David Sylvian announces vinyl reissues


David Sylvian continues to reissue his magnificent and timeless back catalog on vinyl. Today he announced the reissue of four albums spanning the years 1984 though 1987 which will arrive on vinyl February 22nd.

Sylvian's debut solo album from 1984 Brilliant Trees (1LP), 1985's previously cassette-only collection Alchemy - An Index Of Possibilities (2LP), 1986's Gone To Earth (2LP), and 1987's Secrets Of The Beehive (1LP) have all been pressed on 180 gm vinyl for the first time ever. All of the albums include a download card and three of the releases include new artwork: Alchemy - An Index Of Possibilities includes new artwork and rare photographs; Gone To Earth includes brand new artwork and rare photographs; and Secrets Of The Beehive features new artwork based on Nigel Grierson's original photographs. 

So far Sylvian hasn't posted a pre-order link through his store, but all four releases are currently available to pre-order over at Rough Trade.
