Reddit mentions of Rush - ReDISCovered LP box [LP]

I'm not entirely sure that Rush management was behind this project. Remember, Atlantic owns the American master rights. They can sell them whenever they see fit. I think the project was driven from Universal Music Enterprises (UMe). Universal? Hear me out.

The Rush M.O. seems to be boxed set/special edition remaster on the 40th anniversary. We got one for the debut album, for FbN, 2112, and FtK.

So where the hell did this thing drop from? Well, for starters, no new remaster. So Alex wasn't involved (he usually approves the sonic treatment). Instead, it appears to be part of a whole series of colored 200-gram vinyl re-issues of the classic rock cannon (hat tip /u/RogerMooresEyebrows). Check this store selling them: https://thesoundofvinyl.us/

Each of these records is listed as issued by [orginal label]/UMe, except in cases where the original label is a wholly owned subsidiary of UMe like Capital Records. So Pet Sounds is listed as "Capital Records", while Pump is listed as "Geffen/UMe".

While the tweet came from the official Rush account, the content of the tweet certainly came from the communications team at UMe. You can tell because of the near-identical tweets from KISS last month:

That's why there's no significance to the project for Rush fans-- it's not an anniversary, it's not part of a series, there's really nothing here for fans. It's for people who are collecting a series of cannon rock albums from many bands. UMe must have put 2112 on their list, and reached out to Atlantic for the masters to do a joint limited edition issue. Rush just allowed their twitter to send the announcement as a courtesy.

Is it $100 total for all three? Nonetheless here's mine! I'm not entering, but thought I still do this for fun! :D

• Makeup: I think their Fullmetal Collection is so colorful and bright! Alkahestry, Colonel, Equivalent Exchange, Day of Reckoning, and Fullmetal are pretty awesome look shades. That twinkle is pretty.
  
  For a full size shadow from Shiro it's around $5-6.
  
  
• Vinyl: Rush and The Beatles are must haves for a vinyl collection. Miles Davis too; that jazz music is super nice and smoooth. And of course, so MJ in that collection won't hurt either! ;)
  
  I think a vinyl on Amazon is $20-40ish depending on the record.
  
  
  
• Books: Books are a toughie for me! I used to read quite a bit, but after having to read 3-4 textbooks each quarter, reading isn't that fun anymore.
  
  But I want to give you books I want to read and to be read later on:
  
  
• Lolita
  
• The Secret Life of Bees
  
• The Thirteenth Tale
  
• The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
  
• Child 44
  
  I'm pretty sure an eBook on Amazon for kindle is waaay cheaper than getting a printed novel, so you can get quite a handful. Plus, Amazon has free ones too :D
