I mean does anybody actually want them to continue the Facebook group?

No but VMP did imply that the FB group would continue on a bit longer with content. This was in the early days before any thing was released.
That said, all this new FB group will be is Fresh Grab and Now Spinning posts, and I get enough of those here.

When are the corrections to everything supposed to be mailed? Has anyone heard/gotten anything yet?

Heard nothing here. My guess is we wont hear anything until they start shipping. I just worry about all those different buckets (Dexter cover, Shorter vinyl, booklet for some) making this into much more complicated process than it really needs to be.

That's the VMP business model. 1+ .25 -12 + 5 -.12 + 8 - .13 = 2 (give or take a few with rounding)

It wouldn’t surprise me if these get delayed.

Just in Discogs. One person is selling a couple of the sets and they are using the podcast as a selling feature
"Anthology #495; complete set, box is still in shrink, and records are still sealed. Comes with listening notes and exclusive podcasts with Don Was (emailed after purchase)"

Anyone saw Storf's post on IG? He is recording the podcast for Anthology #2
I zoomed in to his computer screen see if I could find some hint as to what artist/label/genre it will be, and I was surprised to find that the file's title is "What's up N+G"
Do you think N+G meas Needles and Grooves? Is this supposed to be a diss to us or something?

I read that as more playful than a diss. It looks to me like the first word on the third line is "Motown."
Yup same for me on both counts...

I really wonder what a Motown Anthology would look like? Kind of hard to whittle down such a vast catalog into a smallish boxset.

Weren't a lot of them released as singles also?
I'm sure he thinks he's funny.

I grew up listening to (and wearing out) this Motown Anthology on 3 cassette tapes: Various - The Motown Story: The First Twenty-Five Years
It would be hard to top that one, in my opinion at least.
Slightly off topic here but I just wanted to apprise everyone on the current progress of the VmP BLurNowte AntHorRgy BoRx.
Up first thanks to @moohoohahaha is Horace S-eamsplit.
Majestic...
Followed by two from @bdm105 , first up Ambrose Akinmusire with When The Warp Emerges Glistening...
Honestly one of the worst warps I've seen on a 180 gram record.
And Bobby Hutcherson Montera-ahhhhh holycrap that's warped!
Thank you both very very much for your contributions to this noble cause...

Well when I asked him awhile back if they would do Temptations or the Supremes for classics, he said "we have something else planned for one of those bands". So almost a certaintly that we'll get an album from one of those (personally really hoping for "Where did our Love go").
I’ll send you my vinyl sticker if you want to permanently cover the faces.
