Truth Vinyl Re-issue
Truth is planned for re-issue on vinyl in August:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/This-Truth-...reet+preachers Not sure if this will have anything to do with its 20th anniversary next year, I wouldn't be surprised if it actually gets pushed back so it can coincide with it. This will be the third time this album has be released on vinyl (after the original and Music on Vinyl editions) |

Sony are gradually reissuing various MoV titles, using the same plates, as part of their catalogue. It'll be pretty much identical, minus the outer bag and possibly slightly cheaper feeling sleeve.

Any idea if they'll re-issue Lipstick Traces on vinyl?

I actually saw a used original pressing of this yesterday in a shop.
Anyone know if it's substantially better than the MOV release? I doubt it considering it's also crammed on 2 sides. This album HAS to be released across two pieces of vinyl. And agreed re: Lipstick Traces. Would LOVE to have that on vinyl.

This would have a be a double vinyl release, right? At over an hour, I don't see Truth being on one platter.

The MOV 1LP issue is probably the best sounding long vinyl I've heard. It doesn't suffer much from the length at all.

I took the Hull ferry to Amsterdam and found a copy in a record shop there. It looks like a re-issue, for there.

Know your enemy was re-released on one LP and that was longer. I'm not sure the difference in quality will be that noticeable anyway. Double albums for 10-12 songs are a good excuse to charge more in my humblest of opinions

No, there is definitely a loss of sonic quality once you pass the 18-22 minute mark per side. You can get away with more for less busy music but neither Truth nor KYE are in that category. It's ridiculous they were ever done on a single piece of vinyl.

You can't tell with my speakers I wonder if that's why we're back to seeing albums that are 40 -45 minutes in length .. so they sound good on vinyl

Thing is, there were plenty of 50-odd minute single albums in the pre-CD days.
It's also worth bearing in mind that someone like Visconti is incredibly well versed in sound and will probably hear stuff that the average listener won't. I have 60 minute albums on single vinyl which don't sound noticeably quieter than 35 minute albums, so I tend to take it all with a pinch of salt. |

That photo reminds me of the well-known* limerick...
A Manics fan, let's call him 'Lionel' Saw albums in the clouds, a whole sky-full He walked off a roof Thinking 'This Is My Truth...' And his head had turned into the vinyl *'well-known' in the loosest sense, i.e. not at all.

Looks nice How much is it? About £20? Can't say I'll bother, a lot of money for something I'd play once and just stare at other times, but I guess it's nice for a collector to have. I only have a few Manics singles on vinyl, that's it, but at least I have the limited to 1000 Underdogs vinyl which I'm pleased with
