Next shipment on it's way is Flaming Lips Fight Test 12" and Ego Tripping 12". Also have Foo Fighters Wasted Light coming, but it doesn't ship until the 3rd.

Did you get the 2×45 Wasted Light?  That one is excellent

Just checked the website and it says nothing about being 45's. 

Looks like it might only come in 45.  That's good news.

Didn't even cross my mind to check discogs, I love that website.

I love this album so much! I can’t believe it’s been 30 years already

Great album, for sure!  Love that cover photo of baby Lou poking around in the toilet!

Every now and then a remaster comes out that just simply strips the grime off the older version and turns a decent record into gem. The 2021 remastered Out of the Grey on Fire Records is just such an album.

I only heard about this reissue last week and what I read about sent me straight to a search and buy, and it showed up today. By the end of side one, I was simply floored. Grey had always seemed like a good record with a couple of fine songs, but the remastered version is a whole other thing. I am simply stunned! This baby just jumped up some big steps in terms of Wynn and company favorites for me.

Knocked it out of the park!

Yes, I have an og vinyl (had, actually, I'm putting the og pressing in my inventory of LPs that I sell at the bookstore).  I've played both through my Project Carbon Debut with red Ortofon cart, Polk Audio TSi100 speaker and both my Marantz PM 5005 tuner and my professionally restored Marantz 2220 B tuner.  The remastered reissue kills!  I have no need to keep the og.

Bingo!  

That cover photo is a still from the movie "Captains of the Clouds".

Well done!

Growing up my family were big into those eras so we watched a lot of Bowery Boys and Yankee Doodle Dandy type shows and movies... I'm quite fond of Danny Kaye, Bing and Astaire besides Cagney.  Top it off w some Maureen O'Hara please!!!!

Ah yes, those were regulars in my home growing up as well.  My pop  was an avian machinist's mate in the Navy, stationed in to Solomon Islands in WWII, so we watched a lot of things like McHale's Navy, Twelve O'clock High, Hogan's Heroes, as well as another series about submarines- probably The Silent Service.  "DIVE, DIVE!"

I've been hoping this got a vinyl treatment for 20 years.  I had no hope.  But then it just hits,  and mastered by Bernie Grundman no less.  Couldn't be happier!

What a great live album. Can’t wait to get this. 

It's as lovely as you recall,  better. New mix emphasizes different instruments so it feels new.  And MTV recording is as well done as always.  That series produced no audio duds. They are all excellent
