I might be testing this theory. While I was expecting the Acoustic Sounds delivery today -- which, while many records are enclosed, they should have shipped in one (albeit heavy) simple box; however, 9 other records arrived instead...
in 7 different mailers.
The Acoustic Sounds is delayed due to weather and is expected tomorrow.
Tomorrow should be interesting.
but also, records! (today: VMP Frederick Knight, Loretta Holloway Cry to Me, Arlo Parks, Kiwanuka Love and Hate, Eje Thelin at the German Jazz Fesitval, KG John Prine, Staves Good Woman, and Little Joe Cook and the Thrillers! (which is my personal slice of joy)

I'm not sure if Tower ships to Canada, but US $33.60 is a pretty good price. https://towerrecords.com/search?q=speakers+corner&type=product&gf_285147=Patti Smith -- edit: they have 1 in stock

I ordered it from Sonic for C$46, which is not superb but the best I could find of late.

The AP stereo definitely sounds better than the AP mono. Like others have said, the mono is how it was intended but can’t take away from the fact that the stereo remix sounds much more clear. If you love the album, you need both though. I do only have the 33 rpms but they are both fantastic.

Stop trying to spend my money!!!! Looks like Tower just sold out. Will keep them in mind, not sure on their shipping costs. I am trying to avoid Sonic Boom because you need to hit $175 for free shipping. I might do a Speakers Corner blitz in March at SB

I know... that's why I have a big haul of SC and AP's...
It all started with the NM copy of Strange Days, but everything else was on my list anyway.They don't have a cheaper deal for GTA people?

Free next day shipping in the GTA but sadly I am just outside the GTA hot zone. Which probably is a good thing since I am trying to vinyl diet (just a little bit)I know... that's why I have a big haul of SC and AP's...

Like cutting the carbs but keeping the fat? I think Patti Smith SC counts as fat.

Thankfully it looks like you bought the last copy at Sonic Boom. I was just taking a peak, I swear I wasn't going to buy it.

There was at least one left after I bought it, but it was the weekend before last so plenty of time for someone to feast on it....

Just put on the 2LP Rumours, sounds amazing. Wish more classic LPs were made at this level!

I've now moved on to the SC Transformer. This evening's listening brought to you by this thread.
I wish more classic rock albums had been recorded this well to begin with. But like the ones u r spinning there are some really good ones.

What does jpc.de ‘s shipping to CA cost? Their prices to ship to the US were extremely fair and I ordered 3 SC pressings (including Patti Smith) for less than I’d pay in any US shops.
