The most surprising thing about this announcement was the lack of a green vinyl format, which I was sure they'd go for... and then I remembered. It's Record Store Day in April and once Rhino have taken your money for the black vinyl, they'll reveal an exclusive coloured version! Mark my words!
Speaking of Rhino, this will have come from them, rather than the band, and they will simply have participated/approved, I expect. Same as with 'Secrets'. I don't think they're jumping around with album re-issues. As I understand it, they have no desire to re-issue the Virgin catalogue and there are no plans to do so. I believe their manager has said they just don't want to do them. A great shame if it's true.
