Buckner and Garcia - Pac Man Fever (original mixes)
The Avalanches - Since I Left You
Pac Man Powerpill - Pac Man Powerpill
Pet Shop Boys - Very (the version with the groovy cover art)

I can't see how anyone can argue the avalanches album should not be out of print. You had enough chances to buy it, forchristsakes!

i just exonerated Musea on the 'worst label' thread, but hmmm they did let both of those Saint Just albums (and the one great Sensation's Fix album. and St. Tropez?) slip OOP. unforgivable. someone needs to fix this ugly development tout de suite.

who has the rights to Eskaton's '4 Visions'? this is the Best. Magma. LP. (n)Ever. - sorry, Guapo - and there's no good reason for it not to be on the shelves.

Is "Since I Left You" out of print already?

Geir Hongro, Thursday, 22 April 2004 22:04 (twenty years ago) link

The new Mojo has an ad for remastered versions of the Richard & Lindas with bonus tracks.

And Hip-O is doing a limited/expanded edition of the Howard Tate stuff at www.hipodirect.com.

I would love to see Helen Merrill's 'American Country Songs' on CD.

'The new Mojo has an ad for remastered versions of the Richard & Lindas with bonus tracks.'

That's what I was posting.

I'd like to see the two React The Dark Side comps reissued. Also the early pre-Parallel Universe 4Hero EPs and records (and maybe even Parallel Universe these days and actually all that early Reinforced stuff should come out in CD form.) And 28 Gun Bad Boy and Dance Before the Police Come and Reggae Owes Me Money and all those other great darkcore/hardcore/early jungle CDs which are nearly unfindable these days. Also someone should reissue Loop's stuff and the early Spectrum things and the Pop Group domestically.

i'm surprised that "embrace the herd" is deleted already. sure, it's not a perennial like "colossal youth" but really how difficult is it for a company like ryko to press another 500 to have on hand.

none of the "...scene" 60s compilations on deram / decca should be out of print but apparently are. same with many of repertoire's fab reissues (the smoke, kaleidoscope..)

The Feelies "The Good Earth", "Time for a Witness" & "Only Life"

The Good Earth is basically in print (you have to print your own cover art). www.twintone.com. Note also Yung Wu on CD!

seven months pass...
Hmmm, there's a new-ish (a month old?) Citibank ad using "Slow Down" by the Feelies, that I didn't hear until just now. 1) I'm pleasantly surprised and 2) I wonder if that's a positive omen for a real reissue.

In my store, I get at least one or two people every month ask me about Traveling Wilburys stuff and they are perplexed that those things are no longer available.

Having only ever worked in music shops, I can second that.

i want mono trav wilbury's LPs.

I have mentioned that Lick my decals off, baby is supposedly being reissued soon, haven't I?

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Monday, 13 February 2006 20:54 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm almost positive that Young Marble Giants "Collosal Youth" and Gang of Four's "Entertainment" are both still in print considering that I bought both of them new last year. Entertainment was a newer cd version, not the older one that I've seen in other peoples music collections that is probably out of print. I'd say that practically ALL of Flipper's albums need to be reissued. I was luck enough to get "Generic" when it was on cd for a little while, I'm pretty sure all that's still available on cd is "Blowin Chunks". I'm also pretty sure that I saw "No New York" on cd on Amazon not too long ago. I'd also say that No Trend's stuff needs to be reissued, all there is is their last album, plus a collection called "Teen Love, The early months".

Happy? from Public Image Ltd. Most of PiL's albums are available on CD except for this one. Used copies are selling for a high price too.

