Interesting, although I won't be buying one, but I will spin my mint copy of LA Woman tomorrow.. ( It's late here in Reno ). Good to see your channel, Rachel mentioned you to me. JT

I'm In With It Fluffy!! I Think It Will Be Amazing!! Love The Packaging!!!

[@fluffyrecords]

Wooooo Dan!! 👏😁

I love LA Woman! Probably my second favorite Doors after their debut album. This is exciting news, but not sure I can spare the $125 pre-order price, though. The original packaging makes it especially tempting!

[@fluffyrecords]

@@MarkMorris-1962 Right!! That’s how I felt too with the price. I’ve bought UHQRs in the past, and never had any issue plus this is my favorite band + album of theirs so buying this is a no brainer for me 😅

I pre-ordered it. Like you I have the double 45 and it’s really good. I have the white label promo and a regular stock copy, they all sound good. The differences between them all are minimal depending on the system you’re playing them on.

[@fluffyrecords]

@@VinylPiper that’s awesome! It would be cool to own an original, but I’m glad that the uhqr is coming out. I’ve been wanting a 33rpm copy for some time now. Thank you for letting me know about the sound differences between your copies & thank you for watching 👍

Fluffy, I salute you!

@@chaunceyphillips Thanks Chauncey!!

Don't forget to add tax & shipping to the acquisition cost(s) - so over $150 for just one disc; the box should feel like it's a value add; now they've changed the box and it feels more about cost savings than lead time of getting them. Overall, I found this a better choice than some of the more recent UHQR's, but still feels like they are trying to squeeze every drop out of the toothpaste tube rather than take risks for new reissue titles in this format. But hey, it's not my company. 🙂

[@fluffyrecords]

@@ConcertBuddie I should’ve taken the additional costs into consideration. I agree that it seems like they are milking the same reissues when there’s definitely other titles out there that deserve a quality reissue. We shall see if AP/Acoustic Sounds will start reissuing titles that will actually excite people. Thanks for watching, Chance!

Chad loves his FOMO and loves to say hesitate today and cry tomorrow. I guarantee these 4500 copies will sell out fast. I thought they would sell out during the pre-order stage but that didn't happen. UHQR's are overpriced but are my go-to editions when I play an album. Besides with vinyl since it is a wearable medium it doesn't hurt to have more than one good sounding copy of a favorite album.

[@fluffyrecords]

@@dgross2009 thanks for your input, Donald. From what I’ve noticed, the UHQRs don’t sell out during the pre-order stage, and sometimes a UHQR title stays in stock for months. It all depends on the quantity and if people are determined to pay up for this reissue. I’ve seen mixed feelings with this one online, but me personally this is a top favorite of mine. I’m with you on the fact that it doesn’t hurt to have more than one good sounding copy 👍. Cheers!

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

There is probably a 50% chance of me buying the UHQR which means that I probably will😊

[@fluffyrecords]

@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews Right on, Kenny! Thanks for watching! 😁

[@davepounds8924]

You should probably think hard before sending 125 dollars for the UHQR unless you want everything by the Doors Listen to Chads video and he says the best sounding is the one you already have!! I own the 45 RPM and won’t be buying the UHQR

[@fluffyrecords]

@@davepounds8924 You’re right, I don’t need two copies that sound the same. Therefore, if the 33 sounds just like the 45 (or even better), I’ll be keeping the 33 and sell the 45. Like I said, shelf space for the box isn’t a concern for me since I have a giant box to put in my box sets, so we’re talking about the speed at this point. I’ve been staying away from 45s these days and have been getting rid of most of my double 45s. 33rpm all the way for me. Thanks for watching!
