Red Vinyl Sounds Best

This record sounds way better than that overly-loud CD, and it's on nice, clean red vinyl too. Definitely the best version of this album to get.
Seeking Rare Vinyl in Charlotte

Came across this at a nearby store and was curious if it was worth it and if I should give it a shot. I pondered over it for a couple of days, but by then, the records were gone. Has anyone else managed to grab a copy? I'll also ask in the Vinyl Carolina group on FB about it. I'm situated just outside of Charlotte, NC, USA.
Bernie Grundman Mastering Confirmation

KDR9526 August 2025United States🇺🇸
Can someone confirm if Bernie Grundman handled the lacquer cutting for this one? I noticed the 'BG' in the deadwax, and there's a test press mentioning he mastered it. I'm just wondering why it's not stated here.
Solid Comeback by Roth

Honestly, I'd never come across this CD before today... lol not terrible, I'm actually digging it. I kinda stopped paying attention after Dave left, but then I noticed he's the one singing on this, so I figured I'd give it a listen..... Just grabbed my own copy. Give this a shot, it's pretty solid. David Lee Roth - 1998 - DLR Band
Ripoff Vinyl Disappointment
2 out of 5 stars
kaardjuyisu26 July 2025United States🇺🇸
I picked this up for 70 bucks, thinking I'd hit the jackpot (forgetting that the official release was 2LPs), but when I opened it and saw a Women and Children sleeve with a review of Van Halen III, I quickly realized I'd been duped. What a letdown! I put the needle down expecting it to sound terrible, and it pretty much does! The sound is flat and muddy with a bass that's way too compressed, making it a not-so-great listen. I can only compare it to the CD, but yeah, skip this one unless you can snag it for cheap just to have it on vinyl!
