Richard Vandersteen Posted February 6, 2022 Posted February 6, 2022 My Swiss distributor Robert Merker sent me an album and what a surprise it is! Every cut on this double album is one Eneke and I would want to listen many more times. Titel SOB & THE CZYKS, A Soulful Journey, From Big Apple to Big Easy SG-001. Not inexpensive but very carefully done and great sounding. Check it out. Digital folks, eat your heart out as this will not be released in digital, in fact no digital equipment was allowed anywhere in the entire process! RV 5
ctsooner Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Maybe I can get to Johnny's to listen to it soon. Many I miss my vinyl badly.
bkeske Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Just checked Discogs. One seller has one available from Germany. $180.00. Hey, but free shipping 🙂 I spent almost that much for an album, so not outside the realm of possibilities. I need to sell that odd ball 45 I have worth about $500. Edited February 7, 2022 by bkeske
bkeske Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Silly me, they sell direct on their web site. About $86 USD.

TomicTime Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 i can see setting up a record importing business for one label with one artist, heck why not ? think of all the money we will save…….. ha….
Steve Edwards Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 So many records, so little time .............. & $
bkeske Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 I'm almost tempted, as there are only 500 being pressed, it could be worth a lot more over time. But, I don't buy LP's as an investment. Would love to hear it though.

ctsooner Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Way to go Bob!!!! hahahaha Has anyone used any of Shane Buettener's pressings? I've heard they too are outstanding, but curious.
TomicTime Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Pete - Yes, I have several Intervention Records from Shane - Guilded Palace of Sin - Flying Burrito Bros. and Night and Day - Joe Jackson, they are both superb ! As many might know, Shane has 7’s w 7 HPA amplifiers, Audioquest cables , etc… He’s a VanderKat ( copyright reserved ) Jim 2
TomicTime Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Y’all are VanderKatz , second copyright of the day…. 1

I could stretch to 2 or maybe 3 if it helps…. (One for me, on for SiL at least) Providing that the cost is not too extreme, and shipping is not stipulate expensive. I am not sure if the phone will work in the US. I did set up roaming,…but email or PMing here, might be the go. 15 hours ago, TomicTime said: … think of all the money we will save…….. ^^ Movie quote, “An attempt at humour I suppose?” 2 hours ago, Richard Vandersteen said: If you do, please take it somewhere with a table so you can hear what it really sounds like, LOL.

Per RV's comments, I would certainly like to have a copy.
