Finally another Vanessa update, She's printing the album to vinyl!!!

[LauraH]

This is so exciting! (:
Is vinyl more expensive?...lol. Stupid question sorry.

[CelestialHorse]

...I don't have a record player :/

If she's printing on vinyl, I know I'm not getting it.  The only record player accessible to me is my uncle's, and he's kept it somewhere - obviously, it's whereabouts are unknown.  /sigh Well, hopefully, she releases it on iTunes and the album art is released with it; if not, then I'll just have to hope that someone will upload the album art (please? lol). Alternatively, she can print ROTR on vinyl and on CD? Maybe I'm just being a little to wishful.

That's what I am worrying about too. I'm not sure whether I would be able to get a copy of ROTR. Besides, I don't have any player.

My parents do have a record player but I wanna listen to the album in the car, on my ipod etc. So if the album is only released on vinyl (which will be surprisingly dumb) then I'll probably buy the vinyl just never listen to it and download high quality mp3 to burn a cd.

If she prints on vinyl - worst comes to worst, I'll have to get it off of YouTube. A vinyl copy would be useless for me.

I enjoy the vinyl sound so much better!! Doesn't lose quality.

Actually, it does. Vinyl by design has a more limited dynamic range than CD, and on top of that, it's a contact medium. The stylus touches the disc during playback and gradually wears it down. And on top of that, dust and hairs on the disc result in clicks and pops.

Yet all of that does have a certain charm to it.

[HearMyBells]

When do you think we're going to get a lead-single?
I'm placing bets on Mid-November, any other predictions? : )

[[sobriquet]]

I hope you're right, though I get the feeling of the single being released by the end of the year or early next year. Maybe it's just the pessimistic of me.

But anyway, we'll know it soon. She might update us again after she get back to England on Sept. 6.

She's not gonna print exclusively on vinyl, that wouldn't make sense at all. A lot of artists and bands release their albums on CD, digital and vinyl formats; the vinyl is more like a collectible.

I agree. I don't think V has gone too nonconformist to print ONLY on vinyl. Yet.

As much as I love hate to brag, I already have an autographed "black circle" from Vanessa Carlton. She was so thrilled to see that one actually existed!

Maybe that was her plan all along. Honestly a lot of artists these days are doing all three printing to vinyl, cd, and mp3. I highly doubt there is any reason to worry. And places like Urban Outfitters sell said vinyls.
