Guest Admin Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 VARIOUS ARTISTS "Dark Was The Night" triple LP http://stores.channeladvisor.com/vinylhome/Items/652637283518 Great compilation featuring a who's who of indie rock and major artists and comp claims that every track is exclusive. The fact that this is going towards a great cause is a bonus. Dark Was The Night will be released on February 17th, 2009. It’s comprised of 31 exclusive tracks and it will be available as a double cd/triple vinyl/download and will benefit the Red Hot Organization – an international charity dedicated to raising money and awareness for HIV and AIDS through popular culture. They are the people responsible for albums including No Alternative, Red Hot and Blue and many more, and this is their 20th year, and this is the 20th release!
