2 out of 3 ain't bad

Actually there are 2LP versions of ATCQ. Maybe a VMP clue error?

Or 36 chambers.

I gotta think Midnight Marauders is out. There are more than a few 2 LPs of this one.

Or 36 chambers.

My thought.

 

[duke86fan]

Or 36 chambers.

But I already own 36

Yup. Unless they were only referring to US releases (which seems to oftentimes be the case).

Grats! It’s an all time great record, you can either keep it for a higher quality pressing or swap it.

That would be a hard one for me. I'd love to get an upgrade, but how much of an upgrade would it be? Do I sign up for another month to find out?

Hoping it is not 36 Chambers, its an epic album but goddamn Midnight Marauders would make it to the table 400x more.

 

[duke86fan]

Wait

The 2LP versions were only in Europe

And we know European presses don't matter

Not to mention I don't think 36 can really sound much better than it currently does.

It’s gotta be MM. They’ve made it clear in the past that they don’t take into account non-US pressings.

Yeah, I’ve been known to upgrade copies of Pavement albums and pay extra for better reissues of GBV andYLT albums so it’s an easy decision for me.

I own MM and 36 Chambers already but they are both all time greats in my book so long as it’s one of them and it’s a 2xLP version VMP can shut up and take my money.

 

[duke86fan]

I mostly just don't want to still my original copy and I don't really want deloused (have to relisten) so my 40 bucks in member credits were pointless

 

[keylime_5]

If it is Midnight Marauders, the the "has never been on 2LP" clue is garbage. should just say never in the US.

Sadly...
