I got the classics version from Amazon for $35 Canadian which is about $26US apparently. I think it sounds great. I’ve only compared it to the BN75 series release and I much prefer the classics. I thought the BN75 series was supposed to be mastered by BG but mine had the dreaded mastered by capital in the deadwax.

Do you guys know which version you had of Grace? There was one pressed at RTI - and one pressed at Record Industry.
I have the Record Industry and don't remember having issues with it, but it's been a while.

Just pulled mine out, surprised to see it's the RTI press but still has the noise problems mentioned earlier
I'll try to spin it soon, maybe it's not as bad as I remember?

Hey @TenderLovingKiller® you’re cars comparison wasn’t far off. I.e. the kpg remaster moves it more to that sound than you know protopunk/punk. It is very nice though.

That kinda scares me. Hopefully mine gets here eventually. Messed up that it takes longer to get a record from CA to WA than from CA to NC.

It’s not bad by any means. And to be honest while the VMP Sabbath leaves me wanting, this does not. Everything else is so much bigger and better it
Makes up for it.

I really enjoyed the Rhino Marquee Moon and think it’s an excellent job from KPG. I think Fremer’s point isn’t a great one as this is an album I’ve known since college and this was the best listen I’ve ever had of it.

This may have been mentioned in another thread, but the upcoming Adrianne Lenker album is AAA.

Eager to stream this one. Might pick up the LP. Loved her last solo record.
Hope the pressing is decent. I feel like every Big Thief record I own is poorly pressed, noisy, or off center.

I’ve had good luck with her solo albums which all have sounded great.

Agreed, the two solo albums of hers I have sound great. My Big Thief records are okay, a little noisy is the extent of my problems with them.

You're right. Her last solo record sounds great. Maybe it's just a Big Thief issue.

I thought the Buck Meek and Buck/Adrianne stuff I have sounds great too. I’ve mostly lucked out with Big Thief records too but think I had one that was pressed poorly

I am terribly curious what a "contact for price" record actually costs.

Just got the shipping notification for my Warner Canada order with the Rhino Hi-Fidelity records. And simultaneously got tracking info that it's out on the vehicle for delivery. I guess I'll get these sooner than expected.

Copper plated in gold is $800
Copper plated in silver is 450
According to links @Twentytwo posted in the preorder thread
So the gold one is probably:
