I'm a shellac girl, myself, but this whole twist on vinyl what with high price re-issues is a bit ridiculous.

I need only look at the Beatles' RSD Long Tall Sally EP reissue as an example of gouging and a money grab. What REAL value is there to this disc. Its not a new tracks and not something we haven't heard (or bought) a zillion times. Plus its not even authentic as it says 'Calderstone/ Universal' on it. As far as the 'cut from the original analogue tapes' -- big deal. I may be off base but unless the tracks are re-mix and then released, any thing released is like that. Does this really justify US$12.95 for a 4 song vinyl EP? I think not.

Bottom line -- money grab. If I really wanted this EP -- I'd search out an original

PS -- don't even get me started on Jack White and his silliness
