Any of these albums of audiophile (as opposed to collector) quality? Things like the new Fountains of Wayne or Nick Lowe's Jesus of Pop?

 

180 gram pressings, that's all I know.
Each title includes a free digital download of the entire album.
Don't know about shipping charges. Regardless, there's a few titles that whet my whistle - time to spend some coin.

 

Yeah, there are titles I'd definitely buy if these are sonic upgrades. But I already own, for example, nice minty original pressings of the Nick Lowe stuff. So there's no reason to buy these (for me) except sound...

 

I ordered the Labour of Lust record. I liked the job Yep Roc did on the CD!

 

Likewise, I have quite a few original Lowe releases - none of his latest stuff though, and I don't have Jesus of Cool in vinyl, so it looks as though I will make at least one Lowe purchase.
I did come across The Sadies: Darker Circles in vinyl which I purchased from Yep in one of their previous sales. It's a very nicely packaged gatefold, and the vinyl is flat (as in non-warped) and DEAD QUIET (as opposed to my recent purchase of Norah Jones ...Little Broken Hearts, which is full of pops and ticks that completely overpowers the music ).
There is an inscription in the deadwax of The Sadies ..."Trutone Mastering Labs, NY", if that tells you anything.
So if The Sadies pressing is any indication of the quality of Yep's other releases in vinyl, I will have to say "Go Fer It"
Good luck.

I couldn't resist. I also own originals, but...

55 $ 4 LP's with P&P.
I hope customs don't mind.

 

FYI it's still working as of this morning. Just picked up two Nick Lowe's. thank you for the head's up!!

 

Got my records yesterday....Jesus of Cool on two colored discs, Labour of Lust and The Soft Boys -- I forgot how much fun it is buying records!

 

I got mine as well (Bell X1 and John Wesley Harding) -- the latter has been listened to / needle dropped and I'm very happy with that one. Bell X1 is TBD.
