Red Vinyl Update

There's been a delay with the production of the hotly anticipated vinyl edition of Red. Here's what Panegyric have said about the glitch.

Apologies to those of you who were expecting to have received your copy of this by now but it has been held up due to unforeseen circumstances.

The King Crimson 200gram vinyl series
is well respected among vinyl lovers.

DGM has a brilliantly maintained archive of master tapes & artwork
. Loud Mastering do a wonderful job with the cutting of each vinyl release & Vinyl Factory are one of the few plants who can manufacture 200gram vinyl to the standard that buyers expect from such releases.

All of these processes take time & while we started on this release back in February - fully expecting to meet a late April/early May release date, that just hasn't been possible due to delays in the manufacturing process.


Any such delays are always disappointing but, we'd rather get it right - even if that means getting it later than initially anticipated.


The good news is that we are expecting to start receiving finished pressing within the next two weeks - allowing a further week to ten days to get the product to distributors/mail order warehouse etc. & the vinyl should be heading for individual customers at the start of July - almost thirty-nine years to the day since recording commenced on this very special album.


Thanks for your patience.
