Vinyl Nirvana

03/23/2009
. (Reuters) The bulk of Nirvana's catalog is set for a high-fidelity do-over this year. Original Recordings Group (ORG) prepares to release "Nevermind," "In Utero," and "MTV Unplugged" on 180-gram, audiophile-quality vinyl for the first time.

All three records will be released in 2009, with "Nevermind" out first, said Monti Olson, a senior vice president of Universal Music Publishing Group/Interscope Records and founder of ORG, which produces and markets high-quality vinyl records. He will announce the deal at the South by Southwest music conference Saturday (March 21).

Noting that the recordings have been remastered specifically for ORG, Olson added, "To our knowledge this is the first time 'Unplugged" has ever come out on vinyl. - more on this story
