World Party’s Goodbye Jumbo vinyl reissue delayed until the end of the year
Jumbo delayed and in holding pattern
World Party kicked off their vinyl reissue programme last month with the debut album Private Revolution, but fans expecting 1990’s Goodbye Jumbo to follow next will be disappointed.
The campaign moves straight on to 1993’s Bang!, which is due out at the end of next week, with Goodbye Jumbo now scheduled for reissue in October this year, five months after the planned vinyl reissue of Dumbing Up, the most recent World Party long-player.
SDE can reveal that the release sequence was scuppered by a manufacturing error with regards to the cover art of Goodbye Jumbo. The horrendous lead times with vinyl production right now have resulted in this album reissued being pushed right to the back end of the year.
In more positive news, Bang! is out on vinyl at the end of next week. Pre-order links for 1997’s Egyptology currently hard to come by…
