U2 "The Joshua Tree" 2-LP Set, Vinyl, Album, Reissue, Remastered (2017 Island Records pressing)

The Joshua Tree is the fifth studio album by the Irish rockband U2. It was produced by Daniel Lanois and Brian Eno, and was released on 9 March 1987 by Island Records. In contrast to the ambient experimentation of their 1984 release, The Unforgettable Fire, the band aimed for a harder-hitting sound within the limitation of conventional song structures on The Joshua Tree. The album is influenced by American and Irish roots music, and through sociopolitically conscious lyrics embellished with spiritual imagery, it contrasts the group's antipathy for the "real America" with their fascination with the "mythical America". (Wiki)

U2 are an Irish rock band formed in Dublin in 1976. The group comprises Bono (lead vocals and rhythm guitar), the Edge (lead guitar, keyboards, and backing vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen Jr. (drums and percussion). Initially rooted in post-punk, U2's musical style has evolved throughout their career, yet has maintained an anthemic quality built on Bono's expressive vocals and the Edge's chiming, effects-based guitar sounds. Bono's lyrics, often embellished with spiritual imagery, focus on personal and sociopolitical themes. Popular for their live performances, the group have staged several elaborate tours over their career. (Wiki)

METAL MONDAYS - BACK IN STOCK - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvF9PAxe5Ng

Metallica "Re-Load" Vinyl 2-LP Set (2014 Blackened Recordings pressing) (Reissue) (Gatefold)

Metallica: James Hetfield (vocals, guitar); Kirk Hammett (guitar); Jason Newsted (bass); Lars Ulrich (drums). Additional personnel: Marianne Faithfull (vocals); Bernardo Begalli (violin); David Miles (hurdy-gurdy); Jim McGillveray (percussion). Producers: Bob Rock, James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich. Recorded at The Plant Studios, Sausilto, California between May 1995 and February 1996 and from July to October 1997. "Fuel" was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance. "Better Than You" won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. When Metallica recorded 1996's LOAD, the studio sessions were fruitful enough for the band to put out two records. A year and a half later, RELOAD is the inevitable follow-up. Stretching beyond Metallica's speed metal roots, RELOAD is a continuation of the experimentation that dismayed many old fans and welcomed in many new ones. As a result, many Metallica firsts are reached on their eighth album. Some anomalies include recruiting the legendary Marianne Faithfull to contribute backing vocals on "The Memory Remains" and the addition of hurdy-gurdy and violin to the mix of the wistful "Low Man's Lyric." Throughout all this experimentation, Metallica still plays hard and fast, particularly on the metal groove of "Fuel" and the relentless pounding of "Where The Wild Things Are," (a title borrowed from children's author Maurice Sendak). Metallica continues to reinvent itself in a genre where mediocrity is always just around the corner.

Track List: DISC 1:Fuel, The Memory Remains, Devil's Dance, The Unforgiven II, Better Than You, Slither, Carpe Diem Baby. DISC 2:Bad Seed, Where the Wild Things Are, Prince Charming, Low Man's Lyric, Attitude, Fi###er.

Original Pressings vs. New Pressings/Reissues
This question has led to some wonderful conversations with several good customers, lately.

Of course, it is a very personal choice and a decision that you will need to make on your own, based on at least two very important factors; cost vs. value (as some original pressings can be costly), and more importantly how much of a music purist you are you, or as this article below wisely mentions, “how much does it matter to you?” To be fully transparent, I sell both original pressings or Used records, as well as New records or re-issues/new pressings; so either way, I absolutely respect your preference/choice and again, it is a choice for you to personally make. In the meantime, please enjoy reading this great article I found this weekend on the topic. It is a few years old, but still very much on point. It lease share your thoughts in the comments.
