I need this melancholy heartbreaker of an album in my permanent vinyl collection.

New prices are outrageous, prepared to pay a reasonable price for reasonably good quality version.

Hoping for a re release.

£34.99 for my last few copies about 6months ago & now circa $350-500 each & will only get higher
if you don,t want to get ripped off buy early as Mofi Never repress
most of my collectors buy multiples & make a packet in the future , have them all myself going back to the 70s
but buy them based on sound quality & none are sealed all opened & played

Floyd , Beatles , Sinatra , Sting etc are all worth serious cash these days
Future Tip Mofi KOB Box Set will be the next one as almost deleted

LP & 24k CD all gone rich

Good stuff. Whilst people are charging silly money I'll content myself with Spotify.

Can't help, but it's an excellent choice of LP Rich.

Yes, it passed me when first released and I've seen Beck live but totally missed this. Upon hearing the excellent 'morning phase' a couple of years ago I revisited this and it has stuck enough that I want the LP.

Been tipped off this is being reissued at the end of the month by UMe. Got me a pre-order on amazon for 27.99.

Much obliged to JohnB for the tip off.

I bought it on SACD pretty much as soon as it came out. That was worth a bit too last time I checked.

Was obsessed with it for ages. For some reason I just can't listen to it anymore.

Used to really like Odelay too. SQ just doesn't hack it compared to Sea Change. The Martin Logan Ascents I used to have friggin' loved that album. The ESL panels made it sound absolutely fantastic.

The track 'already dead' brings a lump to my throat every time. It recalls a very bittersweet time for me.

I'm so looking forward to finally spinning this on vinyl, a few drinks and some candlelight. Very autumnal feel to it.

£27.99 just think what they would charge if they paid tax , the Mofi one was £34.99 !!
£18.99 max you should pay for these at a record shop
Ume 140g are very , very cheap reissues
£27.99 will get you sea change & odelay
4x45rpm ORG odelay was £39.99 when it came out
if you can get them Mofi & Org best sounding versions by a country mile

Bit of a moot point though Scott as the mofi one isn't available and you've already said they don't reissue.

If you pre-ordered a couple of the Mofis they did repress & even a pink RSD version 3 in total great investment
28 quid for the new one is a rip-off

Scott, I'm a bit confused now. Can I pre-order the Mofi version then or the bundle you're mentioning? If so I'll happily cancel the Amazon order. If not I'll let it stand. Cheers

Rich let me know where you get a copy from of this reissue as I have been after it for ages. Astronomical price in discos!

Did you here Agnes Obel on 6music tonight? She played 3 tracks live in the studio. This new album shaping up to be the best thing she has done I feel.

Will do Jim. Maybe bring along to MiBO for the verdict.

I'm going to have to catch up on the new Agnes stuff and album. TBH I'm just back from hols where I was spending like a young Saudi prince so I might have to be content with Spotify for a while. This Beck release notwithstanding.
