The UK arm of global publishers De Agostini, have launched ‘The Beatles Vinyl Collection‘ a series of magazines that all come with a stereo vinyl copy of a Beatles album.
Issue one is, inevitably, a special price of £9.99 and includes a vinyl copy of the band’s swan-song, 1969’s “Abbey Road”, but going forward (the magazines will be published fortnightly) all issues with single albums will be £16.99 and double and triple albums, £24.99. With 23 issues planned and mention of triples, it’s assumed this series will including Past Masters volumes, ‘Red’ and ‘Blue’ compilations, the ‘1’ album, “Live at the BBC”, Love and more. However the publishers haven’t clarified the full list of titles.

Supported with some TV advertising, De Agnostini are hoping fans will check out their webpage and subscribe to the whole series, and they’ve lined up plenty of incentives to lure in the punters, including T-shirts, album artwork display frames and two ‘high quality vinyl storage boxes’.

Jesus and Mary Chain to Release 11-LP Box Set

Last December  an 11xLP vinyl box set from the Jesus and Mary Chain was released through Demon Music Group, marking the band’s 30th anniversary, Along with all six of JAMC’s studio records, the set will collect a live album, a 2xLP set of BBC studio sessions, an LP of B-sides and rarities, a 32-page book of interviews and photos, and a poster.
All six of the Scottish noise pop legends’ studio LPs will be collected, remastered from original tapes, including 1985′s Psychocandy, 1987′s Darklands, 1989′s Automatic, 1992′s Honey’s Dead, 1994′s Stoned & Dethroned and 1998′s Munki. The included live album is 2003’s Live In Concert, recorded in 1992 and 1995, but on vinyl for the first time. The BBC Sessions 2xLP collects recordings from 1984, 1985, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1994, and 1998. Check out the complete tracklist here.
The B-sides and rarities LP will be assembled based on votes from fans. Voting runs for a week starting today, here, where anyone can choose one of 80 different titles. Strangely enough, you can also upload a photo of your own face, while voting, for potential inclusion on the box set’s poster.
The Complete Vinyl Collection will be available here. (Note: it does not appear to be available in the U.S.–you’ll have to ask an overseas friend to pick it up, along with your Morrissey book.)
