#NowPlaying #Music #OutOfPrint #Reissue

Do you have an old favourite record that's never, ever been reissued? Something not currently available to purchase, stream, or download (save subpar rips or Youtube fan uploads).

I got lots: old Texas hippy shit like the two mid-70s Greezy Wheels albums and Lost Gonzo Band's 3rd (and best) Signs of Life LP from 1978 . . . LA artpunk stuff like BPeople's self-titled 1981 Faulty Products LP or the 1st wild Leaving Trains LP on Bemisbrain from 1984 . . . even Eddie "King" Roeser's post Urge Overkill project, Electric Airlines, whose digital album only saw limited release via download on his website in the late 90s. Me I'd be the first in line to buy a new, authorised release of any of these.

What about you?
