Custom Vinyl Records?

I've been waiting for Chris Isaak's Baja Sessions to come out on vinyl since I got sucked into turntables a few years back.
Every once in a while I go out looking. No dice. Can't even get a sucky bootleg.
I decided to try to find a place that could make me a record and found this site, Vinylify. You guys ever heard of it? You can design your own records. I guess you upload songs you own in 320K mp3 or something. This would obviously just be for the "vinyl experience" and not intended to compete with high res streaming or something. Might look into this a little more.

Also, the Chris Isaak Show from Showtime needs to become available for streaming. I only saw a few minutes of a show one time, but it was pretty good. Chris Isaak's a pretty funny dude.

Here's another one. This one lets you upload higher quality files. Have to see whether there are rules. I hope I don't have to record my own covers of Baja Sessions. I mean, I'll do it, but.

If so, you need to look for one called Outback. You know, no rules, just right.

Plus...
I mean... well... you know... you can always DIY.
I am sure you can turn up a recorder and blank disks on eBAY.

In all (well, in some) seriousness, I have a small sheaf of records cut by my father in his radio days, from WITH-AM in B-more. They're mostly commercial spots, but there are also a couple of 'recorded live' programs (vignettes), and a birthday record he got some of the on-air personalities of the station at the time (ca. 1957) to cut with him for my mother. I should really dig that out and, umm, digitize it.
Some of the disks are 16 inch. I don't have a broadcast transcription tt, but I know folks who do.

The cool dudes* are goin' with Mylar.
Thinkin' about putting a Stellavox or a Nagra in the Subaru, you know?
(OK, I'll stop now...)
