Re: Album: Icky Thump
I have started seeing the URP repress of Icky Thump in record stores. At least I am am 99% sure it's the repress since it's been out of print for a while. From the outside it looks identical to me. I haven't purchased one to check it thoroughly against my original release, but there is one thing different that you can tell with almost every copy. The repress comes with the thick pink inner sleeves instead of the plain white inner sleeves. With all the copies I looked at this weekend you could clearly see the pink inner sleeve from the side.

Re: Album: Icky Thump
There were a couple copies of Icky at TMR yesterday, but I didn't think to ask if they were the new re-issue.

Re: Album: Icky Thump
I was just looking at images of this record, and I noticed some of the red seal labels are at the top, and some on the side. My copy is on the side. Is there any significance to the label placement?

Re: Album: Icky Thump
On top? As far as I know, only the CD version has the "fake seal" on top. The LP wears it on the side (so the vinyl is sealed )tvstoryteller wrote:I was just looking at images of this record, and I noticed some of the red seal labels are at the top, and some on the side.

Am I right?

Re: Album: Icky Thump
See, I thought that could be an explanation but then the tracklisting on there is split into only two sides, A & B. I'm 99% sure it's wrong, but it's an odd thing to be wrong about.

Re: Album: Icky Thump
It seems this album has gone back out of print. Ordered from Soundstage Direct and order was canceled due to unavailability. Strange since it was most recently repressed at URP. Getting ready for 2017?
