VMP is expensive but you pay for quality. I do have a small VMP list of records I want, and I'll grab them slowly but surely. As far as the VMP orquesta akokon, I did order the daptone exclusive bundle with the 45, so I'll have to see if I really want a second copy. Good shit brotha man, you really are the reason why I'm pushing to build my collection. Much love and good vibes going your way.
The Don Bllackman album is 🔥🔥🔥. If you like boogie funk check out Maxx Traxx. The album has been reissued by Numero. The Original goes for around $800+
Looks your Don Blackman gatefold was folded improperly. The sides are uneven. I got my copy of Alice Coltrane and it was warped. I ordered a replacement and it was even more warped. Yay!!!!
My Coltrane was good. I did notice the fold on the gatefold jacket - but it must have been from the shipping - because it came back pretty easy and has stayed - I have had Tone Poets that actually were folded wrong and uneven and I couldn't get them fixed - good luck dealing with Bluenote/UME customer service aka - BOTS!
GZ is hot or miss - but they have been conistant for me with both VMP and a lot of the Indie labels I listen to as well. There are issues with those labels too - and sometimes there are not.
I saw the Don Blackman on Noble Records channel about two months ago. I actually swapped this out for the Alice Coltrane.
Love Dylan! He probably has my favorite collection I have seen that is both super rare/audiphile/and my kind of stuff.

The quality problem is the quality of the pressing. GZ sucks
