    It's the same pressing/jacket worldwide. But my memory tells me US distributed copies (both the stereo release and the mono RSD release) didn't get a download card previously. But I could be wrong - maybe I even got a download card with mine and forgot about it...

    Just keep in mind he doesn't have the full band with him if you are into the more rocking stuff!

    It's really great, probably my favorite EJ live album! But remember, like @Juggsnelson said, it's just him on piano and Ray Cooper on percussion.

    While on the Elton stuff this is an OK deal, not super but here's my take. Pretty decent later period Elton, he still rocks on this one and has some pretty decent ballads. Album jacket is gatefold and is not wasted. Also, includes two full size booklets (Lyrics & Scraps). Really, a nice overall tip of the hat to the original album from 1975.

    Elton John - The Captain and The Kid $25.36 (was like around $32)

    https://www.amazon.com/Captain-Kid-LP-Elton-John/dp/B0B2J6ZSXB/ref=sr_1_35?crid=21U0NCMHG250L&keywords=elton+john+vinyl&qid=1668711829&sprefix=elton+john+vinyl,aps,102&sr=8-35

    and then this:

    The better pricing deal is: Peachtree Road (2LP, side 4 is the bonus tracks) $27.59, however I'm just not a big fan of it, but it may be for you?

    Sadly with this being Amazon, your mileage probably will vary :(

    Actually, it PROBABLY won't vary. But it might.

    Got the new Alice Coletrane, Putah, it’s great. Like the above post it came in a box. But no mailer. LP is fine. Cover has a very small corner dent. Bouncing around in the box. They don’t need the box just put it in a mailer. Such a lottery feel on each LP order.

    I received Steely Dan Live! in a bag yesterday. All four corners were bent up really bad. Already returned it!

    I picked up a copy of the Steely Dan Live album at one of those Amazon/Target return stores. The corners were bent but it was still sealed and
    it cost me a whopping $6.

    They must send out the ones in a bag on purpose so they get returned and therefore keep the warehouse deals stocked up!!!! ;)

    (I accidentally posted this on the Amazon UK thread earlier today :rolleyes:)

    Not the most Earthshaking deal, but I really like the album (and the group - listening to it now) and the price is decent so I thought I'd post it here. Until I saw it in the background of one of the VC YouTube channels, I knew nothing about it despite the fact that I love the group.

    VERUCA SALT - American Thighs $22.99 PRIME ONE DAY (For those in Ohio, that means that if you order it today, you should get it tomorrow. If you order it tomorrow, you should get it the day after, etc...)
    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NWFE26S?psc=1&

    It is on the same label as its original release. This pressing comes from 2014, you can get later pressings on coloured vinyl if you want it. The mastering is by a fellow in Arizona, Roger Seibel. I know nothing about him, but the sound quality is decent. Won't make you hafta change your pants or anything, but above average.

    I really like the moody sound of her slightly atonal singing (this from someone who NEVER pays any attention to singers) I love the almost ShoeGaze sounding chords. The compositions are quite good. I really like the timing changes, and again, the overall moody sound. Great Alternative group!

    Looks like Amazon has started a 3-for-2 sale to match Target's!!!! In some cases, it's 3-for-2, but for others, there's a box to check to get a specific dollar amount off of the price (to match Target's 1/3 off price). I don't know why they require you to buy three items in some cases, but in others you can buy just one and get the appropriate (1/3) discount.

    I have a list on CamelCamelCamel's website of various Amazon items (mostly music, some blu rays), and when I clicked the Amazon links for a few of them, I saw the 3-for-2 info (or a specific dollar amount off if you check the box). I had checked a couple of hours ago thinking that Amazon would start trying to match Target's sale, but the sale wasn't going on then. They must have started it in the last hour or two.
