RUSH: Japanese Mini-LP Reissues Due In June

April 6, 2009

According to a posting on the RUSH fan site Power Windows, Warner Music Japan will reissue RUSH's first 12 studio albums this June as mini-lp SHM-CDs. Although the data itself is not remastered, these "super-high material" CDs purportedly improve the original audio through the use of new plastic material which is much clearer than normal CDs, thus reducing mechanical distortion and improving resolution. There are already some detrators to this technology, however.

RUSH fan Jun'ya Suzuki of the Japanese RUSH collector site The Sphere is working with Warner Music Japan to faithfully reproduce the artwork of the original first-edition Canadian LPs (i.e., the debut album has the red cover, etc.). Only the first 12 studio albums will be released at this time, with future releases dependent on actual sales.
