FIRST LOOK: BLU-SPEC CD 2

Here's our first look at the new Sony Blu-Spec CD 2 editions of A New World Record, Out of the Blue, Discovery and Time.





The Out of the Blue set, like the previous Blu-Spec edition, comes in a rare thicker jewel case to accomodate all the booklets and other items inside.  A New World Record, again like the previous Blu-Spec version, comes in the now rare opaque CD tray and a more bare bones package for some reason.  Uniform design red discs?  Eh.

AND NOW VINYL, TOO...

It appears 'the next batch of three' will get vinyl editions as well - ELO Live, Zoom and Armchair Theatre will all be 2LP sets in the weeks following the CD and download editions.  Release date is May 27, 2013 - again from the UK-based Let Them Eat Vinyl.
