Hm, no SWOD on that list.
I'd be very interested in SAS, SC, KM and DTOF if they are using the
original analog recordings.

not sure about the later digital ones, though

None of their non-Sony releases (Rocka Rolla, SWOD, Demolition or
Jugulator) made the cut. I noticed the double records (Priest Live!
and Nostradamus) didn't make it either, but they would need to be 4
lp's long.

Nostradamus is already available on vinyl. Its sold in a box set with
some added items and i believe it is exclusive to Best Buy. I just saw
it there last week and it looks like they have never sold any because
they are in the same spot when it was released.

Not even remotely interested. Vinyl, a thing of the past.

I see the same box LP Nostradamus box set everytime I go to my local
Best Buy too. I keep wondering if it will ever hit the bargain bin.

I do love my vinyl, but it really depends on the recording process and
the genre of music itself.
For more natural or dirty forms of music, where the "human element"
greatly enhances the experience (such as almost all live or improvised
music, as well as recorded jazz, blues, folk, punk, thrash, BM,
symposium-orchestrated classical, classic 50s/60's rock, african or
south american tribal), then I totally appreciate the warmth and
roundness of a good analog recording on vinyl, scratches and all.
This is part of why I hate overproduction in all of those genres.
Hate, hate, hate!
But for more synthesized genres, like industrial, darkwave, drum &
bass, pop, ether, some forms of prog, and the more surgically precise
forms of metal, I prefer the digital recording and cleaner production,
in which case vinyl is actually suboptimal.

Same here.

Well I guess then no format is the best all around, then.
Personally, I didn't really like vinyl much. Seemed like you play
the record 5 times and it would have added scratches, pops and hiss.
Play them many more times than that and it usually seemed to get
worse. Now I do understand general record releases and some of the new
special ones, the quality is vastly different.

Woah, what were you doing to your records to destroy them like
that?! :)
My oldest surviving vinyl is the Gipsy Kings debut (from 83, NA
release) and it plays as well today as it did then.
You just have to take care of your precious possessions!

One thing, don't loan them out. Ever.
Otherwise, I found that most albums I bought were not high quality.
I didn't actually own a lot of vinyl, CD's came along soon after I had
cash to buy music, and I just went with them for the most part.
Some of the albums would come right out of the package with a lot of
scratches and pops and hiss when you played them. I also had a younger
brother who liked to pull the needle across the record and so on.

I have a few vinyl albums, just a few that I didn't think will ever
be put out on CD, and so. I don't even have a player, and haven't for
more than 10 years.
Precious possessions? If someone were to slip into my house and walk
away with all the vinyl records I have, I am not sure when I would
actually know they were gone. It might be years. :)

I have no vinyls at all. When old albums were started to be reissued
on cd's I basically purchased them on cd and either threw the lp's
away or gave them away.

As I said, I didn't have many to give away. I did sell off some when
I moved several years back. The record shop pretty much got the money
back again, though.
