Pre-Order Thread

I’m waiting for a Beatles Mono repress. I’ve been very patient.

The way the Beatles milk their cash cow, an entire reissue of their catalog on colored vinyl is surely on the way.

I think colored vinyl would be offensive to a lot of Beatles vinyl collectors.

Yea I don’t want anything colored. Just a repress of the Mono Box on standard black plz.

I think anyone that finds anything as incidental as coloured vinyl offensive is far more objectionable as a person that such “sacrilege” itself ever could be...

I thought they made a big deal about when the mono stuff was going out of print.

I think we made a big deal about it...

I thought the same about Pink Floyd and The Rolling Stones, then we got colored vinyl from them.

I think Neil Young is about as sacred as it gets when it comes to colored vinyl and offending (him) and his fan base.

Paul and John’s catalog are getting colored presses, so it’s only a matter of time.

Rare soul/boogie single up for order.

Well I know we did. But I thought there was some kind of social media post from saying that worldwide inventories are low and when they're gone they're gone.

That's how they market this stuff.Think about 'farewell' tours and movies going back into the Disney vaults. The Beatles publishing rights are owned by Sony, If they can make money off a reissue they will reissue it.

Rubber Soul on burnt orange vinyl wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world tbh.

Forgive me if I’m wrong but publishers don’t control the release of an album? They control the royalties?

I think peppers on red, magical mystery tour or yellow submarine on yellow and white on white wouldn’t be too bad either. Red and blue on, well, red and blue would be fine too...

 

[Joe Mac]

I would be utterly shocked though if they chose the monos to go colour. The whole packaging (with original rights holders) has been a complete reproduction of the originals. I’d say any colour presses would more likely be on the stereo versions.

 

[dbarila]

Have the possible reissues started popping up other places than the couple on Merchbar?

 

[Melt Face Molly Drop]

Bob Dylan and Neil are 2 artists that I don’t mind are on black (minus the Dylan and the Dead RSD release which I don’t consider part of Dylan’s studio catalog)

I already have the last two and don't need/want any other colored version

 

[dbarila]

I sent Merchbar an email to get the low down.

I mean I have nearly everything I want too (damn rare out of print Let It Be... Naked whale) but it’s more I don’t think it’s sacrilege and I think that’d work rather than I want it.
