    I like the album- not sure I like it for $40-50 dollars. I may just try and pick up the blu-ray audio. between this sale and target still debating what to pull the trigger on for my next order.

    Stepped away from this forum after many years,since having the audacity to post a deal, and not fully researching if there was an open thread on the seller..the bitchiness of the mod and his followers took me by surprise..

    There are lots of earlier UK pressings on discogs One in fairly decent shape might be $30-$40 shipped to the US. The vinyl wasn’t that quiet on early UK copies anyway.

    The MFSL is a typical old school MFSL pressing. Tipped up top and bottom ends, but quiet vinyl. Not worth it IMO.

    I like the Speakers Corner and the early UK’s best (never heard the UHQR) but they are different beasts. One is more “modern polite audiophile”; the other has a little more edge and bite.

    I hate you thetman!! You had to go obi-wan on me. . .
    RUSH Hemispheres super deluxe 130
    Elvis Live 1969 105
    Police Every Move you Make 125

    270 after tax and discounts so $90 each.

    I needed Elvis, but did I really need these others?? Sigh. Thankfully I have a lot of Amazon points :D

    But thanks for the heads up on this sale. Elvis 1969 was not included initially in the sale. Definitely adding some things over the course of the night.

    Bowie 74-76 box is included. Wish they had 77-82.

    Oh BTW, Keith Richards Talk is Cheap remastered LP down under $12 again... $11.59 when I bought it.

    Marillion - Live At Cadogan Hall Region free Germany blu ray $10.25-$10.30 delivered to the USA from Europe.

    It includes the entire Cadogan album in 2.0 & 5.1 96/24 with Video; + Less Is More audio only in 96/24 2.0 & various videos. Cadogan may very well be their best live album with Hogarth, & this is the only place I've seen less Is More in 24 bit (Less Is More adds Cannibal Surfer Babe which is not on the USA cd & subtracts Runaway & Fake Plastic Trees from the USA cd).

    Screaming Deal, & I gladly paid a bit more.

    Also on Amazon.co.uk for about a fiver which may suit some, depending on shipping. As it's region free there's no concerns about incompatibility.

    the power of the sale compels you! so you got an Elvis set for free, thats awesome.
    seriously if I didn't have a lot of the box sets listed I would be all over this. They have things like the beatles stereo box set, mono masters etc. If you have any type of amazon credit laying around and don't have/or want some these box sets then its a no brainer really.

    And as noted above, there are many more titles at Target included in the B2G1 offer. Picked up the Dire Straits S/T MoFi SACD as part of an order. . .

    Love over gold was only listed for a brief period on Amazon. Communique is still up there but OOS. I think those two plus S/T are available at Target

    I can't get the search options on Buy2 get1 to show meaningful/useful results.

    There is a drop box, if on the app, to filter by department, and music is one of those. It's likely similar on the website.

    I'm on the website. In music, there are almost no options other than cd's & vinyl. (very few SACD, blu audio, etc) In movies, most categories have no listings, even though there are over 1500 total. Example in movies: I saw a Star Trek on the 1st page, but Amazon says there is nothing in Science Fiction if I click on that.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Since I typed the above. I've read on another board that others are experiencing similar. Seems that Amazon has limited the functionality of their search engine. The did some recent site changes; this seems to be one of them.

    Took me a while but browzed and bought 9 cds.

    Some interesting stuff when you dig.

    Every time I pressed more to move on to the next group of CDs I would inadvertently. Touch something and then have to start all over again. It was a real bummer. But I got through it. And I think I made some interesting purchases.


    Thanks all for the tip on the sale.

    How do I get to this thread? (Wish you'd supplied the hyperlink w/post.) I've tried about 4 searches on general community, w/out a specific forum & again, under Long & Winding Forum. I've also entered search term twice, since I've noticed that seems to be an IT-glitch; that often if I enter a search once it doesn't come up, repeat it & wha-lah! Okay to PM me w/this info. Thank You! :tiphat:

    Thanks for the heads up on the B2G1 sale!

    That's odd. It's on the Long and Winding Thread... right at the top because of how long and winding it is. Anyway.... here it is!

    PS: I don't find the forum search facility very helpful most of the time. It's probably me doing it wrong, but it just brings up stuff I'm NOT looking for. Much better results simply using Google!
