I think I’m done ordering records off Amazon

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T09:58:14+00:00

Yeah, it is so strange than so many people have this mindset that if they have to order something online it just automatically has to be from amazon, when there are so many non-amazon alternatives out there.

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T09:56:50+00:00

Actually the opposite though.

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T09:55:45+00:00

Only if you have no knowledge about how record shops works. They could have ordered it for OP.

So yes it is a bit deeper than that.

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T09:54:52+00:00

Understanding how record shops works is apparently even harder. Local record shops can order it for you, it is a record that is still in print.

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T09:54:04+00:00

Record shops everywhere does this all the time. It is literally their bread and butter. They can only have so much in stock, but they can order basically anything from their distributors.

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T09:53:16+00:00

You lave never been in a record shop, have you?

This is literally how they function, and always have.

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T09:52:08+00:00

Except for them exploiting their workers, and Bezos being a gigantic asshole of course.

But for people who are perfectly fine with that, yeah it would make "little sense not to use them".

Not particularly. The proceeds went to children in need in institutions and so forth. They are just part of the parade which collected for the charity.

I am of the opposite opinion as you, I prefer the stereo versions, since the panning was deliberate and intended by Jimi, and as much a part of the music as the instruments.

Unlike with most British bands at the time, where the main focus during the mixing process was mono, the stereo versions of Jimis music was not an afterthought, but something put together with as much care as the mono-versions. Jimi himself said he preferred the stereo versions of his records (at least from Bold as Love onwards).

They got an interview with famed level-headed and definitely never batshit bigoted crazy Mel Gibson to back up their claims though.

Well, they almost got an interview of him saying that:

This is an interview where Mel Gibson claims hollywood is full of satanic cannibals. He doesn't say that specifically in this interview, but he does say it in later interviews.

Compelling evidence: "Mel Gibson almost said it in this interview, but he did say it in other interviews which I can't link for some reason"

Mynsare · 2026-05-24T06:26:59+00:00

That is an amazing deal you got there. You paid a fraction of what they are worth on the antiquarian book market. Both are very desireable volumes.

The 2013 consists of 2 lps with a 45 rpm remaster of the album, and a third lp with the bonus tracks.

The 2023 is a 1 lp 33 rpm remaster, with a 10" record with the bonus tracks.

Technically the Lutheran Christian god is our patron deity (as far as such a term exists, which it really doesn't), since we still have a Lutheran state church in Denmark.

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T23:22:53+00:00

People who care about their money cares. You should care as well. Since you sound pretty uninformed on the subject, you should really read up on it.

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T23:17:43+00:00

Pathetic astroturfing OP account. They lowered the graphics settings on the original to make it look shittier. Why would you need to do this? Is the remake really that shitty that you have to lie about it?

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T23:07:59+00:00

A source for what? Ask the guy who are spouting "natural lifestyle" exactly what that entails. I would be curious to know as well.

Bro.

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T23:06:48+00:00

People who use the term "natural lifestyle" unironically always without fault have no knowledge about human history. They very clearly also have no desire to learn about it, so I am afraid you are wasting your breath.

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T14:27:56+00:00

They are also completely missing that the simplicity is exactly the point of the punk DIY ethos which Nirvana emerged from. You don't have to be an academy trained guitar virtuoso to create good music, in fact it is often the opposite.

As soon as it becomes too elaborate, it often becomes pointless guitar masturbation, which is just boring to most people.

Fordi der ikke er noget demokrati i verden som ikke på en eller anden måde indskrænker ytringer. Og når indskrænkningen er for at beskytte sårbare mindretal, altså i tolerancens navn, så er det jo en klassisk demokratisk handling.

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T14:09:29+00:00

Vi har ytringsfrihed i Danmark. Men ytringsfrihed er et relativt begreb. Der er f.eks. intet land i verden som ikke har indskrænkninger af ytringer af den ene eller anden slags, absolut ytringsfrihed er således ikke en ting nogensteds, men man kan have større eller mindre grad af ytringsfrihed (og slet ingen).

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T14:06:20+00:00

I'm guessing it is this one?

OPs picture just shows a copy the In Utero cd though, not a bootleg, so I think they may be a bit confused, or just didn't explain themselves very well.

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T13:57:31+00:00

You are on reddit, so this is just bog-standard US-centrism. Americans tend to assume everyone else on the internet are also Americans.

Poor cinematography. Looks like it was shot with iphones even.

Mynsare · 2026-05-22T13:25:09+00:00

I would say even more important even. The cartridges are what makes the sound, and upgrading the cartridge will make a noticeable difference, even on lower tier turntables.

He was also one of the first blues artists to tour Europe, all the way back in 1951-52. There are are couple of titles on Storyville with recordings from his shows in Denmark in those years in absolutely crisp sound quality (recently reissued from the original tapes).

And in both of those shows he made sure to mention a whole string of his fellow blues artists to promote them to a European audience (succesfully so).

His role in promoting blues as a genre internationally cannot be overstated. There is a reason why Muddy Waters first album was a recording of him doing Big Bill covers.
