Blue Crack Distributor
$35 and then with shipping and tax it's nearly $50 from the U2 site. I'm hoping what I was told in another thread is true and there's going to be a Target release for these , because I really want that blue Zooropa.
Ooooooooh hell yeah. I was skeptical at first reading it because I don't want something FlyLo wasn't involved with, but it looks like they worked with them. I've liked the idea of Vinyl Me Please, maybe now it's time to sign up./
Honestly, I think the whole sound thing is overrated and potentially a complete crock of shit. All my modern records sound great, but they don’t sound any better or worse than stuff I stream or play from my library (and I’ve got an Audio Techinca player hooked up to a Sonos). I think unless you’re a studio nerd who listens to music exceptionally closely it doesn’t make a difference. Pretty sure Axver has said this before, but with the natural uncertainties you get with vinyl (your needle might not be set up perfectly, cracks and pops, individual vinyl issues, atmospheric stuff like dust etc) if great sound is the main reason you’re getting vinyl I think you’re better off getting digital versions.
I'm curious to know if the HTDAAB vinyl improves on the mastering at all. Everyone made fun of Metallica for how unbelievably shitty the Death Magnetic CD sounded, but they fixed some of the issues for the vinyl because, had they left the levels where they were, the record would have exploded.
