Thanks for the clarification, I actually wasn't aware of the pressing you mentioned. I'd also add that I found a few "unboxing" and in-depth reviews of several ERC releases since then on YouTube, most reliable and definitive from a pal named In-Groove... See full review

The only problem with this review is winchrecords (no offense, Winch: I just don't like bigots). Of course, since Winch Man doesn't like flutes, that means critics must've hated this set.

Come on, pal, just listen to yourself.

This fantastic record is certainly one of the nicest thrift-store finds! Very close to NM both on the disc and sleeve. A brief note on the packaging design—not sure whether 'Turnabout / Vox Historical Series' was ever intended as budget, but overall excellent printing... See full review

Bought this in Oct 2019, at Melvins concert at Cat's Cradle in Carrboro, NC for $40 or $50 (can't recall exactly). Stamped no. 147. It's the most I ever paid for a single record, especially a 10" single, but well worth it,... See full review

On a personal note—while ECR's replica pressings certainly are mesmerizing and breathtakingly beautiful, I don't see myself pursuing such editions even when/if I'll have the disposable income to afford them. For the simple reason that opening a... See full review

UPD1. I realized it's also worth noting that ERC's is the first edition to include all Overtures from that cycle, in Stereo, remastered together. (Hence thirteen discs in the package, versus nine that earlier Stereo boxsets... See full review

On the other hand, d_a_n_t, pretty much as long as the "music industry" and record collecting exists, there's only one rule in the game: "Every record is worth exactly as much as someone's willing to pay for it." There's absolutely nothing... See full review

Which, btw, Cryzthormagnusian, was a superuseful insight! I didn't know about this cutout for sales commission, for example (despite being on Discogs for 17 years, LMAO, I just barely ever use Marketplace), and really change the story (basically,... See full review

Good point! It certainly looks suspicious, at the 1st glance. The Sales History page doesn't give too much background info on past transactions. Perhaps, taking a look at that seller's profile would be helpful. Because it also might've been... See full review

Thanks, very useful trivia! Indeed, there's a music producer Jeff Strichart, currently based in Loveland, CO, who "play, record, mix, master and do post-production work in a creative manner" since Jan 1980, as per his LinkedIn profile. He also posted... See full review

Thanks! Incorporated this info in the release's entry.

My harsh criticism of "Watch The Throne" is entirely focused on Otis, the album's second single produced by Kanye West. Any other WtT achievements are meaningless in light of this outrageous, despicable, necrophiliac... See full review

Although the steady interest* still surrounds this mediocre white-label Prince's '1999' house edit 20+ years later, little's ever said about the actual music/sound; just all auction lots boasting about the "rarity" and "exclusivity."

Wow, as amazing as this album truly is, the fact that in just 7yrs since the release in grew in price that much is shocking. I bought it in Dec 2013/Jan 2014 at Kontra Plak record... See full review

That patchouli fragrance infusion briefly mentioned in Release Notes is, in fact, an epic and quirky gimmick, making this record one of people's favorite "show-n-tells" in my collection. Works every... See full review
