From ZTT.COM:

"For those with an eye ...for the finer detail, 19 October 2009 sees a reissue of Frankie Goes To Hollywood's classic Welcome To The Pleasuredome on ZTT via Union Square Music.

This is a straghtfoward reissue (as opposed to a rerelease, reboot, remaster or even a Deluxe Edition) that places Pleasuredome back on the shelves of physical and virtual record stores in its 25th anniversary year. Further reissues of core ZTT catalogue - including 808 State's 90, Ex:el, Gorgeous and Don Solaris, and The Frames' Fitzcarraldo and Dance the Devil - will follow in the spring of 2010."

So, non-deluxe editions reissued next Spring?

Well, if they do vinyl reissues as well, maybe not so strange! :P

Otherwise... :wink:

I am sure it must mean the 808 remastered deluxe cds, can't see them not using the stock they made last year, though I will attempt to find out.
Vinyl? - I can float the idea. What do people want out of the idea?
Heavier pressings? Deluxe pressings (ie dual vinyl?)

Any sort of vinyl would be nice, gatefold, or heavy or dual, or even quadrouple. Don't know if there will be enough vinyl-lovers like myself though.

They will be the "Deluxe "Editions(2 CDs) ,with New designs on the slip covers , better scanned artwork, and new cat numbers..So thats all good.
I wonder what happens to the old stock? landfill? or export?

Good news. Wonder if they'll get the ex:el colours right this time. Never got or saw a corrected one.

You know I love you but I'm not buying Ex:El again. I've bought it four times already!

Good news though. Let's hope it introduces a younger generation to the delights of 808...since they seem to think that Cascada and Basshunter represent the pinnacle of quality dance.
