I still don’t understand how this wasn’t communicated to 10c members today. How did someone find this out

There are plenty of websites out there solely dedicated to announcing newly released vinyl across various shops and platforms as soon as they are announced or pop up.

Thanks! I had no idea such websites existed. Can you recommend any good ones?

Nice. Thank you!

My original copy sounds fantastic, so hope this reissue lives up to it sound quality wise. Lost Dogs reissue, please!

Lost dogs makes sense. Yes it’s a compilation album but it’s unreleased stuff as opposed to a greatest hits compilation.

It seems most artists are not a fan of greatest hits albums as it chops up albums in a way they were never intended to be heard, as one song snippets. I really never thought PJ would be supportive of a greatest hits reissue unless the record company just did it unilaterally. I’m really surprised by this

No longer available to buy online. I think these may have been released too early by accident, you can't find them through the search bar on the site.

You can still find them, they just say "check availability nearby' which suggests they are already sold out.

Yep. They look to be sold out.

Looks like someone at Wal-Mart f'd up
I highly doubt Wal-Mart sold out of these

Were we able to order the Purple Ten from Target online? (I forget)
Or did you have to go to the store?

I'm guessing this is a marketing ploy to drive foot traffic to the actual brick & mortar

They owed Sony a Greatest Hits album, in their record deal. Or they owed Sony another album and decided on a Greatest Hits. Don't remember now.

I think artists appreciate the money a Greatest Hits brings in.

I now a Swedish artist who made the trade of getting all his back-catalog back from the label in exchange for one greatest hits album.

I don't think greatest hits are included in the album deals. That would be separate. Another greatest hits is due though

I'm still surprised no one complained about the price

It's definitely a surprising reissue, as it only covers up to 2003. I'm only speculating, but I'm sure a lot of bands have a "compilation" clause in their contracts with their record companies. I'd have thought there might be a second "greatest hits" release covering 2004 to 2020 before we saw a reissue of this one.

I hope they do a mass release like Target did with the purple Ten.

Loujoe · February 2022

Seems like the going rate for records. Crazy. EV earthlings. 1 record 40 plus tax and shipping. Ouch.
These 75 for 4 lps shipped. Still expensive. Seems like the way it is now. May be a good time to get out of the game...until lost dogs.

J Records is the only record label they released an album for. The rest was under their own Monkey Wrench label. Otherwise we might have seen a 2nd greatest hits. As they already have enough

I would assume Sony is making the moves here.

SVRDhand13 · February 2022

Wait, were half the songs on one copy and half on the other? If so, I'm happy I missed it. Vinyl prices are getting nuts.

See my earlier post. Walmart is not Target. Their limited stock is actually limited. This is sold out.

$35 for a double LP is not that crazy, at least in the last 5 years or so.

They were complaining about Gigaton's price

trying to find in the NY/Long Island area - the site says not available in my area... May take a ride later.

$35 and the $40 for a single LP is outrageous. Should be no more than $25.
