Also last Friday, our coffee pot went all poltergeist on us (it was randomly setting it’s delayed timer and not wanting to brew on demand and generally just beeping incessantly).... so Costco only had a crazy Kuerig, so I ordered this thing of beauty:

I ordered a cheap one on amazon about 2 weeks ago.. Still waiting for it and my unopened coffee grounds getting restless.

A couple of Blueys from Classic Records, a pair of discontinued Speakers Corner reissues (I fell in love with that Stan Getz one last year, it was played beginning to end at the holiday resort we were staying at), and my first Impex (Blakey’s Drum Suite) and an AP Tenor Conclave.

This place in the UK. It was their last copy though, they just have the 2LP AP version left.

I recently saw this listed, a c.1968 RVG stamped version, NM vinyl, VG+ sleeve for £25, the same I paid for the Speakers Corner version which may interest you.

That Pretty Purdie sounds fantastic! It really surprised me.

Is the TNT the coloured one, if so where did you find it? Is ninja tune shipping EU wide again?

TNT is the standard black, I got it from Juno.
(I had asked ThrillJoy Europe desk if it was possible to get the colored version, but it wasn't available outside of the US)

and for NinjaTunes, I got Keleketla! from Amazon.co.uk (but the actual label is Ahead of our Time)

Damn, if that's still around later I might pick that one up. Go for it @Ghost

Never ordered from this site before but seems it’s worth a shot! This is one of my favorite Art Blakey records. I contemplated the AP press many times but I really don’t enjoy 45s lol. Thanks for the link!
 
The best thing about coming back from holiday these days is the pile of records waiting for me.

Khruangbin - Mordechai
John Martyn - Solid Air
Bloto - Erozje
Blow Trio

I really enjoyed the new Khruangbin on streaming it; a replacement to a beat-up first pressing of Solid Air; superb new Polish jazz; and the first record from the Belgian two sax + drums trio who made one of my faves of last year.

Sven Wunder - Eastern Flowers
Aretha Franklin - Aretha Now
Pearl Jam - Backspacer
Tamikrest - Tamotait

Fab album that reminds me of Goat; a replacement for a 4MWB pressing although as it's VMP it's got pops and so a replacement is coming; completion of PJ's studio albums with this underrated one; and fabulous central African guitar music.

20200715_154403.jpg

Led Zeppelin - Complete BBC Sessions
Sister Rosetta Tharpe - Rhythm and Gospel
The Black Crowes - Shake Your Moneymaker
Mammal Hands - Chaser 7"

The big one for me is the Led Zep deluxe boxset which was the only way to get this on vinyl here now. I love this album and don't know why I hesitated over buying it as it cost me a fair bit more. Also - I've loved Sister Rosetta for so long and for my money this is better than the VMP release even if grey market; more Black Crowes goodness; and the first taste of the new album from Mammal Hands, one of my favourites of the UK jazz scene even if rather underrated.

Fiona Apple - Fetch the Bolt Cutters (indie Opaque pearl vinyl)

Puppies on the labels!

Awesome little book with all the lyrics.

Would have loved a gatefold or larger sleeve opening but overall I’m very impressed. Can’t wait to spin it this evening!

Oh my. I'm jelly 👀 love the color with the album cover, but I'm still awaiting my black copy. Don't really feel like ordering a second variant 😕

I got mine from Bullmoose - did Amoeba have their own exclusive or just carrying the indie exclusive?

I just got a shipping notice from Amoeba for something, and I have no idea what it is. Doesn't say in the email, and their site is down. I'm hoping it's not this though because that'd mean I ordered 3 different versions! 4 if you count the cassette. I'm pretty sure it's something else though.
