    From Amazon.com on Release Day.

    Amazon Bestsellers Rank: #2 in Music (See Top 100 in Music)
    #2 in Music > Pop
    #2 in Music > Rock

    I can see numero uno looming.

    My local NPR station today spun 2 “Blessed” songs, one in the early morning hour and one in the afternoon slot and a follow up non “Blessed” tune for the drive home with “Unsuffer Me.”

    “Buttercup” and “Sweet Love” were the two tracks played from “Blessed.”

    Don’t forget to call and request! Is there an updated radio station list for us to use?

    Amazon could NOT provide the vinyl edition! I am sooo disappointed. On to the hunt….

    Amazon definitely is carrying the vinyl –are they sold out?

    Yes -apparently they are temporarily sold out of the vinyl

    If it’s any consolation, I checked with my local indie record shop (in Houston) yesterday, and they said their vinyl copies were delayed for some reason. They were expecting the shipment either this Friday or Monday and speculated maybe there was some delay getting the vinyl pressed in time. I’d like to score one of those white vinyl copies.

    So I guess it might not be only Amazon, but a manufacturing problem. In any case, I got the deluxe edition from Amazon yesterday 😀

    My vinyl copy (from amazon) hasn’t shipped yet, but still has an arrival date between friday and tuesday. Here’s hoping!

    Parker what do you do for travel music when you buy vinyl? Copy it to a CD? Tape?

    Just wanted to remind everyone that the Blessed vinyl includes the cd & the Kitchen Tapes.

    Although there are USB turntables on the market that allow you to transfer music from vinyl to your computer. From there, of course, you can burn a CD, or transfer to an iPod or other digital music player…

    I recorded an album to a CD once. The hum and needle noise also came across.

    I’ve never tried it myself. Maybe it depends on the quality of the USB turntable? Although, without some sort of noise reduction, I imagine any “pops & clicks” from the vinyl would come through regardless of the quality of the turntable. Brand new vinyl would minimize this, of course.

    I’ve thought about getting one of those USB turntables to convert some of my old vinyl (from the 70’s!), but my musical tastes have changed enough since then so I could not justify the expense. Besides, anything from back then that I had on vinyl that I still really like I’ve since purchased on CD.

    For travelling music, I just love my 120 GB iPod Classic. Nothing beats having literally hundreds & hundreds of albums at your fingertips on the road…

    I am also using an ipod classic. I thinks it’s 160 gb. I started out using WAV files and it filled up quickly. I have since converted down to AAC.
