It still has that scary cover. But now I can use those B&N gift cards that I have set aside.

I think I will stick with the red. I wonder what the next Iconic LP re-release will be? I am hoping for a remastered Hasten Down The Wind, or even better a remastered re-release of her self titled Linda Ronstadt LP from 72’. Don’t Cry Now would be great, but honestly, I am trying to get my hands on an Original Master Version on LP of DCN never opened. I have one of those on CD already that sounds amazing.

I been funny about getting more records and paper stuff with all the constant reorganizing here that they'll get lost in the shuffle. I don't have records in one area now like when I was a kid into adulthood. I have to re-arrange stuff and find my new turntable and start spinning the records again. eddiejinnj

Vinyl is like candy to me. Always when I am trying to not buy any, a Linda album will be re-released or another artist will do so that I think I HAVE to have…I’ve got to stop! Christmas will be here and I will have spent all my shopping money on myself! |

I think it weird unless the buyer of Linda's catalog has other ideas that they would issue 3 colors of the Christmas album especially since it is not an anniversary year like say 25 (which would be 2025). eddiejinnj

I see they're not using Linda's sequencing.

I got two copies of the Merry Little Christmas red vinyl from Barnes and Noble today. They shipped the vinyl by UPS, the CD by postal service on the same day. UPS delivered records today; I will have to wait 4 more days for the CD.
I also previously bought the green and silver vinyl issues, and I must say they shrink-wrapped these records so tightly that they were very hard to open.
In fact, of the two red ones that arrived today, one had the cover wrinkled and bent because of the tight shrink wrap. The shipping box was undamaged. I think I am going to return it unopened, and they will still rip me off for the shipping charge, which I should not have to pay receiving a damaged item.

So they are selling them at Barnes and Noble? Just confirming. If I saw them in person like in a store I would be more inclined to buy for some reason. Moky, I am not a red person (meaning I don't like the color red much lol) but if I bought one I would get the red one, too. eddiejinfl

Moky, I am not a red person (meaning I don't like the color red much lol) but if I bought one I would get the red one, too. eddiejinfl I changed my mind on the red once I saw the green. I didn’t care for the tint of the red one in the photos, it probably was not exactly the shade it appears in the photos but once I saw the green I went with that instead. I bought mine through Amazon cause I got a better deal. Mine arrived this AM and I took photos to post on here of front and back. When I went to post it said the files are too large and I have no idea how to modify the files so I couldn’t post them. I have not opened it yet. …I should have checked the sticker before opening it because they sent the wrong color, the one I like the least, the silver one. I am playing it now because my partner wanted me to, he is already playing his Xmas music for two weeks now, GOD HELP ME! If it plays well with no defects I will keep the silver. Sounds great but we will see when we get to the glass instrument, that didn’t translate so well on vinyl with the Trio 2 rerelease on vinyl a few years ago. …I thought the glass harmonica was used on a couple tracks but I can’t find it in the credit looking at the LP credit sheet. So far it’s sounds GREAT! …sorry, one last comment, no, we didn’t get Linda’s preferred sequence, but in LP format it ends up splitting the more contemporary material on side one, and the older choral music on side two so with the LP you can kind of get Linda sequence by playing side two before side one. Not perfect Linda order, but closer than the CD if you play side two of LP version first. |

I have never cared for green vinyl. Green vinyl always gets a yuck reaction from me. I'd probably buy the red vinyl as I don't care much for the silver vinyl either. Course, I could buy the green and silver vinyl for my brother or sister or for my nieces. And I have an 8 year old grandniece who needs to be introduced to Linda Ronstadt, to carry on my tradition of being an influence (musically) on my family members.

Is this music that an 8 year old can appreciate?
Apparently not available in standard black vinyl. Or classic white snow vinyl.

The more THAT voice gets ingrained in the listener the better, imo, lol!!! eddiejinnj
