I’m pretty excited to get it. I may invite my dad over to hear it. He’s not much of a music fan but he may dig it.

Interesting how they have Angel Olsen listed as on sale, but it's not even on the site, let alone part of the sale. If you click it you get a 404 error

Love how they denote that Best Record Stores book is a VMP Exclusive. As if any other publisher would have put their name on that thing
Vinyl Box Set #4
Erykah Badu curated this box set of Fela Kuti jams, 7LPs of his headier, spaced out late '70s and '80s LPs.

I find this selection odd even though the music is great. It came out in 2017 and the price currently on discogs is $75-$90 versus VMP @ $115.View attachment 38871

It is currently on Amazon for $89.72 as well. Most of what Fela did is great, but the other three boxes have higher highs, which I think is why their resale value is so high. Not sure why they don't repress them.

Aren’t they essentially all available individually now?

Weren't they going to be getting away from that and standardi -- ah forget it, Jake, it's VMP.

Oh yeah, maybe? Wonder why people are paying so much for the boxes then. Just for the books?

Quite possibly

High Violet is now available to non-members. With the $14.95 shipping and conversion to CDN, it actually comes out to more than what the American Mary website charges. I’m going to try and find it somewhere else. Oh, and VMP has a limit of 2.
High Violet (10th Anniversary Expanded Edition)

So for those relatively new to Fela, which albums are the highest highs?

Great box set from Fela, with my personal favourite No Agreement. V.I.P is a close second. Maybe not his "greatest hits", but I already owned most of those individually anyways.
I bought this box in Europe through Dodax if anyone on this side of the ocean is interested:

I really love the following:
Roforofo Fight (especially including Question Jam Answer, not sure how it has been reissued, sometimes they are split into two albums)
Shakara
Confusion
Expensive Shit
Sorrow Tears And Blood
Zombie
To start with at least
Most are worth a stream though!

I love the live album with Ginger Baker. The most well known studio albums are probably Expensive Shit and Zombie. I love all of his music that I have heard.

This would be my list almost exactly. The Afrobeat rabbit hole is deep but super rewarding.

That Fela set was once in the VMP store back in the day. Maybe they found a box in the warehouse?
Would be a cool Swap Exclusive
