Classic Dylan Reissues Postponed

Postby thomh » Thu Oct 23, 2003 4:00 am

From Fremer's Musicangle website:

http://www.musicangle.com/shownews.php?id=30

This just in from Classic Records: "Classic Records regrets to inform you that because of circumstances beyond our control the Classic Bob Dylan Signature LP Series has been delayed indefinitely until further notice. Currently these releases are on hold as Sony considers the developing vinyl market place. We are very disappointed and frustrated as we were looking forward to reissuing all 15 titles on Classic Records Quiex SV-P 200-gram vinyl allowing Bob Dylan fans to experience the Classic treatment of these titles." musicangle will follow up and try to get more details on what's behind this sudden about face.


Is Sony afraid that these vinyl releases would potentially hurt their recently released SACD sales? Both formats do target the audiophiles out there.

Maybe you're right, or maybe Sony's AC/DC vinyl is selling better than they thought, and they want the money for themselves. Time will tell.