Jeff K (jeff k), Tuesday, 14 February 2006 02:31 (eighteen years ago) link

no new york has definitely been reissued because I just saw a stack of them at amoeba

kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 14 February 2006 02:38 (eighteen years ago) link

I knew it! I got a funny one. "Into the Unknown" by Bad Religion.

xgurggleglgllg (xgurggleglgllg), Tuesday, 14 February 2006 02:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Actually I started a thread not too long ago about Killdozer's stuff being out of print.
Of course there's also SSD. I've never heard that cd "Power", that's out now, but all I've heard about it is that it isn't very good and that the original records should've just be re released.

xgurggleglgllg (xgurggleglgllg), Tuesday, 14 February 2006 02:56 (eighteen years ago) link

The "No New York" is, if it's the same thing we are getting, an odd Russian import. I believe that it is OOP domestically.

Although it's no longer applicable, Pretty Hate Machine was OOP for the longest time. We were stocking the Canadian import that we had to sell for $18.99 forever but recently it came back into print after TVT sold the rights or something like that.

Pete Shelley's two Martin Rushent produced albums Homosapien and XL1.

-- Billy Dods (butterbubble...), February 4th, 2003.

It looks like Homosapien gets reissued this week:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000EJ9KYO/qid=1143954798/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl/203-0253616-4668705

This dovetails nicely with my recent discovery of the unimpeachability of Dare, as well as my longtime need to get the Talking Heads remasters in a format other than shitty, shitty DualDiscs.

James.Cobo (jamescobo), Sunday, 2 April 2006 04:16 (eighteen years ago) link

All 4 Fetchin' Bones albums need to come back into print. On CEE DEE! I don't have a turntable anymore.

Mary Margaret O'Hara - Miss America

Recently discovered through an mp3 blog posting. Really like it - a cross between the Cocteaus and the Throwing Muses.

Treblekicker (treblekicker), Sunday, 2 April 2006 13:38 (eighteen years ago) link

In praise of... Miss America by Mary Margaret O'Hara

Carmel - The Drum Is Everything

My favorite British pop-jazz record of the early-mid 80s. Many of the songs are just drums, bass, and vocals - a few more with Hammond organ added - and then a few with a horn section added.

Listen to this cover of 'Tracks of My Tears':

Insides, Clear Skin; Euphoria

Gibson Bros., Dedicated Fool

Doug Lazy, Gettin' Crazy

Allen Toussaint, Southern Nights

hank (hank s), Saturday, 22 April 2006 19:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Surprised to hear that Southern Nights is out of print. But you can at least find it on the Complete Warner Recordings. Gotta do a little bit of a search for that, but it's definitely out there and so worth it!

Union by Charalambides
Harsh Seventies Reality by The Dead C

the unbearable lightness of peeing (orion), Sunday, 23 April 2006 02:30 (eighteen years ago) link

You know what should be in print? the record that Jeff Monn made for Vanguard (*REALITY*) after leaving The Third Bardo. Heavily orchestrated garage-folk and pop with strings and horns that would totally influence a generation if only the MAN would let it.

scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 23 April 2006 02:43 (eighteen years ago) link

i wanna hear it. tape it for me.

I just picked up the Exotic Sounds of Martin Denny compilation on Capitol only to find that the accompanying Exotic Moods of Les Baxter is out of print. ARGH. MY BRAIN DONE FOLDED IN HALF.

I was looking at various things on the AMG yesterday and was surprised to find out (via their shopping cart links) that most, if not all, of Van Morrison's Polydor catalogue (Tupelo Honey onwards) which got the "20-Bit Remastered" treatment in the late '90s is OOP, or at least tempoarily out of circulation.

C. Grisso/McCain, Thursday, 1 March 2007 16:06 (seventeen years ago) link

this dude at the record store tried to tell me that mad season's 'above' was out of print just the other day. i'm like "no, don't give me that shit. how can such a unique, important collaborative supergroup put out something that doesn't register on the ublic radar merely a decade or so down the track?" he was all full of shrugs, so i wandered out of the store, marched about 300 metres to the next record store and it was in stock. purchased it without any dramas. i've long had it in my collection, myself, but it was a gift for someone else...

Charlie Howard, Thursday, 1 March 2007 16:11 (seventeen years ago) link

"A Different Kind Of Tension" by the Buzzcocks has been OOP (other than as part of the Product box set) in the UK since forever.
