I'm going for the Super Fly on metallic gold x 2 copies. The recent remasted on Rhino is getting raves by some (better than the MFSL), and the Walmart is likely to be the same mastering. Not much else I need right now. The two Queen album on colored vinyl look attractive and collectible, but I don't know. Opera is a great album I already own several copies of including 1978 Dutch white vinyl, and MFSL original. So need to pass on queen I think, and Elton - Madman looks cool, but is missing a real cover, so that blows.
The Run Out Groove cut by Kevin Gray is a 2 record set, the Walmart gold looks to have been cut by Ron McMaster. Curtis Mayfield - Superfly Curtis Mayfield - Super Fly (The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
The Red Hot Chili Peppers Blood Sugar Sex Magik unsurprisingly, is the sweet sounding Bernie Grundman cut. Buy with total confidence. The Californication IS NOT the Chris Bellman cut. Sounds pretty good to me though.
I don't think we've talked about these before. All from Walmart (sold by Deep Discount): Cranberries 'Dreams' greatest hits - just $7.92 with free shipping Robot or human? This is pretty cool. Andrew Lloyd Webber - Symphonic Suites - 2LP - 3 sides, the 4th is etched. List price is $70, down to $24 at Deep Discount, just $8.67. Looks like a great Christmas Gift for the record collector you never know what to get. Robot or human? This has been around forever, on MoV, but it's worth the money, IMO. Junkie XL / Tom Holkenborg's soundtrack to 'Paranoia', just $7.11: Robot or human?
The Cranberries listing says "vinyl" after the title but in the description it shows it as a CD with CD dimensions
Thanks for letting us know this, as I was definitely interested in purchasing this. I just went through this with other items that were advertised cheaply on WalMart's website. I had purchased 2 discounted items last week on WalMart's website (Jimi Hendrix 'Both Sides Of The Sky' and Destroyer 'Have We Met') that were advertised as "vinyl", and both were CD's when delivered. (Both were sold by WalMart directly, and not through Deep Discount.) Returns were very easy though if you have a WalMart in your area, so it might be worth taking a chance for some folks. I do have to say though, the majority of the previously-discussed items (mostly the ones that were also listed on Deep Discount's Blowout Bin, and sold by DD on WalMart's website) were vinyl records as advertised. Some great deals there.
I think I've seen it. But I have the RSD single disc mastered by Kevin Gray and I'm not a big enough War fan to see myself spending $40 for a 2-disc set mastered by someone else.
For those that don't already know, the GH is the only time Kevin has used a tube setup. Said so on camera a few weeks ago.
Didn't see a "Blood Sugar Sex Magik" at the Walmart a few miles from my house, but I did pick up "Kill 'Em All" and a German pressed Stone Temple Pilots "Core" (I've read the German press is better than the Italian pressed of the Walmart STPs)
According to the Collecting Queen page on Facebook (it's been a reliable source in the past), Queen's The Game is going to get the Wal-mart colored vinyl treatment. It will be silver, with the release date scheduled for October 7. It's not available for pre-order yet.
I saw some comments here that suggest some people weren't happy with the mastering (not the pressing quality) of the made-in-Germany "sunshine yellow" Walmart version of "Chicago's Greatest Hits." I purchased it for $19.97 and was very pleased with it -- although I think that could be because it sounds to me like the original Columbia LP, as opposed to the way these same songs sounded on the LPs on which they were first released. Anyone here have any thoughts on this release? (My yellow-vinyl copy is dead quiet but does have an annoying skip in "Saturday in the Park," so I will have to seek out a replacement copy.)
