2/28/69 is $65 at Amazon right now and Saint of Circumstance is $73, looks like Bezos is having a yard sale today.

Those Fillmore 69s are so good.  Can't wait until the next one comes out.

Got the latest RSD Jazz Dispensary, Orange Sunset, and it?s sweet, smooooooth grooves.

Ordered from a random shop in Charleston and it and the RSD Grandaddy record I ordered showed up a week later and in perfect shape. They didn?t send a shipping confirmation so I was a little worried, but glad I ordered from them as the Grandaddy was proving to be tough.

So glad I was able to snag a All The Good Times are Past and Gone.  Been watching an eBay auction that just ended at $335 and the only one on Discogs is like $425!!  Anybody know how many the pressed?

All Good the Times isn't numbered so I'm not sure how many there were. Heat'll die down eventually.

Just saw on Instagram that they're working on a repress of All The Good Times in the wake of the Grammy nod.

Just found this, haven?t watched yet but this guy took the Pepsi challenge with the new BN Classics releases.

^Pretty solid plug for the BN Classics series.

I bought a lot of those titles at $75 (MMJ / SRX) earlier this year, but stoked to upgrade the rest.

I've really been digging these Black Jazz reissues from RealGone

Finally dropped a needle on my Sigma Oasis. I got the retail version via Amazon rather than the Dry Goods pressing. I've seen reports of noise in the DG version. Anyone here experience that?

Spun the DG version yesterday, sounded fine, no pops or noise.  Clear and beautiful.  Forgot about the cool jam out Everything?s Right.  Par excellence.

I'll be giving mine a first spin on Wednesday. I'll report back.

Mine is quiet.  Heard Matt from HFB complaining about his.  And Hicks' has a huge scratch on it.

Yeah, Matt?s not happy. Might be returning outright and copping the retail version.

Yeah pretty bad gash, but it sounded good otherwise. One of the deeper scratches I?ve gotten on a new record. 

Just sent them an email asking for an exchange.

Yep, it's frustrating.  We traded some war stories on all the bad vinyl we have gotten from DG.  This is the first DG vinyl I have purchased since the great Fuego debacle of 2014 and I was pleasantly surprised to receive one without a single issue.
