In Prague yesterday I found a new, still sealed, copy of Alvaro Soler‘s Mar de Colores (Version Extendida) for 1100kč (~46€) and snapped it up coz it is retailing for over 120€ on discogs (with shipping and taxes it’s 160€+)

Interesting that the HMV vinyl week exclusives haven’t exactly flown out this year. Pretty much everything is still in stock. With the cost of living crisis, is the resurgence in the format and the demand for colourful variants finally reaching its end?

I wonder! Some of the options were disappointing from a pop perspective - Mariah and J.Lo's albums have had recent European pressings so no real incentive to get those just because of a different colour.
HMV messed up Avril Lavigne's Let Go. It has the original artwork, original 13-track track list, and those 13 tracks are even printed on the centre labels. However, the vinyl plays the 19 tracks of the 20th Anniversary Edition (which are alternative versions). So I'm disappointed with that, I was after the nostalgia of the original version of the album. Quite the error! I think I'll return it. If I'd really wanted the 20th Anniversary Edition I could have got that from Amazon for almost £10 less than HMV charged. |

I was trying to be good and not spend any more money this summer but then people started dropping things I had been waiting for so that flew out the window rather fast. Now I have 1989 TV, Käärijä, Erika Vikman, and naturally The Sugababes, all on order.

This year’s theme has been confirmed as the ’90s, following previous celebrations that included the ’80s, women in music and debut albums. It will also help to honour 75 years of the album LP format. Now in its sixth edition, National Album Day sees the music community come together each year to celebrate and promote the art of the album. National Album Day is again presented in association with official broadcast partner BBC Sounds. As well as artist ambassadors to support the initiative, National Album Day will include specially reissued albums and new releases, as well as promotional events and other activities. National Album Day is organised jointly by the BPI and ERA. "We’re looking forward to not only celebrating the albums that shaped the decade but also to championing undiscovered gems" - Kim Bayley Sophie Jones, BPI chief strategy officer & interim CEO, said: “So long as storytelling remains central to making great music, the album will always occupy a special place in the hearts of artists and fans alike – and the ’90s were an especially rich decade for the format, with diverse genres, spanning Britpop, hip-hop and trip-hop among others, and brilliant artists who went on to become mainstays of our popular culture. We invite everyone with a love of the album to join us on this year’s National Album Day journey of appreciation and discovery that will highlight, as it does each year, the enduring appeal of the art of the album and celebrate a truly memorable decade of albums that are now inspiring the next generation of talent.” Kim Bayley, chief executive, ERA, said: “With the album celebrating the iconic milestone of 75 years, it couldn’t be a more exciting time to delve into a decade so rich in musical heritage and culture. From giving birth to legendary genres to launching the careers of many much-loved artists, the ’90s is a decade that continues to connect and bring joy to music lovers, young and old, to this day. We’re looking forward to not only celebrating the albums that shaped the decade but also to championing undiscovered gems and those that have inspired so many of today’s generation of artists.” The event is supported across the breadth of BBC Sounds radio, TV and online channels. It is backed by the wider recorded music community, taking in UK record labels; AIM, PPL and other trade associations; independent record stores and specialist chains, such as HMV; and online retailers and digital/streaming services including Amazon, Spotify and YouTube. QUOTE NATIONAL ALBUM DAY ANNOUNCES LINEUP OF EXCLUSIVE 90S RELEASES & REISSUES TO COINCIDE WITH ANNUAL EVENT ON SATURDAY 14TH OCTOBER National Album Day today announces the exclusive list of limited edition 90s albums that are being released for the annual event celebrating the art of the album on Saturday 14th October. The special titles will be available to purchase in retailers across the UK on NAD itself, and can also be pre-ordered from 9am on Wednesday 13th September. Held on Saturday 14th October, National Album Day will celebrate the 90s and the milestone of 75 years of the album format. National Album Day is presented in association with official audio partner Bowers & Wilkins and official broadcast partner BBC Sounds. Last week, music icons Gabrielle, Declan McKenna, Tricky and Nuno Bettencourt were announced as this year’s NAD artist ambassadors. Albums being reissued or released for National Album Day (See full list at end) One of the UK’s most successful and beloved artists, National Album Day ambassador Gabrielle has enjoyed a remarkable resurgence in recent years. To mark the start of her huge ‘30 Years of Dreaming’ headline tour, Gabrielle’s No.1 third solo album Rise is being reissued on vinyl. A huge commercial success, the album spent three weeks at No.1 on the UK Albums Chart and achieved 4× Platinum status, with the iconic title track also topping the UK Singles Chart. You've Come a Long Way, Baby proved to be Fatboy Slim’s global breakthrough album on its release in October 1998, peaking at No.1 on the UK Albums Chart and earning him a Brit Award. To mark its 25th anniversary, the album has been remastered at half speed in the best available audio quality possible for National Album Day. It’s been 30 years since the release of blur’s second studio album Modern Life Is Rubbish, regarded as one of the defining releases of the era which saw the band continue to revolutionise the sound of English popular music. This National Album Day, fans can get their hands on a special limited edition of the record on 2LP transparent orange vinyl. R.E.M.’s eighth studio album Automatic for the People received widespread critical acclaim upon release in 1992, when it reached No. 1 in the UK and went on to top the UK Albums Chart a further three times the following year. The record produced some of the band’s best-known songs including ‘Everybody Hurts,’ ‘Man on the Moon,’ and ‘Nightswimming’. A limited edition 180-gram yellow LP reissue of the album will be released exclusively on National Album Day. Originally released in 1997, Time Out of Mind is hailed as one of Bob Dylan's best albums, going on to win three Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year in 1998. The record will be re-released on limited edition 2LP clear gold vinyl. Garbage’s second studio album Version 2.0 was heralded as a bold progression from their self-titled debut album upon its release in 1998, and went on to sell over four million copies worldwide, matching the success of its predecessor. This 2LP Gatefold Vinyl comes as an exclusive for National Album Day, and is the first time the record has been pressed on transparent blue coloured vinyl. Dannii Minogue’s hit third studio album Girl, which featured the UK Dance Chart topping singles ‘All I Wanna Do’, ‘Everything I Wanted’ and ‘Disremembrance’, has been remastered and reissued for National Album Day, and will be available on 2LP and as an expanded CD box set, featuring a wealth of exclusive material. Pop group S Club are releasing a picture disc edition of their platinum selling debut album ‘S Club’ on vinyl for the very first time, featuring the smash hit singles ‘Bring It All Back’, ‘S Club Party’ & ‘Two In A Million / You’re My Number One’. Dinosaur Jr. celebrate the 30th anniversary of the indie rock classic Where You Been with an exclusive limited edition reissue on double splatter vinyl. It received widespread critical acclaim on release and was the band’s first UK Top 10 album. Grace is the only studio album by American singer-songwriter Jeff Buckley, originally released on August 23, 1994. Frequently cited by critics as one of the greatest albums of all time, it features Buckley’s definitive cover of Hallelujah. The album will be reissued on lilac wine coloured vinyl. Legendary hip-hop group Wu-Tang Clan released their iconic debut album Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) on November 9, 1993. Its gritty, distinctive sound created a blueprint for hardcore hip-hop during the 1990s and is regarded as one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time. The record is being pressed on limited edition gold marbled vinyl for its 30th anniversary, Now in its sixth edition, National Album Day sees the music community come together each year to celebrate and promote the art of the album. This year’s 90s theme will look to shine a light on a profoundly rich decade for music and album making that skipped between Britpop, Dance and Hip Hop; gave us national treasures Take That and global phenomenon the Spice Girls; and saw diverse genres ranging from dance, house and techno to R&B, rap and reggae and to grunge and industrial rock, among many others, rise to reach their full cultural expression – in the UK and globally. National Album Day is again presented in association with official audio partner Bowers & Wilkins and official broadcast partner BBC Sounds, and will pay tribute to artists who tell their stories behind these significant and influential bodies of work. Artist ambassadors tied into the theme – both those that came to the fore during the 1990s and current new and emerging talent that are inspired by its music; specially reissued albums and new releases; and promotional events and other activities will be announced in due course alongside further updates. Since its launch in 2018, NAD has been supported by a broad range of artist ambassadors, including Kylie Minogue, Joy Crookes, Sharleen Spiteri, Lewis Capaldi, Mark Ronson, La Roux, Elbow, Paloma Faith, Blossoms, Alice Cooper, Novelist, Tom Odell, Mahalia, Toyah Willcox and Jazzie B. Last year Franz Ferdinand, India Arkin, KSI, The Mysterines, Sam Ryder, and The Staves were the latest talents to add their voices as passionate advocates of the long player. Typically benefitting from around a week-long build up, NAD has hosted a variety of activities such as listening events with album platforms including Classic Album Sundays, Pitchblack Playback, The Record Club, Tape Notes and Tim’s Listening Party; live performances; in-store artist appearances and record store promotions, street art murals; and album sleeve artwork exhibitions. Renowned audio brand, Bowers & Wilkins, continues its support for National Album Day as official audio partner. Built on a passion for music, Bowers & Wilkins has been on an unrelenting pursuit of the highest quality listening experiences for music fans for over 60 years, always delivering sound that remains true to how the artist intended their album to be heard. https://www.nationalalbumday.co.uk/news/nat...y-14th-october/ |

