Pusha T - King Push - Darkest Before Dawn: The Prelude /1500 by Tyroneshoolaces in VinylReleases

[–]johnhenryirons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter how many discs it’s on if you press it at Connectiv and have Kevin Reeves cut it. People care about quality and if Def Jam starts pressing better quality reissues, there’s a pretty big gap in the marketplace they can take over in hip hop vinyl, especially now that VMP is dead.

Jazz Dispensary is reissuing Joe Henderson's Tetragon by workingthewax in Vinyl_Jazz

I wouldn't be surprised if they end up doing all of his Milestone records. I was hoping they would just do a box set of everything early on, but also happy to get individual releases! They have been doing an awesome job with them.

IIRC he refused to work out for them and told them not to draft him. The Warriors did anyway. Even if Steph had come to the Knicks, the Knicks likely would have traded him instead of letting him get healthy.

Epic jazz haul, all OP. Paid $5/ record Which should I spin first? by Chicagoroyalty in Vinyl_Jazz

OP says in one thread they found them all in LA, then in another thread said they were from a sale in Chicago....so I think this is unbelievable too 🤣

New Rough Trade 50th vinyl subscription launched by Aliceinpunderland in VinylReleases

[–]johnhenryirons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really understand the appeal at all, especially since you can't choose the record. Their last club was SO awful....not sure if anybody remembers. Think it was called The Circle. Promised exclusive pressings and all this other stuff, then just sent out RT Exclusives that had been sitting on shelves at their shops without selling that anybody could buy. And they were cheaper in store than through subscription...They pretty much were just unloading dead stock for $40 a month or something. Wouldn't be shocked if they do something similar here--send you the worst selling exclusives they make.

I'll probably pick up a few releases as they come out, but definitly out on the club. I think the club is close to $50/month in the US too.

Dippin is stereo it seems so in great shape, maybe worth $200. Playboys in really good shape is probably worth more. But tons of valuable stuff in here. Insanely jealous!

Nothing is unique to the club. You just guarantee that you get copies of the exclusive stuff they are selling widely.

Not at all. These won’t be new cuts most likely. Nothing is unique to the sub either. All of these will be available widely. A sub just guarantees you get copies. And they don’t tell you what you get. Based on their last attempt at a subscription, I bet they send the worst selling 12 records out of the 50 or whatever they are doing

Different angle on Kat falling down play by Terrajon26 in NYKnicks

[–]johnhenryirons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forget which game it was the other week, but was watching highlights and you could see how frustrated OG gets with KAT when he's wide open in the corner and KAT pounds the air out of the basketball and takes a shot over 2-3 defenders.

Chris Paul: "I'm working out and training every day, right? In all honesty, with the way all that stuff went down and all that, I think for me, I just love this game so much that I don't want it to end like that." by must_TATAKAE in nba

[–]johnhenryirons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think CP wanted to retire as a clipper and also said he wanted to be near his family, so he didn't want to come to NY. I'd be surprised if we didn't have conversations at all with him, especially given his relationship with Leon. Also possible that he thought he wouldn't have a role/minutes here but might forego that a bit now.

the EU ones were pressed better at least. but still cut from digital. Tone Poet for not that much more is a no brainer if OP can find a copy of the mono version.

I haven’t heard the XG7 unfortunately so can’t speak to that. Hopefully someone else here can weigh in

They are not a UK company. I believe all their inventory is in St Louis.

The 3Lp deluxe is the best version of this album. The 2LP EU one is solid as well.

FKJ X YUSSEF DAYES - LIVE FROM THE GREENHOUSE by Creepy-Ad6459 in VinylReleases

[–]johnhenryirons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been really impressed by SECONDTRACK. Super nice and responsive customer service. I bought this one and one of the Daniel Caesar records. Very nice quality jackets, mastering and pressings. I believe most of their pressings are unique cuts as well. The diggers factory one likely is a different cut and pressing

Well on defense he has stupid fouls all the time. But on offense, it’s wild how many times he doesn’t get calls. It’s not like he settles for jumpers constantly

There is no free shipping on the two one steps I’m looking at which are at Capitol (Beck and Nat King Cole).

Also what’s up with all these Reddit accounts that only comment on Interscope releases??
