    Vinyl Me Pauly (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    Ah, good catch. They don't include the runout codes in that listing, but it does identify it as GZ Media, and the back cover image included does have "MADE IN CZECH REPUBLIC" printed on back cover, in addition to the "Small sticker on back cover bottom right, on top of cellophane wrap says Made...

    Vinyl Me Pauly (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    I just received Charles Bradley Victim of Love from Amazon USA, and the runout markings are very sparse. Nothing etched, just a single machine-stamped code on each side: Side One = 236765E1/A Side One = 236765E2/A I searched Discogs for the first 6 digits of the above, under the Master...

    Vinyl Me Pauly (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    These US$37 ($42 for non-members) "VMP 10 Celebration" titles are prompting me to buy non-VMP editions. Last week, I paid $19.69 (after yearend20 promo code, as part of a larger order) for Japandroids direct from PolyVinyl. It's $23 regular-price, and free US shipping if you can nudge your...

    Joyful Noise VIPS / JNR-100

    Well, I finally got the Counterfeit Madison - Palms Were A Bad Choice/Counterfeit Covers Sade White Label LP near the end of October. It's fantastic. And, last month I finally got the "call up" for JNR100, so I've retired my VIP status in favor of JNR100. I'm looking forward to the wild ride...

    That AV stand is really cool. How'd you DIY the metal cage and frame parts? I'm so not handy in that way, so I'm fascinated when people build their own furniture. etc. Reminds me of the "bar shelf" that we got from Cost Plus World Market ... It just barely holds the Infinity center channel...

    Joyful Noise VIPS / JNR-100

    I'm still waiting on Counterfeit Madison - Palms Were A Bad Choice/Counterfeit Covers Sade . I think somewhere (on Facebook perhaps) they said that vinyl production backlogs were to blame. My guess (thinking from their perspective) is that they're prioritizing production of newer releases so...

    Vinyl Me Pauly (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    Seems like a plausible theory. Growing pains are tough. I hope they can keep the wheels on through their factory construction and can settle on a price point for subscriptions that is sustainable, especially once they have more control over their supply chain.

    I got a renew credit offer email too, just this morning!

    Yeah, that somehow a narrow slice of subscribers (those whose subscription expired in July?) get the preferential coaxing to rejoin, while the rest of us who keep their business running the rest of the year only get offered to pay full-price, is annoying.

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    A 12-LP anthology of Firesign Theater, remastered by Ryan Smith?!? 🔥 😂

    Joyful Noise VIPS / JNR-100

    I sense that they've been struggling since Jonathan Horne passed away and left a customer service void at JNR. They seem to be earnestly trying to regroup but grief is not as mundane as a switch to be flipped. A year and a half isn't so long for a beloved friend to be absent. Jonathan Lee...

    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    They gave us weapons, yet they didn't expect us to rise up and fight?!?

    I think it's the red book that guy is holding in the photo. (Sorry; couldn't resist.) I don't know any special places to go on internet that you probably haven't already tried, but I wonder if you have a good relationship with any local electronics repair shops around you ... particularly ones...

    Joyful Noise VIPS / JNR-100

    Yes, it says it will be automatically sent to Early Bird VIPs: "Satanic Slumber Party is being released digital-only on Monday, but we WILL be giving this album the VIP Edition treatment (with vinyl pre-orders opening in a few weeks). And yes, this release WILL be included in Early Bird...

    Joyful Noise VIPS / JNR-100

    I'm pretty sure I signed up for White Label Series for 2022, as an add-on to my 2022 VIP Early Bird subscription. So I don't think they're skipping 2022. In addition, I thought I saw a JNR post on Facebook hinting that there would be an Artist-In-Residence for 2022.

    Portland / Oregon

    Well, traditionally the role of police used to be for keeping the minorities in line, but now is a confusing time for the police. I think they're struggling to find themselves right now in this new world. (And many are leaving the force when faced with the prospect of evolving from their...

    Where are you all seeing that grandfathered pricing? I'm visiting Account on my laptop browser, and on the left side under "Membership Basics" it just says: Followed by: Please tell me I'm looking in the wrong place for indication of my grandfathered discount for 2021 (I got it last year for...

    Amazon Record Club - Golden Era of Vinyl

    I stayed subscribed, but the item they selected for me was Creedence Clearwater Revival Chronicles compilation. I already have the Analogue Productions SACD box set of CCR's entire studio albums catalog, so I didn't see the advantage of getting Chronicles on LP. Plus I think someone on a...

    Amazon Record Club - Golden Era of Vinyl

    In addition to those, I've also seen reports of others getting Aretha Franklin Amazing Grace 2xLP and The Who Sell Out 2021 edition 2xLP. The only single LP I'm aware of so far is Black Sabbath Master of Reality, which I was going to get until I canceled and resubscribed, as you said you've...
