Vinyl re-release of "Easy Action"

I recently purchased a vinyl re-release of "Easy Action". There isn't any mention of the release year, neither on the back cover nor on the labels (Palm Tree), but I assume that the release is fairly recent. I ordered the LP new and received it wrapped in plastic wrap. The vinyl is housed in a (thick) single sleeve (instead of gatefold) and the catalogue number is WS 1845. Does anyone know if this vinyl edition came out the same time as Rhino's CD re-release?

I listened to the album today and was a bit surprised to hear the "surprise outro" of "Below Your Means" being omitted - that is until I turned the record over and heard the outro kicking off the B-side.

I don't think so. Is there any informaton about which country this from on the album cover or labels?

"Made in U.S.A." on labels.

That is bizarre. Similar to what 8-tracks did. Also,where did you order it from? I did a quick look at Rohan Cox' site and didnt see anything that matches. If I were to guess, it might be pirated or at least unauthorised in some way.

I ordered the album from a Finnish record store. According to CDandLP.com, it was released on August 17, 2009 and is a "repro release of the original LP release".

They're all over ebay as well. This is an official release, but how it went under the radar is beyond me, and all of us, for that matter.

Upon further review I see you are correct. Too bad all have stock photos. Petri,maybe you can supply some pics of what you have?

In any event,with this release,Im to assume my sealed original copy is now going to go down in value.

Why? This re-issue has a glitch and is not a gatefold.
