Inside vinyl pressing plant Rainbo Records during its last days of production 

It sat empty for close to 2 years after we closed down close to 50k per month rent for that long. Landlord was a tool.

Yo.....is it cool if I join you in the idea of having my ashes pressed in a separate record?!

Third Man Records just recently opened a brand new pressing plant in Detroit. They mentioned United records. I think that is where Third Man Records used to get all their stuff pressed. Meanwhile, the Third Man plant: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CcukGhELqPg.html It's even followed up by a tour of United records, from back in the day where TMR got everything pressed there.

The US pressing of the Beatles stereo LP remasters were pressed at Rainbo but were plagued with quality issues. Many had to return them and still had issues with the replacements. I bought the German pressing of the boxed set and it resulted in the later mono vinyl pressings being made in Germany for the world.

@@peterx1957 Good lord, I have about 4 sets of the Beatles in Stereo Vinyl and 2 of them are still in their shrink wrap! Many of the records are warped. Should have bought the mono versions pressed in Germany, at Optimal.

I have a Beatles stereo vinyl set and all the albums are still sealed, but I just learned about the terrible American pressings this year. I was so bummed out. But throughout the years, I've bought the albums individually and opened and played those instead, and about half of them are European releases that just so happened to be in the store that day. I didn't know there was a difference. I thought for sure The Beatles of all people have some sort of quality control. But it has to do with Capitol Records getting their dirty hands on distributing rights in the US.. It's the same situation with Radiohead, who was also on Parlaphone. Now any time I buy a record, especially from a British group, I look to see if Capitol is involved. I just wish I knew sooner! I hope this info helps someone. I learned it from a great RU-vid channel all about Beatle vinyl pressings called Parlaphone Auctions. And to think Capitol didn't even want to release the Beatles in America at first lol.

@@Itsthatguy24 This is probably why record company's do NOT want you to know where they are pressed for fear that you'll get a damaged pressing and have negative words about that plant. It should be just the opposite!! Make a quality record and be proud to list on the LP where it was pressed and made!!! But secrecy is still in charge in the music bidness!;-)

Sounds like a way to make money if you ask me. That's what, several dozen or more jobs for those seeking work?! Such a devastating waste of an opportunity!

Because the equipment is out of reach at rainbo we use to order parts from sussia super old stuff and hard to get

It’s the best I pressed at rainbo for years I loved every second of it
