That’s alright! Mistakes happen, but the good thing is that all those five records you received, looked to be in marvellous shape! So you know that Real World probably take good care of all their stockYes...
Needles & Grooves AoTM /// Vol. 6 - December 2019 /// The Gloaming - 3 [2019]
- Thread starter Joe Mac
- Start date
Maybe they’ll sort you out seeing as it’s direct from the label rather than a shop
Maybe
At least packaging was great and records are undamaged. Things could have been worst!
Who knew The Gloaming was following in Nicole's foot steps by offering wildly different looking variants???
Lol.
SMH. I'm so sorry, @Skalap . But it is comical how often it has happened to our AOTM attempts.
With my hand firmly gripping the largest tree I can find, I’ve never had this happen to me, it’s really weird!
It's my first time and, of course, it had to happen with a bundle of 4 records!
Murphy’s law! At least it didn’t happen with any of the the j-jazz ships...

I got some mail today.
The cover is a little beat up in some spots, but not enough for it to bother me. This is my first time listening to this album, I listened to 1 and 2 already but I bought this one without previewing it because I liked them so much. I figured I'd let my first listen be on vinyl. Loving it so far, Irish is such a cool sounding language. Also, I love the cover art on all three albums. I love how diverse all the AoTM choices have been, I've been discovering that I like things I never would have thought of.

Oh and I ordered mine through importcds on Amazon ($21.something after tax)... it shipped direct from Alliance (distro) in Shepardville, KY. Slight ding in corner.

I'm really late to the party here... I've never heard of The Gloaming. I know Doveman, but I don't know any of the other players. I'm really excited to give this a listen. Thanks, Joe Mac and the rest of you guys and gals for broadening my horizons.
Is it bad form to listen to spotify before the LP shows up?

it was not listed in the "listening notes" by @Joe Mac , nonetheless Lankum fits perfectly into this conversation as it represent a new generation of modern interpreters of the Irish Traditional Music canon.
I just ordered and received their last album The Livelong Day and I wanted to let you all know that it is impressive and majestic.
the sound landscapes it paints are grandiose and the volume of their sound reminds me of the Sigur Ros of Heima and Hvarf/Heim (with their music roots well planted in the celtic world)
I strongly recommend to add this album to your list of albums to check out.

Back to my Portico Quartetgate! It happens that Real World CS is absolutely great! They first asked me to ship the records back to them, paying for shipment and even giving a little something for my time. I offered instead to keep the records if we could find an arrangement. We did, so I ended paying a bit more to keep Portico Quartet records and, on their side, they are shipping Gloaming records. Great CS!
