I would like to announce the pre-order date for the very first vinyl release from us at Silbert Records, which is of course, AN AFTERNOON WITH JOHNSON & FRIENDS -- a reissue of the original album from 1992 as a 2xLP gatefold vinyl set, on pink and grey coloured records, with only 300 copies being pressed.
The original album and all of the bonus tracks have been painstakingly remastered by me -- and the project has been mastered for vinyl by the legendary Don Bartley - arguably the most experienced mastering engineer in Australia.
I'm very thankful to have had the opportunity to rerelease this fantastic album and we have included a fair few unreleased goodies as well, such as demos, instrumentals and Japanese language tracks. You also get a download card so you can have a digital copy of the album, free of charge as well.
Pre-order will begin on December 13th this year with expected ship dates between April-July 2022 -- so stay tuned and keep your eyes on the site!
