This ones on my next JPC order. I have the pure pleasure of I Can’t Stand The Rain and it’s awesome but I think this title is even better

Think this is somehow (stupidly) because of COVID since I have ordered a couple of the Dylan box sets from them in the past

I own the VMP Fat Possum pressing of this and while not amazing it’s also not terrible. That being said, I own one of the recent reissues of Transformer and just ordered the SC of that so it’s not out of the realm of possibility. Thanks for the suggestion.
I think they may have used that as an excuse if I remember correctly, which is ridiculous, especially since shipping to the US is apparently fine. I ended up getting Horses and Herbie Hancock - Flood from a Discogs seller in Europe since the JPC order didn’t work out.
If I remember correctly, they don't ship to Canada due to some strange COVID thing with DHL. I emailed them a while back about it I'm pretty sure. It's supposed to change but I just looked and Canada isn't even a shipping option although apparently they deliver to North Korea.

Kim Jong Un...huge audiophile.
Have you seen his train? He might be... Shit is like Showpiercer. There's probably an audiophile car on that thing.

Local shop has the 140 for $10 less than the 180. Gonna take a swing at that. Keep you and anyone else interested posted!

Yes. Excellent. Pressing and sound top notch.

I ordered the last three SC's I got from Kaleidoscope-Music on Discogs (out of Germany) and it came out to CDN$50 each record shipped after factoring the exchange. It worked out well in the end. The records were packaged superbly too.
That was my order with Janis Joplin, From Elvis in Memphis and Elvin Jones. They seem to have a decent amount of SC's. Worth a look depending of what you guys are willing to pay.
EDIT: I just looked at their inventory and there are much fewer SC's compared to when I ordered... I swear it wasn't me depleting the stocks! Probably a good place to keep an eye on anyway as I'm sure they'll replenish.

Outstanding re-issue. Very definitely definitive.

Yeah I remember seeing her in the record stores in the 80s all over the place too, but not once have I listened.

Nick does not really care about fancy colours usually so there is just the regular pressings. That said Mute has always done a good job on his records. The European 2014 pressing of Boatman’s Call is a good place to start

Agreed, and that newer Idiot Prayer is fantastic at a fairly reasonable price.Nick does not really care about fancy colours usually so there is just the regular pressings. That said Mute has always done a good job on his records. The European 2014 pressing of Boatman’s Call is a good place to start

I couldn't get into the studio albums back around the time when VMP did that boatman's call exclusive. I just thought ,oh, this isn't for me. Fast forward a few years later and a coworker who's a mad audiophile invited me over and played me Live at KCRW and it blew my mind. We even did an A/B with the CD and the LP is next level. Mastering on this is fantastic:

I still don't have any of his other albums nor did I really get into them but I love this one and picked it up.
