The Walrus posted:anyone else thinking of getting that Beatles singles set? Usually a 7" box set is a definite no-go, but new mono masters + the international art + only like ~9 CDN per vinyl makes it tempting. Unless you're a big Beatles fan and your want something as a physical piece, this set doesn't really hold much value. As CP said, you can get Mono Masters. Hell, the mono boxset is an even better way to go since you also get all of their albums except for Abby Road and Let It Be, which you can easily pick up. But I wouldn't but that set for the music, which sounds like an odd thing to say.

Of interest to this thread: Nicolas Winding Refn's streaming site just posted 4k restorations of a bunch of post/punk music videos. Deaf/Punk (1979) Dir. Richard Gaikowski In the Beginning Was the End: The Truth About De-Evolution (1976) Dir. Chuck Statler The Residents: Third Reich ‘N’ Roll (1976) Dir. The Residents The Residents: Hello, Skinny (1979) / One Minute Movies (1980) Dir. Graeme Whifler MX-80 Sound: Why Are We Here? (1980) Dir. Graeme Whifler Renaldo and the Loaf: Songs for Swinging Larvae (1981) Dir. Graeme Whifler In the Red (1978, unfinished) Dirs. Liz Keim and Karen Merchant Moody Teenager (1980) Dir. Richard Gaikowski Debt Begins at 20 (1980) Dir. Stephanie Beroes The new restoration of the (immediately banned from MTV) Renaldo and the Loaf video is absolutely gorgeous.

I would love to have the mono boxset, but have you seen how much it's going for? I bought copies of revolver and rubber soul separately but it's just those and mono masters still in print for mono vinyl.

Discogs has Rubber Soul for 34.99 Merican dollars. edit: I looked up Sgt. Pepper and it appears they they might just be taking all of the mono reissues out of print. I wonder why.

CPL593H posted:Discogs has Rubber Soul for 34.99 Merican dollars. My guess is to keep them desirable and to have less product. It's really lovely when you think about it. The original mixes of these records shouldn't be so rare, and it's not like the stereo on those things was good stereo. In a few years, they'll probably reissue the mono sets again, so you can hear the Beatles the way they were meant to be heard.

There are also those anniversay box sets and Giles Martin remixes they've been putting out. So many it's to shift people towards buying that stuff. I have the Revolver mono reissue LP but none of the rest. I never prioritized getting these because I've listened to those albums 90 million times and rarely put them on anymore. That said I got the mono CDs for Rubber Soul - The Bealtes Part I and II as well as mono masters and they sound really good so I'm not really kicking myself over it. The 2009 CD reissues were a godsend.

I suddenly want a database collecting every example of someone ripping off the pose on Micheal Jackson' Thriller cover. Mostly because I think I remember a young, male, and possibly latin pop singer doing it as well but I don't know if my brain is playing tricks on me.

I was sorta sure the cover got internet famous for being terrible, and I probably did see it on one of those worst of lists years ago. Still curious as to how many people have done that pose to try and sell more albums based on sex appeal I guess?

I thought that the remastering job Criterion did for Jocko Homo/Secret Agent Man was great, but this is a whole other league. Love that MX-80 Sound video, too. Spoke with Rich Stim a while back about the filming of it when I was putting the reissues of Crowd Control and Out of the Tunnel together. Great dude.

It would be pretty great if Criterion did a blu-ray that collects the Devo music videos because the only current collections look like dogshit. Did they ever do another music video compilation like they did for the Beastie Boys?

In other news I bought an original pressing of The Danny Elfman Batman soundtrack and the dealer said it went to Dubai and back twice. And then the buyer never asked for a refund on the record or the shipping or anything. He gave me a good deal on it and also said that I paid less for the record itself than that buyer did for shipping.

CPL593H posted:How long has everyone been collecting? I only have 50 and none of them are ~rare~ or collectible. A couple of my King Gizzard records are apparently selling for double to triple what I paid for them, but otherwise they're all worth less than what I paid thanks to the Australian Dollar. Not to mention that apparently it costs people $25 to ship an LP to Australia from the US/Europe. And the secondhand market here is tiny/overpriced (at least on Discogs for the albums I actually want), so I only have 4 secondhand 70s prog albums. Unfortunately, one was mis-rated as VG+ when I'd say it's Fair at best.
