Barmy wrote:The obsession with 12" is a mystery to me. It recurs frequently on this site. Is it because they are "rare", or because you enjoy listening to a good song being amateurishly extended? 12-inch was a CONSUMERIST device and very few of them have artistic merit. They aren't great just because they are "rare".
FanFan wrote:Just adding my support to the notion that you can charge $20 for a CD that's slightly more cultish. There are also strange opportunities out there — I can think of a few acts who own their masters, but aren't in a position to release the albums themselves. Jim Skafish is going through that right now with his first IRS album, as he's struggling to put together the numbers for a physical reissue.
