Vinyl Me Please Anthology

[folsom_lives]

I asked him straight up on the old forum if he was getting it for free and he avoided the question there as well but I think from what I recall after asking him several times he eventually admitted he did.

Well I for one am shocked /sarcasm

Don't quote me on that, I can't recall for certain but I think he phrased it as "We have a partnership...".

Pretty surprised they're re-pressing them. Extremely unsurprised at the language in the "apology." The ol' VMP special.

Just taking a moment to drink in the fact that the album where everybody has to figure out what the real Side A is, is called Schizophrenia. The VMP writers room has been really on the nose this season.

This post caused me to do a genuine in real life LOL. Very good.

I can always claim I'm "shocked" that he was evasive as to his motivations for being an "unpaid" "VMP hype muppet".

Yeah. No use of the word "bummer" or "bro" anywhere...

If you saw my status I just got off from speaking with Matt and Llyod and will be meeting up with Llyod in person so there will quite a bit of additional feedback given. Sorry @Mr Moore I didn't get to your question, there wasn't a natural place to insert it but I will have it down for the in person



While it wasn't life-altering it was decent

You got to talk to THE Lloyd Star?? He’s real??

I want to say he confirmed he would be receiving a "press copy" or a "review copy" or something like that.

Yep, I got out for reasons that have been well-documented on this forum (not related to the Anthology), but man, this has been an utter shit show. Errors, big and small, with every single release so far.

And that's not including what's going on in the main club right now with fulfillment issues and poor inventory management. So glad I can let the expense and stress roll off.

I'm off to drink a glass of water.

My VMP money for next month went to Mr. Bongo already. Anthology and the stuff I already ordered and am waiting for are my last VMP purchases and I’m pretty happy about it.

Herr Star. Pictured in his VMP office overlooking ALL YOU UNIMPORTANT NOBODIES

You know it's VMP because they misspelled "Star" on his name plate.

I pictured him more like two kids stacked on top of each other underneath a trench coat pretending to be an adult running a company.

when has an anthology repress been confirmed?

They emailed subscribers today saying Shorter will be getting a repress since some copies had the wrong labels and incorrect sides etched into the dead-wax. Didn’t affect all copies but everyone will be getting a new one.

Sell them to your local record store.

Watch them just slap a shipping label on the record itself and ship it Amazon Warehouse style...

When does Amazon do this? As long as I've ordered from them, I've gotten LPs in nearly the same packaging that VMP stuff comes in.

Numerous people here have had this happen, myself included. Shipping label right on the jacket AAAAND send.

Has happened to me not once, not twice, but THRICE. 2 of the 3 times the record was shattered.
