bootleg vinyl is never worth it. at best they are just ripping a CD (or FLAC) and cutting it into a vinyl, at worst it could even be an MP3. and modern contemporary vinyl quality is shoddy enough as it is, a bootleg unauthorized vinyl is more likely to have physical problems, meaning noisy shitty sounding vinyl. save your money.
I do have a really crappy bootleg of Hot Fuss by The Killers from when I thought I was gonna meet Brandon Flowers. Awful quality vinyl all around
I got what (I believe) is a bootleg Life Aquatic soundtrack. All the Bowie songs covered by Seu Jorge and while it's not the best quality it is definitely a keeper for me. So glad I got it. Had to order it from Germany or somewhere in Europe. When it took weeks longer to arrive than it should have I complained and they refunded me. Then a few days later it showed up in the mail. So in the end I got a free bootleg so it was worth it.
I've definitely heard bad things about bootlegs in the past but I couldn't pass this one up.
Signed up for vinyl me please for the MMJ vinyl. It is my first one from them.
Same here (thanks beebee) and I can't wait to get it. I own the record already but I am excited for this and it's a good excuse to finally make me take the plunge into VinylMePlease. I think it was smellycat who I first heard about it from......could be wrong on that. Either way, it's always seemed like a great deal. I already do most of the Third Man Vault releases which is $60 a quarter but for VMP I get 3 full records for around that much.

so many jokes here
i'm just gonna settle on "I suppose bootleg vinyl is the quality of vinyl Brandon Flowers deserves as a person and a musician"

Haha I was gonna get it signed and didn't realize it was bootleg when I purchased it (eBay where else). The sleeve is the thinnest cardboard imaginable and the picture quality on the sleeve is that of a potato

I actually was a member last year. Got some really good ones. And I didn't even know you could swap one a quarter so that makes it even more worthwhile.

yes! it was the father john misty limited edition record they did! I stayed on it for about 5 months, but had to cancel my subscription once I got into grad school. it was really fun to receive a new record every month - like a little monthly xmas present (to yourself).
random blab about VMP: I don't get out to record stores frequently enough, mostly because every time I do go I spend way too much money, so I generally try to avoid places where I can blow my money because my ADHD makes me incredibly impulsive; so it was nice to slowly build my record collection with one selection per month. that being said (and I haven't kept up with their inventory super closely over the last year) it does seem like they have gotten a little obscure / narrowed with their selections. I wish you could choose your own preference of genres to receive more relevant selections. it's cool that they're all some sort of limited edition record, but for someone like me, getting/paying for j dilla donuts was just not up my alley. I would continue to pay if it was more curated.

A Glorious Dawn (12" VINYL) Limited Edition record from Icarus launch. A moving arrangement taken from Carl Sagan's magnificent "Cosmos" series comes on very special etched vinyl.
In case you missed it last week, Third Man launched and played this record in space, the first of its kind. Check out the story!

Damn, that's pretty. I have the original release from TMR but it's not a limited/fancy looking one like that. Pretty cool.
Visiting the physical Third Man Records is a bucket list item for me.

I think the store is pretty damn cool! Cut your own record, do the photo booth, check out their records, buy a few novelties... You go to Bonnaroo every year, right? You should swing by on your way!

Yea, I've meant to. Usually just go right from airport to Bonnaroo the past few years so it hasn't been a priority. I should make it one, though.

Yeah, it'd be a quick and easy stop from there. You'd enjoy it!

