Vinyl fetishist needs to find like-minded people for possible online communication, with common aim of satisfying bizarre craving. Do you, like me, long for the touch and smell of delicious smooth black vinyl……
Yes of course I am referring to the fact that ‘hours…‘ is the first David Bowie studio album (apart from ‘The Buddha Of Suburbia‘) not to be released on the shiny black stuff. Yeah I know that I should ‘get with the programme’ and forget all that old stuff, but I can’t help myself. I have the two versions of the CD, and the mini-disc, (which has slightly different artwork for all you spotters) how much more modern can one be?
So, what I am saying here is that if you love the feel of a big 12″ in your hands, (sorry, it’s the Benny Hill in me!) and a bigger Bowie picture for your money, then join in with this campaign to get a vinyl release for ‘hours…‘
Those smart enough to have snapped up one of the very limited copies of ‘Earthling‘ on vinyl will understand completely what a work of art, and a sensible investment to boot these releases are. But such a limited run is not a particularly viable financial exercise for a record company to undertake, so let’s unite to give them a little nudge in the right direction…..
It’s simple ~ All you have to do is e-mail me at: MrTotalBlamBlam@aol.com with ‘Bowie Vinyl’ in the subject field, I will then forward the petition to the relevant record company blokes, easy eh? The bigger the response we get the more likely this is to happen, so e-mail your friends and feel free to put this request up on your very own site, if you have one. People have the power!
