    After 64 days of travel, one USPS request for search, and 3 phone calls with a USPS rep, my Iron Maiden Number of the Beast was delivered today. It was accepted at the post office in Oklahoma November 18th and arrived at my house in Illinois January 22nd. Now to get home after work and see how well it survived the trip! 
    I had a couple records I ordered from Craft Recordings that were in the mail for 57 days, just got them yesterday. Surprised to see them in good condition. I would have been pissed to wait that long and them be messed up. I have made my mind up however to only order from large stores during the pandemic from this point forward. Smaller operations and ordering from labels seem to take forever. Media Mail should just advertise itself as "you might get it sometime".
    The USPS rep told me that Media Mail was the cheapest way to send the album, so it might take a little longer sometimes. I asked him if it should take 2 months. He said no, that seemed like an unusually long time. Ya think??

    Angel Dust is amazing. Is that the MoV RE? If so, it’s a fantastic pressing

    It is and you're right. Sounds incredible.

    I was listening to Sinead yesterday. I have the CD. So good. I was thinking of getting it on vinyl. How does it sound?

    I got lost in 'hallowed be thy name' a few weeks ago...put up the 'do not disturb' sign before spinning. Enjoy.

    Love this Sinead album but sad to say my copy is garbage. My own fault. Met the seller to buy and didn't look hard enough at the condition. Sad about that. Wasted money. Hoping for a reissue soon. Saw Sinead live earlier last year before the lockdowns started and she was absolutely incredible.

    The seller put the mailer in a bigger box along with some cushioning. The outer box was beat up but the mailer and LP looked great. After I go for a run, it’s going on the turntable!

    Sorry to hear that you got a bad copy. I also hope for a reissue. I saw Sinead in 1990. I can’t believe it was that long ago. I do remember it being a great show. But my boyfriend at the time and his friend dropped acid right before the show and I ended up feeling like a designated babysitter for them. But still fun.

    Was surprised to find Prick in our local record store. I loved that album in the 90’s.
    And I finally picked up the Binaural reissue. Studio run complete 😀😀😀. Now for Lost Dogs.

    Nice haul. I remember I had the 45 of Soul Man when I was kid. I wish I could find my 45s. They have all vanished somewhere. Probably hidden somewhere at my parent’s house.
