Japrocksampler - Latest Reissues - Discogs List

Morning all. I've been slowly tracking down physical copies of the JRS top 50, and there have been so many really great vinyl reissues coming out the last few years, thought I'd make up a handy-dancy Discogs list for the 12 other nerds out there.

After JRS came out, there was a flurry of bootleg lps and cds (mostly from Phoenix Records) that cashed in on the niche craze, but they weren't worth much more than the wax they came on. Some of these re-issues are coming straight from Japan, but even with import fees they are reasonably priced for how good they are made. Other are licensed out. Some may never get proper re-issues.

I've never been inclined to track down original pressings, unless they are cheap and available, so if you are happy hunting and good luck. This list is for the budget conscious, but still addicted to physical copies.

Of course there are many more beyond the top 50, but as JC always has been quite diplomatic in justifying his recommendations, these are all great examples of the period he focuses on.

Take care.
