I saw this post Ned shared on FB about OLI fucking over A.R. Kane, and that the vinyl re-issue of '69' is ripped from a CD. Does anyone know about D.I's relationship with OLI, or the provenance of the vinyl re-ish?

@olirecords claim to have purchased our entire catalog from @RoughTradeRecs for a few pennies, in perpetuity, w'out our consent knowledge - they refuse to let the rights revert to the band - not so much #MeToo more #MyArtToo #ArtisticSlavery U ever had a powerful label rip u off?— A.R.Kane (@InfoKane) January 2, 2018

Ugh about A.R.Kane and OLI.
I've not had the time to listen to the LP yet, on the weekend perhaps.

OLI seemingly bought up the rights to a job lot of rough trade stuff some years back
