I only have "The Colour and the Shape," and Side 3 is messed up. It sounds like the groove itself is scratched. I've never heard "Hey, Johnny Park!" clearly on vinyl.
Thanks for posting

Thanks for the heads up! All the prices have dropped since I placed my pre-order... I love Amazon's pre-order guarantee... good to know I'll get it for the cheaper price...
Just a heads up - when I check Soundstage direct, they are all $40/album, except the original self titled which was $24.... Amazon is definitely the better deal.
Yeah, I don't know the difference either other than being pressed in the UK but I'm sure Tim from What Records can tell you

Not a chance. They are all fantastic.... In Your Honor is one of my all-time favorites...
Go see the band live and tell me that everything post color and shape is "rubbish".... pfffttt.
:shock: :shock:
Respectfully disagree!! I love the first four! I'm not a big fan of greatest hits albums and In Your Honor/Skin and Bones probably rank slightly below the first four for me personally but I wouldn't call them rubbish.
I saw FF on their first tour in the UK and then a couple more time on The Colour and the shape tours. They were great back then. Every album since TCATS I have liked less and less.....
The s/t record is probably still their best record.

Nooo, we must all agree on everything 100% of the time!
Please tell me you've at least checked out Wasting Light!
yeah I've given them all spins, just not my thing anymore. Maybe I grew out of them rather than them stopping being good!
I met Dave Grohl in the Cro-bar in Soho, London once. He was with Nate Mendell and I had a little chat with Dave and told him how pysched I was to have met Nate Mendell as he was in Sunny Day Real Estate

Wasting Light is epic... love that album... my favorite release for 2011 is a toss up between that and The Whole Love by Wilco....
I just ordered their self titled and Wasting Light. I didn't like too much besides a few singles off each album inbetween so I'll prob have to order their greatest hits too. Thanks for the heads up on the re-issues!

Some words when spoken can't be taken back
$35 sealed, entire purchase goes to JMo's Mom's fund.
Guess what. IT'S THE FUCKING US PRESSS :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: Hah. Serves me right for falling for anything that says "Limited Deluxe"
So, it's pretty much crossed the ocean 4x because this was marketed by Sony Music Entertainment, 550 Madison Avenue, frigging 10 blocks from me
Okay, that was fun. Lesson is, if anyone's still thinking of buying this and wondering about the difference, THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE!!! Looks like the reissues are all the US pressing so if you're in the US just get it from Amazon.
Interesting you say that.... I was never a huge Foos fan myself. Seen them live and the whole shebang... It was an acoustic set though...
I did pick up the "Nothing Left To Lose" reissue on vinyl. Wasting Light might really be worth having on vinyl as it was actually recorded via analog. I found that album to be like the majority of FF albums: a good, solid album, but not great.

Don't they basically play their 20-25 biggest songs every night? I've also heard mixed reviews of their shows. Alot of people(I'm assuming big fans) say they were the best show they've ever seen, but the casual fans I've talked with have said they're pretty crummy sounding. I know in what I've listened to I could get through about 3x of Grohl's ridiculous shitty screaming. It's like..."Dude, you're in a pop rock band, not fuckin Slayer, so drop it".
I don't think they're albums are rubbish, but don't see how anybody could call them fantastic either.
I've yet to see them live but yeah in looking at the sets from this year and in the past, they do play a greatest hits setlist with a few tracks from their latest album thrown in. Sucks because I like their entire catalog and it would be great for them to play anything like PJ. They also seem to be into dragging out those hits with unnecessary 10 minute jams. Time which could be better spent playing additional deep album tracks. But despite this, I still want to see them live at least once. I don't think it'll be anywhere near as good as PJ though.
