Vaguely interested in the Green River demos. The only one I'll be hunting down is the Jason Molina 7'' (which I ordered through an IndieGogo campaign almost 2 year ago, and then the project was cancelled and they never refunded us).

They're typically just pressed from mp3s or radio sources. Same thing as listening to them on your computer

Weekend pickups:

– The Stooges "Fun House"
– Bowie "Hunky Dory" (recent release)
– Bowie "Blackstar" (found used for $12. worth trying.)

Fiona Apple "Idler Wheel".
She's my wife's favorite, and I always kicked myself for not grabbing it for $20 when I could. And her birthday is next month so it works out, but still.

pearl jam should take a cue from phish as it relates to reissues. the albums are remastered well, the vinyl sounds great, and the packaging is excellent. the price stings a bit - averaging $50 new for 2lp sets, including the upcoming hoist - but when the quality is top-notch, it stings a lot less.
ah, copperplate, a font for the truly modern man.

It's sort of shocking how high the quality of the vault releases has been in comparison to the reissues of Ten through Vitalogy. It's not like they're unlistenable or anything, but they're also nowhere near pristine.
