Shouldn’t the Red Shoes vinyl reissue be out by now? I thought it was due in April.
I already traded in the CDs/vinyl the UB40 issues will replace. Hope they actually come out….
Just hope the new versions are not different from the old masters.
Amazon are showing the UB40 releases as being coming out on
7th August…………………….
So, you’re not expecting the UB40 reissues to land this week then…….
August
Universal have confirmed these aren’t coming out *yet* so no!
