I'm sure this topic has probably been covered before, but here goes again..I'm not a die hard vinyl collector, but I'm looking to start collecting the Pixies catalogue on vinyl. I've seen a couple of things on ebay, 4ad seem to be out of stock, is it my imagination or is it quite hard to get most pixies stuff on vinyl anymore ?
Also a long shot, but trying to get my hands on death to the pixies box set vinyl, my brother has one of them, does anyone know how many were pressed? and if I have any chance of getting one now ?

ok, here's the official line on the Pixies vinyl...
for god knows how long, someone else had hold of all the relevant parts we needed to be able to manufacture them again - we did regain possession of them not so long ago, and it is our intention to make all the albums available on vinyl once more. There is no timescale, and I'm sure theres probably a lot more work involved, but as soon as I know anything more, I'll post on here... just don't hold your breath
as far as the DTTP vinyl, we had a load of them back in stock, but they sold out ages ago, and its unlikely we'll ever get any more - I'm not sure how many were made, but it would have been for all the 4ad covered territories, so a fair few! (to be said with northern accent there)
I'd advise, if you can get the regular albums for less than £10 on ebay, go for it, but if you're not in a hurry, then 4ad will be making them available again soon - and should be £10 with shipping as extra. |
