Toillion 215 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 The Record Store Day Black Friday lists came out today and I found this one on the UK site. It is only listed on the UK one and not the US one. There isn't much info outside of that such as how many will be released. https://www.recordstoreday.co.uk/black-friday/World on a String Quote Acclaimed film composer John Williams (Star Wars, Jaw, Indiana Jones) started off his career as a jazz musician. Reissued globally for the first time on vinyl since its original 1958 release, World on a String showcases his early jazz takes on the music of Harold Arlen; 180 gram black vinyl Muad'Dib, rough cut and BB-8 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toillion 215 Posted October 2, 2023 Author Share Posted October 2, 2023 I hope the release is large enough to be able to get in the US at some point. Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy 4,141 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Would be a cool novelty to pick up. I have the Japanese CD and it's a fine swingin' listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,520 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 I've had it as a CD-R and digital file for many years (nice album!), but never in original format. Perhaps some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toillion 215 Posted November 2, 2023 Author Share Posted November 2, 2023 I guess this isn't really a RSD exclusive. It's available for preorder in the US at least on several sites. Here are a few. https://www.target.com/p/john-williams-world-on-a-string-vinyl/-/A-90126333 https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/world-on-a-string-john-williams-composer/40689931 https://www.bestbuy.com/site/world-on-a-string-lp-vinyl/36122608.p?skuId=36122608 Amazon https://a.co/d/64JJCmt BB-8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
