CONGRATS!!

That had to be quite an experience opening that one!! Peeling back one test after another!! Wow. Fun stuff! ;)

Most TMR test pressings ever sent/given at once? I guess so.

Good luck to the rest of you. I'm betting most of you get one test or a set of the colored variants. Seems the numbers are on your side if you pre-ordered!

I probably should've had an idea by the size/weight of the package, but it took me a minute to realize they were there.

I ordered a roulette with this, so it was on top and I opened it first. I feel bad now, but I have to admit I was a little bummed when the mystery item was a RSD FILWAG.

Below that was a layer of bubble wrap and cardboard and then the regular set. It wasn't until I pulled these out of the box that I realized there were more records. So, I quickly counted to make sure there were indeed thirteen in the set I just pulled out.

After I pulled out another layer of bubble wrap and cardboard, I saw the red jacket and started freaking out. It was better than Christmas! By far the coolest bonus item I've ever received!

Thanks again everyone! And a HUGE thanks to TMR!!

Good luck to everyone else that preordered!!

Wow, you can quadruple my congratulations now!


No extras for me, I think I must've made too many comments about being more into the music over at the Vault, they've probably flagged my account ;) Oh well. Listening to Charley now. I think this the first I've heard the tunes that he recorded with Bertha Lee, I don't recall those being on the Patton records I had before the Document reissues. But those damned chicken "coups" are back. Throw an 'e' on there and the poultry would ridin' in style.

Up next, the Mississippi Sheiks, 'cause I'm feelin' naughty.

Thats awesome, congrats man!

I got home to a pretty big box that could easily fit 18 LPs at my front door. Got really excited thinking it was a test press set. Opened it up to find a box set I ordered a month or 2 ago... disappointment. Maybe tomorrow
