Pulp on Vinyl

I got my More green vinyl in the mail today. 

Sadly, I don't have a lot of Pulp in my vinyl collection. Obviously, in the States, you usually don't see used copies of HnH or DC out and about.

Here's what I else I have.

After You (RSD)
Girls Like it Too
Room 29
Beyond the Pale
Chansons D'Ennui

I would love to at least have the big three on vinyl, but anything even half-affordable in US has terrible reviews for sound quality. Has anyone had any luck finding good-sound copies anywhere? How was that RSD reissue of Intro from a few years back?

Lastly, any know the status of the remasters Jarvis and Steve were working on in 2019?

His n Hers and Intro have been reissued from the 2019 remastering sessions. Different Class 25 was kiboshed by the pandemic. More has made DC 30 less likely but then they are using the cutout imagery to promote More so maybe we'll finally get the aperture version of DC once more, soon.

Im in the states and I used discogs for 90% of my Pulp vinyl collection. Highly recommend. Some stuff is quite expensive but Ive found great deals on there. Original pressings of the big three are expensive to come by though.

I'm in Canada, and the resources are worse than in the States... I use Discogs too. Some are really expensive, just be patient & wait for what you want.

Thanks for the advice, all. Very helpful!

Oh and I forgot one more Pulp vinyl in my collection: Razzmatazz 12-inch!

Repressings of Intro, His N Hers, Hardcore & We Love Life are all fine but don't bother with Different Class until it gets a re-release because every time I go to play mine, it makes my ears so unhappy that I stop it before Pencil Skirt & put the CD on. Everything about it, including the reproduction of the artwork, is utter tat.

I believe an original is slightly better but will set you back. I'm faurly confident Universal will reissue the old albums off the back of More's success.

The original Different Class isn't great either, sound wise. I think partly because it's about 50 minutes long which is more than you're really supposed to cram onto 2 sides of an LP, but partly just substandard 90s vinyl pressing. Nice artefact though (although again, I'd describe the sleeve quality as 'acceptable' rather than 'premium').

Came here to say exactly what Sturdy has: I have the original DC in the aperture sleeve and while its a nice object its not a good pressing - the sound is almost a bit muffled and muddy and not as clear as youd ideally want.
I used to think I just had a duff copy but Im onto my second one now and its exactly the same. If there was a remastered reissue Id buy it.
Design wise its pretty cool but man, the sleeve and the inserts are pretty thin. Hence why so many copies on Discogs/eBay are torn.

Universal must know a properly done Different Class reissue/boxset would be a no-brainer. I'm sure they're biding time til the day they take us all on.

I wish Universal will reissue them all this year. Its gonna be so meaningful, especially for DC, 30 years anniversary and Pulps back. What a year.

I never thought vinyl quality would be an issue, hmmm. Just saw some comments on Discogs about certain labels. That makes sense why the same album, some version is one vinyl and some are 2. Thanks for sharing!
