Boom! I have the Umiliani La Ragazza Dalla Pelle Di Luna repress on order right now. Can't wait to check it out. Would also love to check out all the new Sonor Music Editions.

I got UST 370 USIGNOLO in the mail today, haven't cracked it open yet.

It's been a while since I posted in here so please bear with me. This is the Japanese pressing of Slaughter's from 1989 on Polydor. Great album and it sounds spectacular.

A Dollar (Pound) bin score for some, but pure gold to me. If you can't get down with Faltermeyer, then the rest of this post is going to be pretty annoying.

Now we get to the shameless stuff.



That's right. Faltermeyer like you read about, kid!

So jealous of that Faltermeyer stash! Axel F now and forevermore, amen.

So it is written. So shall it be.

There are people who don't like Faltermeyer?

Very nice Mateo! Looks great.

Thoughts on Manhattan Baby? I got a yellow copy, it is super meh. Poorly manufactured (pitting) and quite noisy, and the cover is missing the text.

I'd still really love to see Spencer reissue this on Death Waltz, I'd absolutely shelve this "Sub OST" and buy a proper reissue.

My copy is on black vinyl and it sounds quite good. I still need to give it a cleaning, but none of those issues seem to have made their way to the black pressing.

@texas - I picked up a black vinyl copy of the Manhattan Baby repress. I did not notice any pitting or surface noise, but I still prefer the sound on the OG for those first four tracks. I do enjoy having the rest of the sequences on the flip side. Fully agreed on the desire for a deluxe DWRC release.

This nifty little number just arrived from amazon.fr

Tricky to photograph thanks to the reflective mirrored sleeve.

Cor!

[Bezulsqy]

Mine arrived as well :-)
In this is what Amazon.fr call a record mailer:

They're telling me that my delivery is delayed for some (french) reason.......whaaaaaattt????

I needs this up in my life!

:)

[deafmetal]

I have received a few LP's from Amazon.com that were in a standard oversized mailer, which was then placed inside another larger box filled with those air pillow things. Crazy.

Well, as long as it arrives in one piece, rather than pieces. :) My Neon Demon actually arrived in a very thin, bog standard bit of card, so I was grateful it wasn't affected in transit ... I did see someone posting where Amazon had literally stuck the address label on the shrink wrapped record, with no external packaging

@Spun

Don't need to hear that!!!

[Spun out of control]

@ScoJo

Heh! Hopefully that was a true one off bit of idiocy :)

I have faith that the vinyl gods will smile on you.

(Thought i was dreaming so looked back through my Twitter feed and below is the offending photo posted with the poster's message:)

the funny thing is it looks like it arrived in better shape without packaging than half the records i get from europe that look like they were processed through a killbot

I saw that posted elsewhere as well. WILD WEST type packaging right there.
