A thing of great beauty: 8 CDs, wonderful packaging, 75 previously unreleased tracks, lots of lovely photos... yes, The Girl From Chickasaw County - The Complete Capitol Masters has just arrived!

Looks like I'll be getting Gentrified over the next few days!

 

Mine arrived today too a lovely looking nicely presented box set which is in the throes of being ripped as I type. I'm out this evening but I may get a chance to listen to an album or two later tonight. Looking forward to that anon...

Is your ripper getting the metadata [@mention:22826037044169924] I'm staring at a blank dbPoweramp dreading entering 75 tracks by hand.

Hi Eoin, no it wasn't but I expected as much from such a brand new release on day one. I did my usual which, was to stick it into my Zoneripper that (usually) automatically does everything that is needed (using DbPoweramp as the default) it spat the CD out. So I ripped the album on the Mac using the DbPoweramp app. It's a rather painstaking process. If you are in no rush then it might be worth your while waiting a few days or perhaps a week until the 'global' database has been updated with this new album and that will save a lot of faff, I might do the same myself i.e. wait to rip the last 4 albums until the 'big' database has been updated. From what I've listened to so  far it's well worth the wait.

Thanks Steve, I’m away in the Smoke for a week from Monday, so may keep patient and rip it when I get back.

Black Grape - "Stupid Stupid Stupid". OK, not as good as the first album but not bad and a steal for 50p from the local Cancer Research Shop:

Good luck in the smoke, Eoin. I should have added that sometimes with albums and compilations that are less mainstream it can take quite a while for it to hit the 'big database' i.e longer than a week. However the opposite is true with Billy F. Gibbons brand new album that arrived this morning and was ripped instantly. Someone on the forum will know whether this is down to the record labels sending new material to the database or that someone like Billy Gibbons with a massive following will naturally populate said database as they sort out their music. Anyway i'm going to leave ripping the final four albums for a week or so to try and save having to manually manipulate the metadata. 

SWMBO won the battle re shopping in the rain, however I did buy these:

Sade - Diamond Life     (lots of mentions recently)

Katie Melua - Piece by Piece

Aimee Mann - Bachelor No 2 Or, The Last Remains of the Dodo

All 3 for less than a tenner.

Well chuffed.

Blimey, thats good where did you pick them up? 

I bought them from Kellys Records in Cardiff Indoor Market.

They do have a pretty good website which is pretty easy to find via google.

£3.00 each and they are all now ripped with no errors.
