Does anyone possess insider Drag City information regarding the Royal Trux vinyl reissues? The first three albums have been reissued so I'm wondering if they've embarked upon a program to reissue the rest of the band's catalog, or is this all the vinyl love that will be bestowed upon us?

well, the 1st 3 had all been oop for quite some time, so it made sense to repress em, right? suppose the same might be true of the 3LP box, thank you, sweet sixteen. but the rest (like cats & dogs, accelerator, veterans) were all easily available a couple years back - supplies have only dried up in the last year or two. represses might be premature, dunno.

Sorry for the belated reply - appreciate the responses. I acquired the represses, and successfully hunted down original pressings of the remaining albums as I wanted to ensure I had them all in case no further reissues eventuated. The OCD collector in me will probably force me to buy whatever else they reissue so I have a complete set of reissues (and I'm just now wondering if it will drive me crazy not having originals of the first three...such is the nature of obsession)

Certainly you can track down originals with a little effort, and more than a little $$$. I had no luck with various record stores but was successful through Gemm, Ebay, Amazon Marketplace, and the Discogs marketplace.

I understand Sweet Sixteen was never released on vinyl but would love to see it in that format. Would make a nice double album. Gatefold toilet!
