I was at Rough Trade yesterday -- pre-Christmas activities -- and I was about to buy four records. I had them in hand. Then I looked and realized I was about to spend $176.... I put them all back and didn't buy anything.

Oh sweet!
Sorry I missed your previous posts. I've been kinda out of it lately. But still, very cool. I'm a little jealous.

Totally. Same.
Idler Wheel and Bolt Cutters both sound amazing. But that's all I have to go on. Neither really has much of a booklet.

Depending on price, I'd say it's super worth it. Phenomenal album (obviously) and sounds soooooo good on wax.

I have all her albums. I have the original VMP pressings of Tidal and When The Pawn, so no idea how it would differ compared to the widely available repressing. But they sound great. I have the original EM and Idler pressings so can’t comment on represses but I’d imagine they are quite similar so feel free to ask about anything there. You can find Fetch for pretty cheap, they made so many color variants of that they are everywhere. It often goes on sale

yeah, well i mostly buy vinyl in Argentina, so sometimes is not that easy to get variants or whataver. Vinyl is indeed, pretty much everywhere again here, but is becoming really expensive.
Who would have known back in the 2000 that we would have so many record stores again in 2023?

Same for Mexico, unfortunately.
Last minute X-mas shopping put a hurt on my budget. The money I spent on 3 new records in Tijuana would've easily gotten me 5 via Amazon delivered in US.

Possibly their worst release, but one of the few that I didn't have in my collection
