One of Record Store Day 2012 most wanted releases gets a second pressing. Phish 1989 debut album Junta comes to vinyl yet again (and fingers crossed it doesn't skip during Esther.
The second pressing of 'Junta' on vinyl will hit stores October 1, 2013. It is available for pre-order now at Phish Dry Goods. The first vinyl pressing was originally released on Record Store Day. Each LP is pressed onto 180g audiophile grade vinyl created from the original stereo master reels with lacquers cut by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. Includes a free MP3 download of the entire album (transferred from the new vinyl master). This second pressing IS NOT foil stamped and not limited. Pre-Order here.
Junta was recorded at Euphoria Sound Studios in Revere, Massachusetts in 1987 and 1988 on 16-track 2" tape and was mixed to 1/4" stereo reels. In addition to writing and performing all the music, the band produced the album themselves. The album was originally self-released on cassette tape in May 1989 with packaging created by the band (included in the new vinyl package). The album was remastered and re-released as a double CD (and cassette) in October 1992. Junta was certified Gold.