These labels are trying to bankrupt me...AGAIN!
I'll get Corrs and S Club for sure, probably Dannii too. Also tempted by Robert Miles. I won't grab them but nice to see names like Lighthouse Family, Shola Ama and Gabrielle on there. |

I'm probably most interested in the Help album out of those. There's some good ones in the list but I have all the others ones I like and I'm really being good about not getting them again just because they are on pretty vinyl - must resist the orange blur one!

...and I've relented already
 and bought the Leftfield one as it's one of my favourite ever albums. Spotted it for £27 with free postage and decided that was probably cheap for what it is.

Definitely looking forward some of these! The Corrs, Garbage and Catatonia and even Gabrielle and Lighthouse Family!
Was hoping to see Talk On Corners listed. Hopefully they’ll issue it soon anyway. |

It's crazy that such a huge album (the biggest selling of 1998) has never been issued on vinyl. Just shows how far the format had fallen out of fashion in the 90s.
I love Forgiven, Not Forgotten, but I would really like Talk On Corners too - that's my favourite. |

New Order have announced a re-issue of their classic 'Substance' compilation, imo one of the finest examples of a best of.
I couldn't resist so I've snapped up the red/blue vinyl edition. Tempted by the 4 CD set too. |

Snapped up last year's NAD pressing of 'Enter The Wu Tang (36 Chambers)' so no need to buy it this year. I wonder why they are pressing it for a 2nd consecutive year?
Not much records for me in this list except for Blur & Nas tbh |

Picked up the Corrs and Lighthouse Family today- I do want more but I’ll have to wait until I’m paid!
I did have a £25 voucher for my birthday from my sister for a second hand record store near me and this morning I picked up Tin Planet by Space-continuing the 90s theme! It must have been a copy from 1998 as I’m not sure there been a release recently-and it’s signed by the band too! |
