Simply Vinyl

Simply Vinyl was formed in 1997. The aim of the company was to reissue a broad range of classic albums on 180 gram virgin vinyl with 350 gram thick and durable card sleeves. All Simply Vinyl releases would endeavour to reproduce the original analogue sound whenever possible and the original album artwork as closely as possible to the original release. The company places the finished LP into a heavy-duty PVC wallet which is sealed with a customised Simply Vinyl reflective seal. In September 1997, Simply Vinyl released its first 25 albums which were selected from the Warner Music, Sony Music and Rykodisc catalogues. In March 1998, the company diversified into re-releasing some classic contemporary film soundtracks. In 2001 the company’s head office moved from Central London to South Wimbledon. Simply Vinyl has been relaunched and revitalised under new ownership in 2010. Please note that counterfeit / unofficial releases that pretend to be issued under this label should use Simply Vinyl (2) instead. Because Simply Vinyl issued 1 to 1 copies of the original, you will often find the Simply Vinyl catalog only in the Runout.
