Title: SL-01
Post by: christine on June 19, 2007, 12:24:18 AM

Ehem -- Hi!
First time / long time.

Here's the thing:  I walk into this record store today and I don't get within ten feet of the used bin when I spot this (http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1023/567106508_aa76a7a725.jpg), just sitting there, right out in the open, obviously waiting for me to show up and take it home.  Kismet, right?

But clearly it is not this (http://stereolaffs.com/rockrot.php).  It's a CD-R with a less-than-fancy paper label and a single one color insert (http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1408/567529805_2a9a1987af.jpg), but all the credits and contacts are there.  I guess what I'm asking is:  Is this legit?  It's legit, right?  The fledgling release of a baby Stereolaffs, maybe? 

Anyone else have this?  Ever seen it?  What's up!

Thanks, FOTs.

Christine -

That is the first pressing of RR&R. The artwork isn't as snazzy as the new version, but the jokes are all the same.

All Stereolaffs releases are on CD, not CD-R. So I'm not sure about that. But that CD does look like the first run of CDs, so you've got me stumped.

Enjoy it in good health!

Tom.

Bizarre.  It's definitely a shiny blue CD-R.  Truth be told, I haven't even played it yet.  Here's hoping it is what it says it is.

Thanks, Tom!

Hah, I've seen it there a couple times and thought about picking it up to give to a friend, but I've never had the cash on me at the time.

Oh well,
while one of my friends misses out, you score big time
