What is your number one tip for sellers?
Grade conservatively. Customers love opening up their packages and finding out that the record is in better shape than you listed!
What is your number two tip for sellers?
Use better vinyl packaging.
For instance: LAX oversized with corrugated cardboard and corners protected
I started in the seventies with buying records and cutouts especially, and haven't stopped since! At that time I liked cutouts a lot, because they were new and sealed (untouched, like a virgin...), although unfortunately for me not priced $1.99 or $3.99 over here in Amsterdam! I had to pay slightly more in guldens (Dutch guilders)....

[quote=Slave2theNeedle] See a lot of complaining about the sound level and the surface noise. Not sure if I just got a stellar copy because compared to my OG Westbound and Down copy this sounds exceptionally better. Mine has zero surface noise and...

One of the best pop albums ever to come out of the Netherlands. It really is....
To enjoy it properly I would suggest you look for the 2019 vinyl edition. |

October 2021 this wil be reissued (pure analogue reissue) by Speakers Corner
|

I love the album and of course Etta's vocal delivery but in particular the string arrangements from Riley Hampton are rather pedestrian. All in my opinion of course.

For all the criticism Rainbo got during their tenure as pressing facility this pressing was proof they could really deliver a quality product. And do not forget that a lot of companies/artists Rainbo pressed for never requested/listened to test pressings.

So please people do not buy this sealed if you want the gorgeous analogue version, unless the seller can vouch for having this in his inventory before the DIGITAL David Bowie - The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars from 2020. The 2012 reissue and the 2016 repress both are analogue.

Only reviews about the colours of the various vinyl releases?
Wow, such a wonderful album! |

Agreed, I really like this version and also the top end. Not bright to me...

Not endorsed or licensed by the band. Cyril Jordan holds the quarter inch copy master and has not been contacted/consulted in any way. They will not see any money from this release.

Pity Verve/UMe did not decide to use both sleeves. I like the other sleeve better

This was confirmed by Joe Harley (the one and only Tone Poet) on the Steve Hoffman forum: "It's there and it's most likely a tape issue ....likely that something had to be flown in for those few minutes. It happens with these old tapes."

Worth it alone for the Liner Notes by Graham Parker. His description of Jack Nitzsche's behaviour is priceless!
And there is this from his interview with Geoffrey Himes: MUSICIAN: [i]How did things change when you and the Rumour did Squeezing... See full review |

Side A 3:25 3:52
Side B 3:35 3:35 2:47 Side C 3:24 3:10 3:25 Side D 3:23 3:57 So, who says audiophiles are lazy huh? They have to get up from their comfy chairs to change sides approximately every 8-9 minutes!!! Mofi keeps them fit. |

As much as I admire Chad Kassem and his battle against audiophile obesitas (approximately 9 minutes per side means you have to get up all the time from your lazy chair in the sweet spot) I would love a 33 rpm version from AP.

It is not a downright bad reissue but as is the case for most Friday Music vinyl releases: not worth the extra money. If you can find a original US pressing in good clean condition you are set. And why the gatefold and ugly modification of the...

This cd-only compilation is LOUD, as in unable-to-crank-it-up-on-a-decent-set.
While I normally don't look for dynamic range measurement as the only criterion for sound quality in this case I looked it... See full review |

This is a wonderful compilation by Hanns-Peter Bushoff with truly excellent sound quality(vinyl).
|
|
Such a great album on vinyl. Good mastering by Larry Nix too.
|
|
Ok I have to defend someone here. Luke Pacholski came with the review of the Sundazed mono reissue. The claim by Bob Irwin that it was from the original tapes was false. The fact that Kevin Gray did the vinyl cut has nothing to do with it. Had...

Quality Vinyl REPRESS needed badly warning!!
Such a terrific album.....great guitar playing by Doug Pettibone. |
|

|
|
No it is not a repress, it is a DM(Digital Master)from 1986, the original Tom Waits - Swordfishtrombones has different lacquers

Plus this time he got the complete Little Feat on board.

A: weird you give this a one star rating (based on a bad copy, not bad music or performance) B: my guess is you bought it secondhand, could have been played on a Crosley 'groovecruncher' |
|
MultiTrak Talk about cohesive: approximately 6 minutes per side for the AP 45rpm 2-LP is severely disrupting the flow of the original album.

Be glad with the misprint people of the Side B label I say. Now you know you have the genuine 1st pressing whenever they will repress these...

Don't take it from me but rather take it from Michael Fremer : "...Paul Simon's Negotiations and Love Songs 1971-1986 compilation (Warner Brothers 9 25789-1 2 LPs) was lovingly assembled using the original master tapes by engineer Roy Halee and...

[quote=solvang23] I would love if one of the better specialist reissue labels reissued this album on 180 gram vinyl, mastered by Kevin Gray or Chris Bellman. I have actually mentioned it to two labels so far but I have not got any positive reactions....
