Recently I've been treating myself to some of the Marvin Gaye, Supremes and Stevie Wonder albums issued in Japan as mini lp replicas.
The sound quality is superb, and I love the fact they have the original album covers and labels..and take up less space than jewel cases, which also get cracked or broken.
My questions are...and I guess only the powers at Universal can answer these...
1. Why do titles like the Supremes 'Reflections', and Stevie's 'At the beach' get issued in Japan and not elsewhere?
2. Will there be further titles available by the likes of the Four Tops or the Temptations?...and who makes the decision to issue them?
