14 Rush albums being repressed in 2015


Recommended Posts

 

All titles will be reissued on high-quality VINYL with a download card for Digital Audio version, high resolution Digital Audio releases, while three titles will also be released on Blu-ray Pure Audio.

Earlier this year, Universal Music Enterprises (UMe) kicked off its own celebration of the band’s 40th anniversary with the reissue of Rush’s self-titled 1974 debut.

In 2015, vocalist/bassist/keyboardist Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson and drummer Neil Peart, who joined the band in July, 1974, shortly after the release of that first album and two weeks before the group’s inaugural U.S. tour, will see the reissue of the remaining 14 albums in their Mercury catalog in chronological order. Starting on January 27 with Fly By Night, which will be available in high-quality vinyl with a download code for a 320kbps MP4 vinyl ripped Digital Audio album download; high resolution Digital Audio editions in DSD (2.8mHz), 192khz / 24-bit, 96kHz / 24-bit; and an additional Blu-Ray Pure Audio version with 96kHz / 24-bit 5.1 surround sound and stereo. A Farewell to Kings and Signals are the other two albums which will be reissued in Blu-Ray Pure Audio. The remaining 13 titles will be released one or two a month through the end of the year.

I will probably pick at least a few of these up to replace thrashed used copies I've picked up over the years. I heard great things about the first album's repress that came out so I grabbed that on Amazon this morning. My copy is almost unlistenable. I guess that's what happens when you buy a Rush album in the $1 bin.

Who's Canadian bacon do I gotta fry to get a Presto/Roll The Bones/Test For Echo pressings round here?

 

Don't forget Counterparts (which I've never pulled the trigger on since It's so damn pricey).

 

I scored nice copies of Presto and Roll the Bones cheap years ago, but the lack of Atlantic re-issues is frustrating. Music on Vinyl or someone should get involved.

my sis used to work at a used record store and one year for xmas gave me pretty much all of these. that being said, not all of them are in the best shape. I will most definitely be grabbing caress the steel cause my copy is in real rough shape. and hemispheres just because its my favorite record. the reissues with blu ray audio included are tempting though...
