    Cool Thing about the Pearl Jam vinyl; it is slightly different than the CD. The vinyl's cover print has a hand-painted effect to it rather than the flat red ink color. Tried to show it with this pic:

    The 12x12 book has handwritten lyrics rather than the print font on the CD
    There's also a 12x24 sticker set with the song emblems and silhouettes of the band members

    So I went to this record fair on the weekend that happens every quarter, you see the usual things over and over, lots of rubbish not to my taste, then digging through one particular crate, not really expecting too much and came across this...

    How does it sound! Heard issues.....

    Playing it now...will let you know.

    Through with side A; No issues

    Pendulum really comes to life

    Done with Side B; No issues

    Hyper-critique: There were 2 clicks (my fathers son and lightning bolt) and 1 pop (Infallible) in total...nothing that was distracting or took away from the listening experience, nothing out of the ordinary for vinyl. Side 2 was flawless.

    Sounds like other people are having deeper issues than this. But if anyone complained after getting a copy like mine, I'd say stick with CD's or MP3s as your listening medium.

    The recording itself has Brendan O'Brien's mainstream production quality to it, which squashes the lively-sound quality of the album from the get-go. It sounds a step up from the CD, but it has O'Brien's post 1990's footprint (IMO; highly controlled sound with a flat dynamic) on it no matter what how you listen to it.

    One last detail: In the deadwax there's an inscriptions that reads, "In the league of crafty fulminologists/Surf is where you find it - Gerry Lopez"

    I can't believe all the LB vinyl is messed up and being pulled from stores. :fp: OMG 10C. That couldn't be good for record sales! ... We could be waiting a looooooooong time for a copy of LB that sounds good! :(

    My sub-category for the today in thread is :

    "I almost just picked up ______ on vinyl."

    I prefer mortar and brick record stores but I spotted an awesome small batch of vinyl on "FleaBay" ( :lol: - I love that but I can't remember where I read it)- stuff I really wanted to hear- some again, some new- so I excitedly placed my bid- a good one- and watched the seconds tick down. 4...3...2...NO! :x Outbid last second by a machine. Totally bummed!

    Thanks for listening. :lol:

    That's happened to me too... at 1 second you're already celebrating winning, and then the rug is pulled out from underneath. Very frustrating! :fp:

    So I was waiting for my record store to get Lightning Bolt in stock, but they haven't yet. Sounds like a bunch of problems. Are they really pulling copies because of bad quality? Sorry I didn't see another thread with more details about it.

    seems about 50% of them have pops/clicks/skips/buzzing that is beyond listenable. The other 50% are fine.
