Super Deluxe Edition:

Madonna‘s first greatest hits set, 1990’s The Immaculate Collection will be reissued on double vinyl in June.

 

This set has already sold a staggering 30m copies worldwide and contains 17 tracks. At the time, Madonna had released four studio albums (Madonna (1983), Like A Virgin (1984), True Blue (1986) and Like A Prayer (1989)) and had contributed to a few soundtracks including Who’s That Girl and I’m Breathless (the Dick Tracy OST).

 

As an indication of just how many big hits Madonna had accumulated at this point, there was no place for the Who’s That Girl single or True Blue despite the fact that both songs reached number one in the UK (Pop Quiz: Has any other act left ever left two number ones off their first greatest hits?)

 

Justify My Love and Rescue Me were the ‘new’ offerings, while many of the 15 other hits were edited remixed variants and not necessarily the single versions (Like A Prayer being a good example).

 

This double vinyl edition of The Immaculate Collection will be issued by Rhino on 1 June 2018.

Released tomorrow, available on Amazon UK for £25. I probably shouldn't buy this as I'm skint but I'm so tempted! :lol:

#62 on the UK midweeks! Not sure what its chances are for remaining Top 100, but it would be the first time since 2008 if it holds on.

Going to use this thread for all reissues...

Super Deluxe Edition:

Although we wait in vain for Warners to deliver any kind of Madonna deluxe reissues, they are certainly keeping the vinyl coming, since a few days after The Immaculate Collection was reissued as a two-LP set, a new listing has appeared on a couple of retail sites for a white vinyl pressing of Like A Virgin.

 

Previously, the 1984 album (produced by Nile Rodgers) was available in the UK as a clear vinyl pressing, exclusive to Sainsbury’s supermarket, although in reality it became quite easy to get hold of a copy across Europe and beyond (see the price comparison widget below).

 

There is no official announcement for this new vinyl edition as yet, but until SDE hears otherwise we will assume this is the standard album (without Into The Groove) pressed on… er, white vinyl. Also, at the time of writing the Amazon UK price can be taken with a big pinch of salt… I fully expect this to come down to something around the £20 mark.

 

Like A Virgin on white vinyl should be released on 3 July 2018.

I expected the vinyl release of the Immaculate Collection to put the album back in the official charts.
I thought it would be snapped up. If its current position is #126 it has likely sold close to 500 copies.

It’s hardly been promoted at all !

If they changed the sleeve it would have sold

The odd thing about Immaculate Collection in the midweeks is that it's showing as having sold 0 downloads and 0 streaming units throughout the week. It is actually available on download & streaming platforms and I find it hard to believe it's only generating physical sales.

 

I bought the vinyl by the way. :wub:

#9 on the UK vinyl chart; #57 on the sales-only chart.

 

The release also made #11 on the Dutch vinyl chart and #4 on the Italian vinyl chart (#93 on the main chart).

Tempted by this, I have the pink vinyl of Confessions and wanna buuild my vinyl collection more.

The Confessions vinyl looks so good!

 

It is *.* hot pink and uber gay

I did feel Madonna would be Top 40 this week in the early midweeks with Like A Virgin.

With a position of #46 its likely it wont stay on the chart come Friday.

The Immaculate Collection really needed to be released on light blue vinyl, I would have snapped that up!
