I've still got the original vinyl of the tv show so less rushed to purchase that one. But I know I will one day.

Yeah but you may well get hit with customs ordering straight from Mondo

Well thats never happened for my previous Mondo orders but i might just have got lucky. Either way its worth it!

Anyone who ordered FWWM from Mondo see it ship out yet? Nothing yet on my end. I'm hoping for something this coming week maybe, though I know it could be the full 3-4....

A little glimpse to sate our curiosity:

Zavvi have FWWM up for preorder for UK folks. I managed to order it at £29.99 but it now seems to have gone up to £39.99. Worth keeping your eye on it as it may drop again.

Mondo didn't send me any email about shipping.

Me neither. My new hypothesis is that FWWM might not ship out until around 2/17. That's the date that most if not all non-Mondo suppliers are saying they will get it in stock or ready to ship out, and it would also still fall within Mondo's 3-4 week period. It'd be unfortunate, but I'm willing to wait if the release sounds as good as I'm hoping it does!

The waiting is hard.

I got a copy last night. I went to screening of FWWM at the Alamo Drafthouse and the Mrs. won the raffle and got the 2LP free!

I also ordered directly from Mondo and have not gotten that copy yet. I presume Mondo was working directly with Alamo and made sure those copies got out in time for the screenings.

If it's not too much trouble could you grab the details etched into the runout areas of the vinyl? That's how you find out who pressed them and I'm curious if Death Waltz used the same place as the last soundtrack.

Didn't they use Rainbo for the last one? Because I'm pretty certain they also did for FWWM

Yea they used Rainbo. I got lucky and my copy wasn't messed-up, but the same couldn't be said for others. It's unfortunate how they charge for a premium product and have its production sent off to one of the worst places to do so. All that work put into the music and packaging only to have it chucked-off to a place with poor quality control. Bleh.

Yeah, it's a shame. Just hoping the FWWM first pressings at least avoid catastrophe and sound sufficiently good.

This is just rumor, but someone on the stevehoffman.tv forums is claiming they have inside info that Rhino is releasing the FWWM soundtrack on LP and CD sometime in mid-late May. They say they can't give more details, but that it will be a cheaper release unlike the DW ones. Will update if anything else comes out about this... the poster seems to be reputable, so I don't think they're lying about this but there may be some miscommunication somewhere.

S-96397, S-96398, S-96399, S-96400, DW51 A, DW51 B, DW51 C, and DW51 D, respectively. Also various quotes that I didn't write down. Major Briggs on Bobbi, Donna on Laura's mom's cigarettes, etc.

Hmm if this is true I wonder what this could mean as far as pressing stuff goes. Rhino has been farming out to anybody BUT Rainbo recently so if true, a good sign! Cheaper and possibly a better production. It's a shame it couldn't be the other way around if this is how it's really gonna happen.

Thanks! The S-xxxxx does indicate Rainbo, that's their mark. When's Death Waltz/Mondo gonna learn??
