Is the first Flipper album in print again?

two weeks pass...
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.

nine months pass...
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.

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...

"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.

kwhitehead, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:12 (seventeen years ago) link

I mean...records.

Yes.

since when has the nick drake fruit tree box not been available? that's a surprise.

pisces, Thursday, 1 March 2007 18:14 (seventeen years ago) link

I think Fruit Tree was dropped when the albums were remastered after the VW ad.

Milli Vanilli! Girl You Know It's True has been deleted for the longest time, and you just know that some will swear it's a masterpiece.

Myonga Vön Bontee, Thursday, 1 March 2007 21:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Where I'm Coming From by S. Wonder.

The Reverend, Thursday, 1 March 2007 21:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm sure I read somewhere recently that Fruit Tree is being reissued

Stewart Osborne, Thursday, 1 March 2007 21:40 (seventeen years ago) link

"Jesus Is Cool" is currently out of print, no? Which is a shame.

Geir Hongro, Sunday, 4 March 2007 21:32 (seventeen years ago) link

the entire Slowdive catalog should always be in print.

Cameron Octigan, Sunday, 4 March 2007 22:41 (seventeen years ago) link

I want Lemon Kittens reissues and I want them now.

sleeve, Monday, 5 March 2007 00:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Hmm. Obviously I meant "Jesus Of Cool". "Jesus Is Cool" must be some pathetic "youthful" gospel album, I guess :)

Geir Hongro, Monday, 5 March 2007 14:59 (seventeen years ago) link

weird Cloudland is one of the only Pere Ubu albums I own - its good!

Shakey Mo Collier, Wednesday, 7 March 2007 21:49 (seventeen years ago) link

hey, that Allen Toussaint LP is now back in print, since my last post...the system works!

henry s, Wednesday, 7 March 2007 21:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Story of My Life is great, I think the others are, apart from the live albums, the weakest Ubu albums, but I'm glad they'll be back in print.

the FEELIES - Crazy rhythms
Main - Dry Stone Feed

buyabiznatch, Thursday, 8 March 2007 02:10 (seventeen years ago) link

The Feelies are working on it, sorting out some issues. Hopefully sooner then later. In the meantime, check out any Glenn Mercer gig you can...should be playing in Brooklyn soonish.

dan selzer, Thursday, 8 March 2007 02:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Argybargy is in the Squeeze box set I got for xmas coupla/few years back... dunno if that counts, but who on earth would want to be without the others anyway?!

Saxby D. Elder, Thursday, 8 March 2007 05:43 (seventeen years ago) link

Well, at least "Cool For Cats" and "East Side Story" are worth it. Bit more unsure about the other three albums in the box set.

Trap Door To Be Reissued By Rhino Handmade

Yay! Thanks.

Jazzbo, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Can't wait for the Feelies reissues--hopefully they'll have some cool bonus material. And though I'm far far away from Brooklyn, the new Glenn Mercer stuff I've heard sounds good--better than Wake Ooloo, I'd say. I think he's got a MySpace page with some songs on it. Any idea if an album is actually forthcoming?

tylerw, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:49 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah I've never heard that Seger stuff and would really like to

Shakey Mo Collier, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Dan, do you have a list of what Feelies records are getting the reissue treatment? I'd probably buy them all at this point, having stupidly sold some of them (on vinyl) years ago.

Baked Bean Teeth, Thursday, 8 March 2007 19:44 (seventeen years ago) link

No, I just know they're hoping to get them back in print and working towards that. It may be harder with the second two because they were on a major label. Other then that, all we can do is cross our fingers.

dan selzer, Thursday, 8 March 2007 20:26 (seventeen years ago) link

you can get a "custom burned CD" of the Good Earth over at www.tt.net. The Yung Wu album is there too...

tylerw, Thursday, 8 March 2007 20:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Could've sworn I already posted this to this thread, but: both Disco Not Disco comps and David Mancuso Loft comps. Someone really needs to get on the ball and get these suckers in print again ASAP

Telephone thing, Sunday, 11 March 2007 06:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, also: got confirmation that Fruit Tree is to be reissued, at least in the UK. No idea about a US release, though.

Telephone thing, Sunday, 11 March 2007 07:24 (seventeen years ago) link

The Shockheaded Peters back catalogue seems to be OOP and commanding high prices second hand. Which seems odd for a band that were briefly the next big thing, and didn't sound much like anyone else. Still find sections of 'Not Born Beautiful' running through my head. A lot of it was barely available first time around, though.

M. Ward - "End of Amnesia"

hey now, this one is in print..as it well should be since it's really fucking good...and possibly his best (though i'm partial to transfiguration of vincent, too, which probably wins out in the end)

stephen, Sunday, 11 March 2007 18:10 (seventeen years ago) link

Shock Headed Peters seconded, dammit. Danielle Dax's stuff is probably OOP as well.
