in my June list. Carry on...

Looking for MTB (Mehldau/Turner/Bernstein) - Consenting Adults... I can only find it on Zia's website for in-store... https://www.ziarecords.com/p/13026697/mtb-mehldau-turner-bernstein-consenting-adults-2-lp-180g-ltd-1-200-rsd-2021-exclusive

It’s ok. Sounds good but definitely not better than my one-steps. The closest comparison would be the Evans Village Vanguard album and it is really no comparison on so many levels. As far as musicianship, well it is not horribly amateur but it is at about the level that I would expect from the...

I would go for Night Beat…Best of is cut from a digital master And sounds a bit flat.

Much better than the shitty beer for $12 inside the venue…

I think it is more likely to be The Who or another Hendrix title (AYE?). I don’t see them ever getting The Beatles and I think Zep is unlikely due to Page and two of the three living principles for Floyd cannot agree enough to get an Animals SACD out, so anything else seems just as unlikely.

It is true. I have 5-6 pressings, including an original Columbia and the AP 33 & 45s. This one sounds the best. It is nearly holographic and the electric bass tone is so clear and punchy. BG definitely did his magic on this one and in my set this was probably the record with the lowest surface...

The Headhunters in this set beats my AP45

Yet the pressing quality and consistency screams VMP...

Received this from VMP today: “Join us on Friday, 5/7 at 2pm PT / 5pm ET on Crowdcast for our capstone AMA (Ask Me Anything) video episode featuring VMP's Classics & Country Director, Andrew Winistorfer and Stephen Anderson, VMP's Music Operations Coordinator! You'll get a behind-the-scenes...

Even better... Kenny G

Fantastic boxset with phenomenal sound with a shitty pressing. Reminds me of the Sigur Ros - In a Frozen Sea set of many years ago. What I would give for a clean pressing of that set...

I have similar issues...all are pressing issues ultimately and all are on GZ. I have no qualms with requesting replacements.

So far I’m really blown away by the sound on these. If I am able to ultimately get clean copies of all of these through replacements then I think this will be one of the best boxset purchases I’ve made in years. If anyone is on the fence about buying this set GET IT NOW while it is still at...

Listening to Future Shock now also. I’m enjoying it much more than I expected And it doesn’t sound nearly as dated as I previously thought.

Crossing over on some of threads I frequent here, but I’m listening to side B of Future Shock in the VMP Herbie Hancock anthology set and it is reminding me of some of the Drums>Space I’ve enjoyed. (Yes, I’m one of those heads that like D>S.)

Agree. I’m 3 records in and these sound great (the mastering). Takin’ Off and Maiden Voyage could give my MMJ 45s a run for the money and I would say Headhunters beats the AP 45. Unfortunately all 3 have a slight edge warp, Takin Off has quite a bit of vinyl surface noise and MV had some...

I believe someone here was asking about the new Rhino cut of George Benson - Breezin’ (maybe @MikeH ). Don’t bother...only GZ coding in the runouts, meaning it is an in-house job. Also, my copy was severely edge-warped and will be headed straight back to Amazon. For the same money you should...

Well, my VMP box just arrived and I had no idea what to with this thing than put in a drawer, so up on the ‘cogs it goes...
