Pre-Order Thread

Would love to know the mastering on the MC5s. My copies could definitely be improved.

The Chris Bellman Rhino of Kick Out The Jams is pretty decent, considering the source material is quite rough (and that I have a Rainbo version, which is not the case for the most recent reissues). Uncensored too. I don't know if they're always using the same cut, but I believe the recent Rhino's of this were Chris Bellman too. Is that what you have? I don't know how much more they can get out of this source material other than maybe it going through a better pressing plant.

Mine are all older than that. Random beaters from digging.

With Rhino you never know but they also like to re-use plates when possible. I have the 2018 coloured boxset. Sounds good but not earth shattering. Kick Out The Jams is a Bellman cut, but not the other 2

So Rhino has those Talking Heads LPs for preorder. I assume it’s the same cut, would they release a black and color version at the same time? I don’t remember that happening with Rocktober titles

Also for preorder here at somewhat discounted prices (I think this sale ends tomorrow).

Not sure. Wonder if there’s a mixup. Does Rhino have them for preorder or preorder at a shop somewhere?

Back in the USA, especially, is never going to sound great. I think I have a Sundazed version that's fine. I should finally pick up High Time...

I know I'm moving soon but I don't know when. Best way to pre-order stuff?
Don’t pre-order. Take a record Buying break. Most of the stuff you would pre-order will be around once you get settled and even if it’s not you can just move on to the next thing.

If you absolutely have to, you could always order through your local record store and go pick them up directly once your settled.
 

Mail forwarding service always worked for me. Or just contact the label directly to update address when you know.

All great ideas. Thanks everyone
