Limited Pressing that was on the shelves for about two weeks then vanished! And, of course, is now out of print.
I saw the Avetts perfrom for the first time at Coachella in April 2007. There's not much one can say after experiencing their live show except for "Holy sh*t!". I had read about them shortly before my trip to California that year and I marked them off as a band I wanted to check out. Having never heard their music before, I wanted to see what they were all about. Man, am I glad I saw them that day! They are easily one of the best bands performing and recording today.
Shortly after returning from that trip, I purchased Emotionalism along with The Gleam. Sadly, the Avetts had nothing available on vinyl at that time so I was happy to purchase the CDs. Less than a year later, they released The Second Gleam. I really can't recall when the vinyl came out. I think it was released a short time after the CD but can't say for certain. Either way, the second I saw this appear on the shelf of my local Tower Records (man, I miss that store), I scooped it up! All I remember is there were only a few copies of it stocked at that time. And the next time I went back, they were all gone. This is one damn good album!
