If you only had the cash to start it up you could without any problems press 500 copies of... the Orpheum CD on vinyl.You could make a nice sleeve for it, press it on colored vinyl. Even different random colors.

Would people actually buy that?
Then I should consider doing it. Doesn't cost much for each record as long as you get the cash back.

Not to mention the band gets zilch for this.

Not buy it. Its an unofficial Pearl Jam release. If people are willing to buy this thing, they are pretty silly. It was £8 on cd when it came out a month ago and I came to my senses and cancelled the pre-order.

Thanks! I decided to pass on this one and pre-ordered the Brad CD.

You sure it's from the inferior mp3 sources then the superior flac sources that have spread for a long time online in the trading community? Wish we had more word about this then just guessing for ourselves.

Regardless of the source its an unofficial release.

If someone had made these themselves and put them on ebay there'd be uproar but because its What Records its alright. Wake up people!

i dont think whatrecords have made (pressed) these...but i think hes bought them all of someone to sell on .,.

imo still big money for a boot...and putting the price up :roll:

Pretty disappointed with What Records regarding this to be honest. This is just another knock-off bootleg release, using sources recorded of the radio, stuck on vinyl and "limited to 500" to make people think they're buying some awesome limited edition item. It's utter shite. Sorry to anyone here who bought it, but you've just wasted your money, big time. It's worthless.

Oh I know What Records haven't made these. Chrome Dreams released the cd so I'd imagine they've pressed the vinyl.

But yeah I think What Records have seen they can make quick money here. Good luck to them but after my problems last year I wouldn't use them again. And selling an unofficial release like its an official release is a poor decision in my book.

I guess it's just a matter of choices.. Personally, I'm an avid collector and I would buy everything (official releases) with Pearl Jam written on it.. a good example is the NY 1992 cd given away with the self titled cd, that was not only a pretty poor recording, but it was probably mp3 sourced (you can even hear transitions between tracks, pretty ridiculous for an official release), but that was official so even if sold separately I would have buy it..
with bootlegs, I really can't understand why you should buy a release like these right now on what records, to me it's absurd.. it's not a collector thing (because it's not official) and not about sound quality (we all know unofficial bootlegs don't use the best possible sources, right?).. so what's the point? the only interesting and worth to buy bootlegs are the ones that contain sources not available elsewhere, for example "too many faces" (1992-06-10 show) or brixton (1993-07-14 show) to say just two, you can find them on the net but are directly ripped from these boots so it does make sense to buy the silver unofficial bootlegs since they are the "best and lower gen sources" (for now, at least)..

and like already said by others, if I was to press vinyl from my flac sources and sell them for $20 everyone would call me an asshole (with a good reason), and reporting me to ten club, but if an online store like what recors does the same thing (even if they not materially pressed them), and probably using crappy and lossy sources, charging stupid prices for shipping, then it's all ok.. isn't the world strange?

how come 10c doesn't step in and stop this? I thought bootlegging for profit was frowned upon?

It's technically not a bootleg. Don't ask me the finer details of copyright law. It's basically one giant headache to me. This recording already came out in Europe in CD format. It's a live recording. Someone in Europe owns the live recording and they are permitted to release it. (I think this was in another post on the 10c board from PJ management when the CD came out). So technically its not a bootleg as it was issued legally. However it has nothing to do with the band and they never sanctioned its release.

This is why it can't get released in North America. I don't think it would stand up to North American copyright law. Soundstagedirect it selling a different pressing of it (on red vinyl?). It must be imported as well.

I only got the shipping email the other day. It usually takes a week or two for me to get stuff from the UK (I do find it weird that I find things shipped from the UK to Canada arrive quicker than US to Canada).

As for the other posts. I like collecting stuff PJ. When I was younger I used to like buying silver pressed bootlegs. Now I have a hard time saying no when I see a bootleg vinyl.

Same here on June 15th I received a shipping confirmation. Surprised nobody in the UK or close by haven't received it yet.

Unofficial Silver CD Pearl Jam Bootlegs? I got the stuff.

I received mine from Soundstagedirect today, red vinyl. Not bad.

Well, apparently, all we need is a rich-ass Ten Club member to copy the CDs to vinyl.

Obvious would be one red disc, one white disc, and one blue disc. Picture of the confetti falling down (PJ20) as a fourth disc..

Someone with the dollars and tech needs to get on this. Please.
