Gary Moore / Japanese SHM-CD reissues

‘Paper Sleeve’ Japan CD reissues

Universal Music will reissue nine Gary Moore albums on the Japanese SHM-CD format in April.

The seven studio albums – starting with 1982’s Corridors of Power and ending with 1992’s After Hours – were all issued on Virgin at the time and there are also two live albums: Rockin’ Every Night: Live in Japan (1983) and We Want Moore! (1984).

These limited edition CD reissues are Japanese CDs and come in the ‘vinyl replica’ / mini-LP CD / Paper Sleeve format which replicate original finishes and artwork and all come with OBI-strips.

The ‘paper sleeve’ CDs include OBI-strips and replicate original vinyl packaging (click image to enlarge)

These appear to be using the 2002 remasters and all CDs come with bonus tracks (see full tracklisting, below). . The good news is that Universal must have imported these since they are available on Amazon in the UK and other channels for a relatively cheap price (around the £20 mark).

These will be released on 5 May 2023, via UMR/EMI.
