    Why on vinyl – any indication of a physical CD or digital release?

    • Jacob says:

      Curious to that as well. Possibly an excuse to charge a premium.

  2. Dan says:

    Am certainly glad to see it getting a release in *some* format, but have no doubt that it will soon turn up on the net in the form of a ‘digital LP rip’….they are doing themselves a disservice by not making it available to the public who both desire this extended score but do not have any means by which to play LPs.
