Question about the 'Big Hits #2 US" release. I (think I) have the latest release from October 2023 with barcode 018771213611 (https://www.discogs.com/master/54334-The-Rolling-Stones-Through-The-Past-Darkly-Big-Hits-Vol-2?sort=year&sort_order=desc&image=28692676.SW1hZ2U6MTAyMDQ1MjQ0)

Discogs says it's a 'worldwide' release, which is a bit odd, because any other re-issue from these series is or US, or EU. It could be true though, because nor on the back cover, neither on the label there is any mentioning of EU or US.

What is also a bit strange is that on all other re-issues I own so far (10), all, have hand etched the text 'SELECTION # <number>' in the vinyl runout. This issue of Big hits #2, does not have this. So I wonder if the copy I have is the one issued on October 20 (as part of the re-issue program. The barcode suggests it should be. Any ideas?

Isn't there a sticker or a Inkjet print on the shrink foil where the LP was pressed (e.g. Germany or Canada) - [iorr.org] ?

It certainly wasn’t Canada, maybe Germany or Czech Republic, but not sure. This raises the question: what is the location of the printed info about where the lp was pressed? Is it the back cover, the label or the info on the sticker on the shrink?

It's usually located on the rear cover, see the pictures in my above link.

The first two should already be out, did anyone see these 'in the wild' yet?

When looking at the online stores, they're not announced yet - even in the United States or Japan.

It seems that vinyl shortage has somehow postponed their release. Still, I believe that ABKCO won’t give up completing their program. Let’s wait…

Is it really due to vinyl shortage? I wonder how well the previous versions in the series sold.. With the mono box, the SHM CD's and a lot of recent RSD and anniversary editions, I cannot imagine that they sold a lot of them..

They stopped the "Clearly Vinyl" series, or whatever it was called just a few years ago. That saw the re-release of 6 titles in clear vinyl before they abruptly stopped.

From memory it was BB, LIB, GYYYO, 12x5, Hot Rocks...and...I forget the last one.

The waiting is over... the programme will be completed, even if with some delays.
Talking about the GLIYWI! re-issue, it should be the album, not the EP.
Bye, Luca

I was lucky enough to purchase Rolling Stones 1 of the "Stones In Mono Black vinyl Box" brand new a month ago for €23.99.
