I posted a few months back about buying this LP on Record Store Day and finding a John Mayer LP inside. My records were in storage for a few years so I didn't get a chance to open this for two years to find John Mayer inside. I contacted Third Man and they made no attempt whatsoever to make this right. Beware of Third Man they have gotten too big to take care of their customers. Very disappointing

To be fair, who lets you return something 2 years after you bought it?

I just opened mine 2 years later and found a John Mayer LP inside. Not funny Mr. White.

It looks like I got a misprinted copy. The label for side B is printed on both sides. Anyone else have this on their copy?

My copy has two a side labels!

Does anyone know if there are difference between the ones sold by TRM on-line store and the ones available for retailers?

I work in a small mom + pop record store & we just got the limited ed box sets in stock. They are definitely the same as the ones TMR are selling, but I encourage supporting mom + pop shops because their wholesale wasn't cheap!

Neil Young has never been the artist you think he is, forever proving that he, rather than David Bowie, is the true musical chameleon. I’ll be the first to admit to scratching my head when it comes to Mr. Young more times than not ... though in reality, it’s not important to Neil Young whether I get what he’s doing, or even that you get what he’s doing, because long story short, he doesn’t care. There are only two things that seem to interest this brilliant artist, the first being his headlong collision with the music industry’s take on quality sound, and he being able to paint his musical visions. Yes, there are those who are going to claim having an epiphany while listening to A Letter Home, a collection of covers that sounds older than time itself, as if recently unearthed from an interrupted postal delivery that laid unnoticed behind a wall for 75 years, and having absolutely nothing in common with his sensational 2012 Psychedelic Pill. In many aspects this album is a letter home, one where he talks to his long gone parents, and seems to have a childlike reverence for Jack White’s refurbished Voice-O-Graph recording booth, which was developed back in 1947, giving Young the advantage of being here and there, and now and then, all at the same time ... and believe me, he takes full advantage of it, paring everything down to the essentials: a simple acoustic guitar, a harmonica on which he delivers notes like he's never played one before, and cherished well appointed songs that he’s lived with for his whole life. Yes, A Letter Home is an affect, a gimmick, it’s Neil Young having a bit of fun ... and, if you purchase this album, you’ll soon find that Neil is have a bit of fun at your expense. There’s nothing I can say to praise this album, and there is nothing I can say to shoot it down either. Of course it’s not Harvest Moon, and it’s certainly not a lousy live recording either. It’s just what it is, Neil Young in a confined space doing what I did on the boardwalk of Atlantic City back in the late 50’s, where I paid my dollar, stood in a booth, sang my heart out, never knowing that everyone outside could hear me, walked home with my very own record ... and was devastated when it warped beyond belief, baking in the sun under the back window of our huge yellow Pontiac.Review by Jenell Kesler

Third Man debuted its Record Booth, a refurbished 1947 Voice-o-Graph machinethat records up to 2 minutes of audio and dispenses a one-oF-a-kind 6"phonograph disc to the user. Whether it be a song, a message to a lover, anaudio postcard, or just curiosity in a process that has mystified so manyfolks for ages, the ability to "hear yourself as others hear you" is notonly a tagline here... it's an invitation, a charge, a call to arms.

"Cut and Paste" ;-)If you llisten to the record closely you can imagine where parts are put together.I assume, where it was to obvious, there you'll hear a crack .

alexhas2sell Third Man debuted its Record Booth, a refurbished 1947 Voice-o-Graph machinethat records up to 2 minutes of audio and dispenses a one-oF-a-kind 6"phonograph disc to the user.How'd they record songs over two minutes? Did they retrofit it?

Anyone elses copy have a click which lasts half the track on b3?I cant tell if its intentional given the recording method..?

mine did not skip anywhere, just the tick thru last part of song on B3

yeah glad to hear you have this tick too. mine does also. i think , though it is not 100% proof , that it is inherent in the pressing that is , it is on the master , whatever way this was recorded for the vinyl issue. the digital version i believe does not have the noise, because they cleaned it up or something - read this somewhere.

I can't remember exactly when my "click" occurs but it's sometime on side 2 as well. Yeah it goes for half a song.

Yeah, no crap it's lo-fi. I think we are all aware of the backstory behind the making of the record. That does not mean that there could not have been an issue with the vinyl pressing itself. That's what folks were discussing...

YES that's the sound of this record - don't worry : It's LOW - FI !!Third Man debuted its Record Booth, a refurbished 1947 Voice-o-Graph machinethat records up to 2 minutes of audio and dispenses a one-oF-a-kind 6"phonograph disc to the user.

Yep, I've got a click in B3 -- at the end of the song, not the beginning. Also, the LP itself had a lot of residue on it when I first bought it. Had to manually remove a few specks of whatever that was causing sporadic isolated pops. So that issue was resolved. But couldn't fix the click on B3. Must be on the original acetate

There is a click that is constant at the end of the song (for the last 30-40 seconds) so I think it's just from the recording.

Confirmed. My copy clicks halfway through B3 as well.
