When Crate Diggers track (that is not just a mix of colored variants of Now Again, Tidal Waves and Mr Bongo)?
dead in the water I think.
I really like the idea of a rock track, this is just so poor, I don’t think I could have curated it worse if I was actively trying to piss people off,
I always forget Shangri la, and I honestly had no idea he was on s/t, I thought that was one of the other singers.
I think thin lizzy would've fit in here if they'd had it operational then. I'm sure they'll get to non-us rock sooner rather than later
I dunno, a lot of those "this is easy to find" complaints also fit the other tracks, especially country classics. Their shtick is that they add something you don't get from a beat old og copy. Ymmv
All Classic rock greatest hits comps. ccr, queen, bowie....
I mean Bono is a dick but in comparison Sublime is just offensively bad. I’d rather hang around with embarrassing activist dad than than junkies that sing “funny” songs about date rape.
They already did that album
I dunno, there will be the ocassional one but just have a look at their history, they’re so shockingly us centric that it’s embarassing.
More generally referring to the skid mark of a band who they are featuring for a fucking second time in this track.
Yeah I get the ZZ Top, I kinda get the grunge one too even though I’d not go near it.
But that Stooges double with both mixes is still really available, the various presses of the strokes mov are good and really available, as is the soad album. I’ve made my feelings known on the other “band”.
Yeah I've got the KPG 2 LP Stooges so yeah no thanks on that one.
Oh yeah, that one is $36 locally, and in stock.
Hard pass I guess then.
apparently there's a story uh...behind.... this, that storf will be talking about on a future podcast. I'm hoping they use it for the art print.
stp4 is worth it just for atlanta

Well I already have the AAA Rhino of Tres Hombres which is gonna be hard to top, and I have the 2 LP of Raw Power with both mixes (but I'm still in for this one just to hear a different mastering take, and the fancy VMP packaging). STP No. 4 only had one European vinyl release before which is spendy nowadays to acquire, none in the US, so that's actually a very intriguing pick. In for Toxicity as well, that'll take me back to 9th grade. Have a Strokes already with the better EU cover and it sounds pretty great, so I'm 3/6, but very excited to see what's in store for 2024 with this track. So many rock albums that need vinyl reissues that we dont have to bottleneck in the to-do list for Essentials now.

System of a Down isn't white guys. And to be fair, rock was a genre whose genesis was just white guys playing black music. it's a very white, male heavy genre. But I'm sure we'll get diversity soon like we do in all the tracks.
