RustyShackelford Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Hey guys, I've got a copy of the darkside of the moon by the lips and I was just wondering what the difference between the rsd press and the press that's available now is? They are both on clear vinyl and came with a cd. Apparently the rsd edition goes for a lot of money and the other one for about $25. I have no idea what edition I have and I was just curious if any of you had both copies or knew the differences between them? Thanks for helping me out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfingelectrode Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I'm pretty sure the clear version is out of print... WB was planning on releasing it only on seafoam green as a limited RSD release, but decided to press more at the last minute, but the plant had run out of the green color, so that's where the clear ones come from. Both version were available on RSD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyShackelford Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 So I guess I got lucky and scored a rsd copy at a record store a year after it was originally released? That's weird but good news for me I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfingelectrode Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 The seafoam green version is still in print... it was originally going to only be a limited RSD release, but WB decided to keep it in print when they realized how high the demand was.

RustyShackelford Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 Ones on popsike say that the clear is rsd though. I'm not sure, I'm not too familiar with lips vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somethingvinyl Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Pretty sure that the clear was for RSD Great Britian last year and sea-foam green was RSD America. But I could be mistaken. It's definitely more limited since sea-foam green is widely available still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reptilianoverlord Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I ordered mine from the Flaming Lips website around RSD time.. got a clear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rue Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Brought my copy on RSD 2010 here in the UK- clear. Pal picked his copy up on the same day (Rough Trade)- seafoam. So that's that sorted ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itmustbereal Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I'm pretty sure this is as much a mystery now as it was last RSD. Its a great album though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
