Wait, the Albini mix or whatever?

Nah, I've already got the Albini mix (which I got for $25, also a good price). This is the 45-rpm version of the original mix, plus b-sides; previous low price on Amazon was $40.

Well fucking done, mang.

Do you have a preference on the mix? If one was to only purchase one of those things which would you recommend?

Lemme know, mang. I haven't picked up either yet. And I'd be into grabbing one or the other.

What kind of speakers are those?

I just sold a lawn mower I inherited with my house for $350....is there anything on RSD I should be blowing my bounty on? I haven't even looked at the list.

Everything is so specialized with RSD now that I don't think there are any marquee titles that everyone's gunning for, so it'd be best to look at the list. My local store is going to hold the latest Kozelek repress for me, and I'll rifle through the bins, but I'm not looking for anything else in particular.

If you don't want to deal with all the drama around RSD, here's what I would do: go to ccmusic.com with your wantlist in hand and do some searching. Use the code "APR1520" to get 20% off an order over $50. You can probably average $15-$17 per release and there's reasonable shipping.

Its funny you mention the Kozelek release, thats the only one that really got my attention.

1700 isn't a crazy-low number, so you've got a shot.

not sure i like the speakers lifted off the ground that much.

Look, Skitch, its all about how it looks maybe. Also, i not sure the sound or my experience is enhanced that much.

Hmm.

I purchased a couple 15" x 15" cubes to bring the speakers up off the floor to more ear level. Not sure it makes a difference. Makes the music listening station appear more cluttered and not sure it really makes a difference in listening pleasure.
