Abkco has now removed his Instagram Story. Maybe an official announcement soon or another postponement?

Instagram stories are only 24 hours available

They waited this long to throw out the tease...I suspect news should follow shortly. Maybe they're even trying to get some hype before a Christmas release?

It just isn't logical to string fans along and not have some sort of followup.

I can understand the first news release was an error but this was planned.

Just got the email announcement:

Coloured Vinyl In Mono

January Release Date

And I see that on Amazon USA, one can pre-order it for $451!!! Very glad to have pre-ordered it back in July for a staggeringly cheap price!! Hopefully that makes everyone quite happy for the long delay now!

Interesting to me that they chose to enclose both the US and UK versions of all but Between the Buttons. Wonder why that one was excluded.

Ah, I didn't even catch that! Strange that they would include a compilation instead of an actual album though. Not that I'm complaining - Flowers remains one of my favorite 60's albums. Just a gem really, sooooooo many great songs on it. Hell, if they played the whole album plus some warhorses, I'd say that was a stellar show!

Yup, that's pretty pricey. Be over $700 Canadian once taxes and exchange has figured in. I hope my UK order holds, that is going to be about half that amount.

Rolling Stones Announce Colored Vinyl Mono Box Set Featuring 16 LPs

By Paul Sexton · November 14, 2022

The Rolling Stones’ entire released studio output of the 1960s is to come together on the limited edition The Rolling Stones In Mono: Limited Edition Color Vinyl 16LP Box Set.

Each title is being pressed onto a different colored vinyl disc, in a collection that will be released on January 20, 2023 internationally, ex-North America. It comprises 14 mono albums, featuring all of their albums released between 1963 and 1969 as well as a special two-part collection called Stray Cats. This represents 2 LPs of singles A- and B-Sides and the tracks from the group’s The Rolling Stones EP, which came out in January 1964 ahead of their first album.

Stray Cats gathers together every Stones track that isn’t on the other 14 discs, a total of 24 additional songs. They include the group’s first two singles, “Come On” and “I Wanna Be Your Man” and their respective UK B-sides, “I Want To Be Loved” and “Stoned.” Also among the early tracks in that part of the collection are “Fortune Teller,” “Bye Bye Johnny” and the second version of “Poison Ivy.” The second Stray Cats disc has the hits “19th Nervous Breakdown,” “We Love You,” “Street Fighting Man,” and others.

The limited edition set is also numbered and includes a 48-page “lie-flat” booklet featuring a 5,000-word essay by Rolling Stone writer David Fricke as well as color photos. All the music was astered in Direct Stream Digital (DSD) from the original mono master recordings, by the acclaimed Grammy-winning mastering engineer Bob Ludwig, with lacquer cutting by Sean Magee at Abbey Road Studios.

The set contains both the UK and US versions of the Out Of Our Heads and Aftermath albums of 1965 and 1966 respectively. It also acknowledges the differing versions of both that debut LP, 1964’s The Rolling Stones, and 1967’s Between The Buttons, including both incarnations of each.

Brrrrr....
Terrible multi-acid colored. The spirit of the box that is set by black-and-white cover picture is destroyed. No way I'll get this, even if you pay me .

I placed thru Amazon UK for 250 pounds. With the current exchange rate that's about $294 American. Quite happy with the savings and the delay.

The 2016 black Vinyl had 10,000 numbered copies - maybe the 2023 color Vinyl has a similar amount.

Thank you. Just seen on Facebook someone said 5000 were pressed. I see if you buy from rough trade you can get an extra 10% off by signing up for their mailing list so it’ll take the price down to just over £300 after postage
