    Ugh. I hate FedEx. I always have issues with them. Hopefully the next copy they send will be in better shape. In the meantime I got the super deluxe edition and it's pretty great.
    That sucks but I love FedEx here in town.  To be fair,  it's only used for Acoustic Sounds and their boxes are designed perfectly,  so even fedex can't Jack them up.  And they deliver on Sundays
    Idk. Every time I have something delivered by FedEx it's either way late or damaged. I even ended up having to go to the distribution center for several things because they screwed up so bad a few times, which is ridiculous. I have way better luck with ups and usps has actually been decent as of late which is saying a lot.

    That album did not age well with me.  I can't listen to it anymore...

    @mrussel1 you inspired me. I went on a (predominantly) jazz online spending splurge last night after seeing your recent purchase. A little folk rock, punk and classical also made into the cart. I probably shouldn’t have purchased that PanAm record, being one of those European public domain labels which generally have poor sources but it was inexpensive. Pretty excited for these to all arrive.

    That Time In sounds amazing.  Starts strange the way the stereo is set up, you'll think a speaker is off.. then it explodes.  Monk's Dream is one of my favorite records.

    The Polish Hall in Edmonton! I grew up near the Jasper Park border. Late night drives home after seeing shows in the city were commonplace. I saw SNFU at the Bronx in 92 (with fake ID 😂) and later on 96 maybe when it became the Rev. I ended up living in Edmonton for a while of course.  There were some great shows in that place, including Nirvana in March of ‘91, I wasn’t there.... and apparently there was hardly anyone there. http://etownravehistoryproject.blogspot.com/2016/12/bronx-lush-rev-from-archives.html?m=1
    My roommate had this CD and we played it constantly.  

    I found this on Discogs from someone in Germany (been looking for a looong time). German postal rates are the cheapest in the world, by far. About $11 CAD dollars to ship a NM. Was 35€ for one of these 2000 copies. Super pumped to give it a spin when it arrives.

    That seller won’t ship to Canada. Helluva good price for a 30 year old sealed record. I’m wary of really old sealed records myself.

    saw nothing in their terms they wont ship to canada or other international destinations.

    you're set so....

    as for sealed old records, haven't had any issues myself.

    recently purchased og vitalogy, its perfect.

    It’s a cassette version you are looking at I am guessing, which makes more sense:

    Went to the P.O. this weekend and it was locked up due to vandalism.  Went back today and they were open with a sign saying, "Some boxes were opened this weekend by vandals".  I knew I had some records due and and was really worried.  I lucked out- all was safe including these (especially thrilled to finally have the new Dinosaur Jr!):

    Just opened this. I haven't played it, but the label on side one is not glued down all the way. It is bubbling up all over. I think this one is going back. I got it at a local record shop, so I should be able to easily return or exchange it.

    If it is bubbled, you may check and see if it is a second label on top of another. I’ve had that happen a few times. The bubbled up label just kinda peels off reveling another label underneath.

    There's a certain Beatles album for which something like that would be quite fortuitous!

    Don't you think the glue would have dried by now though?  I would love to unearth a butcher album!

    Yea, no doubt. I have had a few of the double labels over the years with records. Since the labels are actually pressed into the vinyl and not glued, whenever you see a bubble it is usually a 2nd label that is on top of the label that is pressed in the vinyl. They are usually easily removed. And then you have an extra paper label which is kinda cool. I have kept all mine.
