Ok so I may or may not have made an ill advised purchased of "Chocolate & Ice" on Vinyl. It's the one that looks like this: (A little different pattern though)

So does anyone else have this? And if they do, does it sound absolutely horrible? There's not a scratch on it but it must be a bad pressing because there is a CONSTANT hiss-->pop that pretty much ruins it for me. Cobra is one of my favorite tunes so this really bums me out :-[

I have chocolate and ice on vinyl too, but the pattern is different. Mine is yellow and brown and kinda slurried together like yours (i like the blue btw!). However, when I bought it, the guy who owned the shop said that all of the pressings have a hiss to them (mine does too) because of whatever that glaze is on the vinyl. I was equally bummed out, but at least it's partially audible. They didn't realize the glaze had that effect until they released all of them  :-/

Baaaaaah, poor decisions! And vinyl is the perfect format for a track like Cobra. Maybe we can get something pretty looking AND sounding in the future. Thanks for the help!

I have the blue copy, and i believe it does hiss. I haven't listened to it on my good stereo yet, just my combo, which has the world's worst speakers, so i'm not 100% sure.  :(

Yup that's what I have, and yes it does :-[
I remember the last time I brought up my green c&i no one believed me, even after I posted a picture  ;D

I have both versions although I don't remember a hiss during cobra.

Unfortunately, MMJ has me right where they want me.

Oh, you released C&I on brown swirly vinyl, I'll take that.
Oh, you repressed C&I on blue swirly vinyl, I need that too.

Cool, AC released on red vinyl, yes send me one
Hmm, repressed AC on gold vinyl, need that too
OK, re-repressed on blue vinyl, send me one of those too.

Yes! Mof on gatefold vinyl, charge it baby!!!
Well, since I'm in this far, I'lll take the blue record store day pressing as well.

Anyone else in my morning jacket's pocket?

:D

I was somehow able to resist getting the first MoF release, mainly because they forced me to buy the CD by not releasing the vinyl at the same time. Oh, but then they had me with the clear blue...

One day, I had a dream like yours, Sara. But I'm now a poor student, with a job, who is poor because of My Morning Jacket. And it feels.... good?  ;D

Hahaha, that would feel better, because if you're poor because you bought MMJ stuff, at least you're rich on music&love [ch9835][ch9829]  :D

Actually I think Kory opted out on the fourth pressing.

I'm sure Kory has some impressive shtuff.  
Kory, can you post a link/ pic?

That sounds pretty badass. Unfortunately I'm not much of a collector. I buy vinyl to listen to it, so when I heard (or barely heard) C&I I was really crushed. Who knows, maybe we'll get a serious audiophile pressing soon.