Jack White Acoustic Recordings 1998-2016 (DOUBLE LP)
JACK WHITE ACOUSTIC RECORDINGS 1998-2016 collects 26 acoustic songs from throughout White’s wide-ranging musical career, spanning album tracks, B-sides, remixes, alternate versions, and previously unreleased tracks. The album, arranged in chronological order, includes acoustic songs made famous by The White Stripes, beginning with “Sugar Never Tasted So Good” (originally found on The White Stripes’ second-ever 7-inch single) and then lighting upon favorites like “Apple Blossom” and “I’m Bound To Pack It Up” (remixed here from the original recordings on 2000’s DE STIJL), “Hotel Yorba” and “We’re Going To Be Friends” (from 2001’s WHITE BLOOD CELLS), “You’ve Got Her In Your Pocket” and “Well It’s True That We Love One Another” (from 2003’s GRAMMY® Award-winning ELEPHANT), “Forever For Her (Is Over For Me),” “White Moon” and “As Ugly As I Seem” (from 2005’s GET BEHIND ME SATAN) “Effect & Cause” (from 2007’s ICKY THUMP), and the Beck-produced “Honey, We Can’t Afford To Look This Cheap,” first found on the B-side to The White Stripes’ final single, 2007’s “Conquest.”
“City Lights” (below) was written for The White Stripes’ GET BEHIND ME SATAN but then forgotten until White revisited the 2005 album for Third Man’s Record Store Day 2015 vinyl reissue and finished the recording in 2016. The track is the first new, worldwide commercially released White Stripes song since 2008.
Also featured are “Never Far Away” (recorded for 2003’s COLD MOUNTAIN: MUSIC FROM THE MIRAMAX MOTION PICTURE) and “Love Is The Truth” (written and recorded for Coca-Cola’s 2006 What Goes Around campaign) as well as the Bluegrass Version of “Top Yourself” and an acoustic mix of the epic murder ballad, “Carolina Drama,” both written by White and Brendan Benson for The Raconteurs’ GRAMMY® Award-winning 2008 album, CONSOLERS OF THE LONELY. White’s two chart-topping solo albums, 2012’s BLUNDERBUSS and 2014’s LAZARETTO, are represented by a remarkably diverse range of material including “Love Interruption,” “On And On And On,” “Blunderbuss,” “Entitlement,” “Want And Able,” and alternative mixes of “Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy,” “Just One Drink,” “I Guess I Should Go To Sleep,” and B-side, “Machine Gun Silhouette.”
“This, like (Son House’s) ‘Grinnin’ In Your Face,’ is mirror-music,” writes renowned music journalist Greil Marcus of “City Lights” in the album’s exclusive liner notes, “the singer talking to himself, trying to tell himself the truth, which he’s going to need if he’s going to step out of his door, walk into the world, and fool himself, for just a second, that he’s ready to take it on. As you listen, it’s no surprise at all that it took most of White’s music-making life to bring the song home.”
The 26 tracks featured on JACK WHITE ACOUSTIC RECORDINGS 1998-2016 were remastered by Andrew Mendelson at Nashville, TN’s Georgetown Masters. All songs were written and produced exclusively by Jack White, except “Never Far Away” (produced by T Bone Burnett), “Honey, We Can’t Afford To Look This Cheap” (produced by Beck), “Top Yourself (Bluegrass Version)” and “Carolina Drama” (written & produced by White & Brendan Benson), and “Machine Gun Silhouette” (written by White & Rob Jones). The complete track listing is below.
SIDE A Sugar Never Tasted So Good Apple Blossom (Remixed) I’m Bound To Pack It Up (Remixed) Hotel Yorba We’re Going To Be Friends You’ve Got Her In Your Pocket Well It’s True That We Love One Another Never Far Away
SIDE B Forever For Her (Is Over For Me) White Moon As Ugly As I Seem City Lights (Previously Unreleased White Stripes Track) Honey, We Can’t Afford To Look This Cheap Effect & Cause
SIDE C Love Is The Truth (Acoustic Mix) Top Yourself (Bluegrass Version) Carolina Drama (Acoustic Mix) Love Interruption On And On And On Machine Gun Silhouette (Acoustic Mix)
SIDE D Blunderbuss Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy (Alternate Mix) I Guess I Should Go To Sleep (Alternate Mix) Just One Drink (Acoustic Mix) Entitlement Want And Able

So I went into to grab Thee Oh Sees new record (which I did and it sounds amazing), but ended up nabbing one of my most epic hauls to date. There was just so much stuff that was in my 'purchase on the spot' list.
So along with A Weird Exits, here's what I picked up: T. Rex - Electric Warrior (Been looking for this one for a good while, and it was only $15) Kevin Morby - Harlem River And then check out this trifecta of Hip-Hop masterworks!!! Nas - Illmatic, J Dilla - Donuts, and Madvilliany
Needless to say, I have some business to attend to...
I highly recommend Michael Kiwanuka's "Love & Hate" on vinyl. It kind of adds a whole new element to the album. (Trying not to sound douchy or hipster when posting this)
