CAPITOL/EMI TO RELEASE "GOOD VIBRATIONS"/"HEROES AND VILLAINS" 78 RPM

[Runaways]

well when stamps, coins, paintingss and figurines can do more than just sit on a shelf, let me know.

If you really don't care for records as collectable objects, if it's only about the music, than you might as well sell every CD and record you own and replace them with a hard drive full of MP3s...

made a big assumption that wasn't even in any of my posts.

Ok, now I'm confused....

My freshly arrived copy, which I bought off Discogs and had been picked up from a record shop in Leeds, is numbered 7363.

Go to the Record Store Day website, however, and it says only 5000 will be pressed.....


Have I missed something, or are they bootlegging these things??

[Shady]

That's been covered, it seems they pressed way more than 5 thousand

No. 4471 just arrived on my doorstep!  

....though now i'm currently awaiting the arrival of the record player that can actually play it

edit: wowwww, the 2nd one, with the Good Vibes early take and alt. Heroes and Villians has the labels mixed up. nice job Capitol!

Yeah, onatrain posted he had one numbered 6,300 or something. I guess I have the highest numbered one on the board?

Georgefellintohishorn, if that is your real name, on the last page is a link I posted to a simple mod you can make to your turntable so you can play it! It's not designed for 78 needles, but regular ones instead, as discussed earlier in the thread... I'll try it myself next week, but it seems simple enough.

At long last mine has arrived. All the way from Amoeba Records to me

No. 4028. It really is beautiful, and the SMilE coming soon promo has me really excited.

something I forgot to ask: 
was the double ten inch set released in countries outside the USA main?
 If so, did they use USA copies or versions for each country where it was sold? and if they were Non-USA manufactured, was the nu,mbering separate from the USA 5000/whatever?

I got my copy today. Ordered it at my local shop, but it's a U.S. import. And a relatively low number: 1004 (if that means anything at all, music's the same anyway). Bummer though was that I ordered 2 copies, but only one was delivered. But it seemed that an additional order is still possible (which I did of course).

One to keep sealed, the other to open?
One for you main house, one for the summer house? 
One fo you, one for the wife? 
Do tell...   

[smile-holland]

one for me, and one for a friend of mine  (and now that you say it, I should have ordered an extra one, just for kicks)

I was at a record store in COlumbus Ohio today.  Asked them if they had the Foo Fighters Medium Rare, they told me they never recieved it.  Asked about the Beach Boys 78, and they said they had a bunch , but sold out with a line out the door.

Thought that was cool.

Dunno… haven't opened it yet – only just got the deck set up that I bought just after Christmas!  I'll need to make some adjustments before it can play 78rpms…
