No Come Together, no Remember Walking in the Sand, no Chip Away the Stone. Nothing from the massively underated Night in the Ruts or Rock in a Hard Place (what about Lightning Strikes and the title track).
Lucinda Williams - Stories From A Rock N Roll Heart
posted a review of Lucinda Williams - Stories From A Rock N Roll Heart. 10 months ago
Excellent album, poor pressing, like quite a few of Lucinda's albums - it's about time someone used a decent pressing plant.
Blue October (2) - History For Sale
posted a review of Blue October (2) - History For Sale. about 1 year ago
100% classic from start to finish. How a track like Ugly Side didn't get more exposure I don't know. Really could do with this on Vinyl.

I think the CD sounds great, but the mastering of the vinyl is too compressed.

Can't understand why this classic is still not out on vinyl. Same with History for Sale and Consent to Treatment.

Great, somewhat underated Heartbreakers LP. Very much part of the killer trilogy alongside Damn the Torpedoes & Hard Promises.

Amazon did exactly the same with mine. £109 and they can't even put it in a box.

I have had two of these from Amazon, both very thick vinyl, both poor pressings, both have gone back.

Get the original vinyl. Still nothing comes close to it. This and Relayer are too of the poorest Friday Music issues - the mastering is dreadful.

Great re-master, pity they couldn't press it properly though, as there's quite a bit of surface noise, particularly in the quieter sections. I have had two copies now and there all much the same.

Just discovered that the playing surface of this CD has completely degraded and is now useless. Anyone else found this?

Finally seems that some of these are available in Europe. Amazon.co.uk has it available for £105.86 via Amazon.eu.

Update: Yet another Amazon "false" listing of an album they haven't and can't get - But, they will string the customer along anyway.

First real Paul Westerberg album since Folker in 2004. And it's one of his best.

Great album and God Mike Campbell's voice is almost a carbon copy of TP much of the time. Great production and mastering as well.

Disc 2 is a great recording of Aerosmith at their 70's peak - It is superior to Live Bootleg in every way.

God bless you Ric Ocasek, one of Rock's great innovators. Your music sounds as fresh today as it did back in the 70's and 80's.

Great album, terrible vinyl manufacturing - I have had three, they have all been very noisy, had centre holes so tight, it can literally take five minutes to prise them off the turntable.

I would have expected the BBC to have mastered this better than they have. It is far too bass heavy, with the drums dominating the mix. A great pity. This is a pale shadow of the BBC theatre recording done a few days after Glastonbury in 2000 and... See full review

This really could do with a vinyl (boxset) release - Aerosmith are lagging behind badly in the Deluxe Vinyl re-issue game compared to Zeppelin, the Stones, U2 etc.

This is a great record, very big hint of '70's Aerosmith and AC/DC. I suppose it's not that surprising as they were touring the US with Aerosmith at the time.
