Demon / Edsel stock catastrophe! — We regret to announce all Edsel reissue stock lost in Sony warehouse fire —
The Sony DADC distribution warehouse in Enfield was destroyed by fire on the lawless night of August 8th. As well as the much-publicised loss to the so-called indie labels, reissue specialist Demon/Edsel lost all of its CD stock. Pete's mail-order operation Hillside Music holds only a small stock of its own, and the economics of the record business make a new pressing unlikely. Apart from a few copies still on the shelves, Pete's back catalogue is once again unavailable to buy. These are the ones we lost:
Beware Of The Beautiful Stranger
CD reissue
Driving Through Mythical America
CD reissue
A King At Nightfall / The Road Of Silk
Double CD reissue
Secret Drinker / Live Libel
Double CD reissue
CDs on the Hillside label are still available, including:
