Heads up for MC5 fans in Canada. The MC5 3LP “Total Assault” is half price on Amazon. I don’t normally buy off Amazon unless there are
deals like this one. You get all 3 lps for $40. Tough to beat.0 -

a. have excessively unreasonable expectations and anything less than absolute perfection is trash
b. Enjoy complaining for the sake of complaining.
Could there be pressing issues? Yup. We’re buying a $20-25 dollar album, being mastered from tapes that are 50-70 years old, that are being mass produced during a worldwide pandemic. There has to be some level of tolerance for slight defects here and there. Now, that’s not an excuse for total disregard for lack of QC, which I don’t think is the issue with these BN Classics.Now, if you’re buying high end pressings from AS, MM, and other releases that are $100-200 a pop, different story.I’ve also read that some of the issues people are griping about are directly related with issues with the recording and masters.Hot horns, tape distortion and damage which are present on the originals.
I have 5 of the 6 of these releases so far, and my very happy with the product and have had no issues.I'm somewhere in between. I agree that expecting perfection for re-issues is unrealistic and the price of originals is outrageous and only for people with deep discretionary income pockets. But what does disturb me a bit is that it can be very, very hard to find information on sourcing for re-issues. There are several jazz re-issues that are needle drop source and you have to be a detective to find that information. Why is this information kept on the q.t.? Why not just be transparent and let the buyer decide?As for the Hoffman site, sure, some of those guys that post there are full of themselves (it's the internet- what's new? haha) but I've gotten information there that has been pure gold. No complaints here- you just need to sift a bit.
Well, one recent example is an Original Jazz Classics/ Contemporary Records OJC-163 repressing of Ornette Coleman's Something Else!!!!. Someone on Hoffman said it was probably needle drop sourced. If so, it was a pretty darned clean needle drop and I'm happy to have this reissue. I'm a big enough Ornette fan that I'd take anything that's at least better than what gets played on Fred Flinstone's prehistoric set up over nothing, but I wish they would at least give out this information because if there's a better source and it's affordable for me, I'd like to know. Not a huge deal I guess- at least not for someone in my tax bracket.

Any feedback on record store exclusive pressings? Specifically zia records. I'm thinking about ordering something but not sure of quality or if it's more of a novelty. I know bull moose and Newbury does it too. Limited colored pressings.0

The Newbury pressings I've bought have all been good, same for TTL exclusives.
Edit: Actually, a few of the Newbury exclusive are top-notch pressings (thinking Miles and Jimi).Post edited by dankind onI SAW PEARL JAM0 -

Just preordered bad brains zia exclusive. One of my favorite bands and they are putting out reissues. Most of their stuff I have on cd or had on cassette. I just wanted to make sure they were official. not into supporting bootlegs.0

The long overdue Bad Brains RE got me thinking and I contacted Music on Vinyl.If you believe that a long forgotten band requires a vinyl reissue you can email MoV here:
request@musiconvinyl.com
I was informed they take each request into serious consideration. I suggested they RE this long forgotten 1993 gem:0 -
Does anyone have the Kind of Blue mono vinyl?0
