A former member sent this to me. It’s a weird tourist brochure to New Orleans that came with a compilation of New Orleans music. Galactic, Tank & the Bangas, and Christian Scott Atunde Adjuah are included, of course...

Do December's VMP RotMs count? They haven't exactly been collecting dust, but...
I've got other sealed records, but should probably listen to these promptly in case there are seam splits, warps, no-fill, etc.

No Buy 2021 Record #3:
Billie Holiday - Lady Sings the Blues
(VMP Essentials December 2020 RotM)
Sealed since it arrived December 30th. Also, I think this is the last record I paid for, as it was an add-on.
Music is great. Only Billie I have on vinyl, although I have a couple CDs. I defiantly need to give this a proper cleaning, it pops so much it sounds like a needle drop.

Sealed Record #3
I had a copy of this so why did I buy this one anyways? On yeah, it was a “deal”, haha. Probably my most played album of all time but I never count it because it’s a greatest hits.
Patsy Cline - 12 Greatest Hits

No Buy 2021 - Record #4:
Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers- Just Coolin’
(VMP Exclusive)
Recorded March 8, 1959!
Ordered March 20, 2020!
Arrived November 2020!
Sealed until today!
This is an unbelievable session from The Jazz Messengers. How the hell did the tapes sit on a shelf at Blue Note for 60 years! At least that part makes me feel like less of a procrastinator.

No Buy 2021 - Record #5
Idris Muhammad- Black Rhythm Revolution!
(VMP x Jazz Dispensary)
Sealed since it arrived Dec. 30. Until today!
Not sure if it’s worth $45, but a fantastic Swap. IMO, better than most Classics from last year. Super funky and a drumming showcase for Muhammad.
And in typical VMP fashion showed up with a bent corner. I get as many seam splits and banged up jackets as @Mather gets warps.

I actually had a seam split on mine, which I almost never get. Sounds nice though.
