[Heeplist] Re releases

[Tapio Minkkinen]

All Heep albums originally released on Bronze Records records from  
Very 'Eavy Very 'Umble to Head First will be re-released on vinyl by  
BMG in October-November 2015. They are available for preordering at  
least on Amazon:

This is not necessarily the same that Ken was talking about. From what  
he mentioned in Facebook I understood these are just in the planning  
stage and would be released sometime in 2016. My guess is they put the  
vinyls out now and there will be some kind of "deluxe edition" CD's  
released next year. Just my speculation of course as there is no  
actual info on this.

The rights of most of the Heep back catalogue is nowadays owned by BMG  
and it seems they are taking more interest in these than what  
Universal Music did. Universal had the rights since 2007 after they  
bought Sanctuary and in 2013 they sold it to BMG. This will be the  
first time since the 1980's that the complete Heep back catalogue is  
re-released on vinyl. Untill now there have been only individual  
re-releases of albums from time to time.
