Good luck with the sub repair. That sucks.

Question: I (finally) just snagged the first three Pere Ubu albums on vinyl. Decided to go with new Fire Records repress/reissues, as they seem to consistently rate higher than the original pressings.

Have any experience with Ubu Fire pressings? Hoping for the best.
Brian,
IRT the first three albums, I have "New Picnic Time" on Fire & it's well recorded. FWIW, Fire is one of my favorite independent labels. Typically they sound very good to excellent.  
@boxer12 

Great to know Tim. Thanks. Have not heard Dub Housing and Modern Dance on vinyl for a long time, really looking forward to those, as well as Picnic.
you can catch it in the film The Sound of My Voice, JD trying to discern the moment she slipped away in the sweet, hot, languid even California night……
