Ride - OX4_ The Best Of Ride [12", 2LP]

Now that RIDE has reunited and has just started touring again for the first time since they broke up in '96, this OX4_ THE BEST OF RIDE compilation couldn't have a better timing. Released on red vinyl for the occasion of Record Store Day 2015, and sounding great. I already have the original edition of this release from 2001, but as a pretty big fan of this band -which i'll be seeing two times this year; yay!- i just needed to have this reissue as well.

Ride - Nowhere [12", LP]

NOWHERE is of course the ultimate RIDE album. Whatever they did after this might have been good (Going Blank Again is also one of my favourite albums), but it never got better than this classic debut full length.
I've been looking for this album on vinyl for a long time, but finally -in December 2010- Rhino in the US decided to re-release it for the first time since its original release on Creation Records in 1990. And they did a great job. Excellent 180 gram quality vinyl, a coloured cardboard inner sleeve, and an embossed band logo front cover:



Great stuff!
