Got my copy yesterday. I love this album. It’s top tier GBV to me. Good pressing. Awesome packaging. There are only 3 or 4 songs per side, so you have to do a lot of flipping. I don’t mind though.
I don't know, I'm not familiar with the pricing history of this title. Amazon has the list price at $45.98 and Discogs has two M/M unopened copies for $39.99 and $40.00. Please try to post the price at the time the deal is posted in this thread, especially for Amazon deals that can change by the minute.
Sorry, I was posting as to the price being good in general. Posted here because I purchased from Amazon.
Walter Bishop - Keeper Of My Soul (Black Jazz/Real Gone Music) is down to $13.86 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09B5WVZLP I have almost every one of RG's BJ reissues and they're all quite nice.
This is now down to $13.02 for this super cool reissue of a rock solid mid-period Guided by Voices album. I'm listening right now, and it's not a perfect pressing. Has a dishwarp on disc 1 (The Michell clamp make short work of that though) and some background static, but it does sound quite nice. Certainly better than the CD. In case you're on the fence, this is what the very cool packaging looks like inside and out. Sorry about the sideways images. This is actually a decent jumping in point for folks who are not really familiar with Guided by Voices. For $13.02, take the plunge!
That seems to be a common perception, however there is a boatload of quality mixed in with the quantity.
Thank you Dewey M. GBV’s Glad Girls, indeed. Love the song, love the vid. How can anyone pass this by?? A fabulous album by one of the great bands of the modern age ( whenever that might be ) ! ! !

OFF-TOPIC - Not Amazon, but wanted to call it out. Jazz singer Samara Joy is one of my favorites, I've seen her live on both coasts. Her album 'Linger Awhile' has been expanded with eight additional tracks. Available on 'Deluxe Edition CD' from Amazon and others, but the 8 new songs are a stand-alone vinyl release that's exclusive to her web-store. Also, if you missed her private-pressed first LP, that's been reissued finally on colored wax. ================================================= Seen on Amazon today - deals are tough to find today ...

This should appeal to fans of Bill Frisell, who also appears on the album. However, be warned, at about 25 minutes it is on the short side!
Dexter Gordon, "Sophisticated Giant" LP, $15.19: https://www.amazon.com/Sophisticated-Giant-Dexter-Gordon/dp/B07G1V9PWJ/ ("Eleven-piece band playing tunes arranged by trombone player Slide Hampton", so maybe a little smoother than you might expect.)

Bayou Country is back up. I risked getting a different version and ordered on the 15th even though it was out of stock. It showed up today and is the SH/KG. Jumped on Amazon and it’s in stock
I love the spirit and goodwill you bring to this thread. Makes me check out new music I would not otherwise hear. Cheers!
Here's one that arrived today... Amazon.com David Sylvian & Stephen Mathieu, their 2012 album released on vinyl for the first time. The release date seems odd as does the shipping date because mine was a preorder that I placed a couple months ago. Double clear vinyl ambient goodness for $15.99.

Amazon.com .... if you like that deal, you're going to LOVE this legitimate EBay seller selling the same set in the USA for $14.99 plus $3.65 shipping.
