Capitol Records Will Reissue a Dozen Radiohead 12″ Singles
Capitol Records is really rolling out the Radiohead vinyl reissues. The newest announcement includes TWELVE represses of various 12″ singles. They include “Drill”, “Creep”, “High and Dry”, “Fake Plastic Trees”, “Just”, “Street Spirit (Fade Out)”, “Paranoid Android”, “Karma Police”, “No Surprises”, “Pyramid Song”, “2 + 2 = 5″, and “My Iron Lung”. The releases will all be limited edition, 180 gram, 45rpm audiophile pressings. They don’t come out till April, but you can preorder them for $11.99 each at Insound.com.
so whats on the other side of the LP? the very expensive single song LP? and since when is “the artwork at the original size” a good thing? isnt the bonus of LP packaging that you can make BIG artwork?
this is silly
hopefully these will at least contain the original b-sides. i owned a few of “the bends” singles on CD back in the day and they had some solid non-album tracks.
capitol seems to be making a cash grab on the vinyl hype, though. steve miller band’s “greatest hits” audiophile reissue really?
“artwork at the original size” agreed something don’t smell right.
