Thanks for the Emily Remler tip! Listening now and she's fantastic.

Recently bought The Who- Who's Next album from you. Had it cleaned by you all. Thank you! Sounds great! Ordered another album from you all today as the first experience went so well.

Some very solid titles here. I am not unexcited.

[michaelbrodybroshears]

Really excited about the Better Than Ezra and Thievery Corporation records. Thank you for the low-down on a couple of the jazz releases, too. Appreciate your videos, always.

Thanks for the Doors tip much appreciated 👍. Greg

[APaulMyers]

Thanks, Mike. And so glad you joined the bald head club! Looks good.

I always think the list is great and I have 5-10 titles that are always on my list. It is the same for next month too.

[LPS-R-US]

A little touch of Gray, Kevin gray always good 👍

My question is regarding the beatles is the all my loving 3 inch...in april the mini turntable, yellow case, four 3 inch singles were available boxed together. Now with the 5th 3 inch and case...is the case the same? The same audience would want all my loving but if the case is yellow, the collector would have 2 duplicate cases. Btw both black friday rsd beatles releases are rsd firsts, meaning they will be available eventually elsewhere.

I'm excited for the Joe Bataan- Riot RSD release. There are some good soul titles this time around

[FleagleSangria]

Looking forward to The Doors Live also. That is a good sounding show and performance. Looks like a sweet package. Curious about how Betty will sound and reviews on that one.

We used to have record stores here in White Plains NY but now only have Newburry Comics in the nearby mall. the closest real record store with new stuff is either in New Jersey, CT or all the way up in Poughkeepsie over an hour away by car and I don't drive.

I'm looking forward to when our local store drops the prices like mad at christmas time. There is always great stuff left over because my town is so small that if it's not Beatles or Van Morrison, then no one cares. I was kinda shocked I was able to buy 3 copies of that Sweethearts Of The Rodeo album for only $36 each. Regular price was $99.99 the day of.

[MaterLacrymarum]

Three titles I'm interested in, and you only mentioned one of them. Yes, Fragile Outtakes is a must. Along with that, the King Missile will be a blast from the past (though I really crave their self-titled from 1994). But my "must have" is the Jazz Sabbath release.

[michaelkurtz]

It’s a great list of amazing albums if I may say so myself!

[SpeedyMcGhee]

Mike, the new Coldplay EcoVinyl sounds great. I have the Billie Recycled Vinyl and yes it is not good. Check out the new Coldplay and see if you think it sucks (ignore whether you like the band or not).

[faustus]

Been a fan of Emily Remler since before she passed. Really stoked about this release.

[PickupthePieces]

I like certain soundtrack albums and High Fidelity is on my want list for Black Friday. Not sure if it's going to be a popular record to get, but it's not easy or cheap to get an existing copy I believe.

[terrapinj]

Charles Tolliver’s Live at Captain’s Cabin should be a good one and cut by Kevin Gray. Hey now ✌🏼

[jdapena]

Does Kevin Gray ever sleep...?? I mean, every Thursday, when the Acoustic Sounds and In Groove's video with the list or new releases comes out I go: "How many this week remastered by "Kevin": And it's a lot . Either he has a gang of "ghost-remasterers (as in ghost writers)" working like Santa's little helpers or the guy is a multi-tasking god who doesn't shut eye. How long does it take to remaster an album from the original master tape and then supervise the cut? It can't be twelve hours at this rate... Can you please Mike shed some light into this?
