Faust Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 A salesman proposes to me the 1st Rio at 50 €... Do you know if this album has well a day published out of CD, and especially do you know it soon will be republished ? Thank you in advance.

Nick C Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 I think it may have been released as a CD in Japan looking at the picture provided with the entry on the HH CD listings area, although I have never come across it on CD. It's a great album and it deserves a reissue but I have not heard any details of a forthcoming re-release on it. BUT don't take just my word for it, some of the more clued up people on this site may be able to help a little more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes great UK album (despite the singer ...). It seems me to have read somewhere that the 2 Rio will be republished... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it does get released...if you find out would you post it here? Or if anyone else knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faust Posted January 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 It seems that the first one was never officially published out of CD (the second one yes)... Perhaps in the form of bootleg but I am not sure. Difficult to have information on this band. Of course if I have more information I will post it here.

Kim_Hp Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 As far as I know, none of the two RIO albums are officially out on CD! Well, actually, the first one have been re-issued by Retrospect Records, so you might wanna get that one. I don't know if it's available anymore though (you can't order it through their website). But I agree, "Borderland" is a great AOR album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jez Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 I have never seen the Rio stuff on CD before either. About time someone somewhere re-released these albums as they are both cracking albums, especially 'Borderland'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 If these are available on CD anywhere, I would LOVE to pick them both up too. Just heard 'Borderland' today and I was completely blown away by the first 3 songs. Got to hear the rest now, but what I've heard is close to as good as I've ever heard AOR done.

melodicrockoz Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 The Retrospect pressings of Rio's albums is an official release........ however there's a possibilty another label may issue the two later this year, mind you all these whispers of Rio's albums being reissued by an European based label have been around for a few years now..

Geoff Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 With the US dollar as it is I probably wouldn't buy, but just went to Retrospect now to check the prices... I am that impressed with this band and would LOVE to hear 'Sex Crimes'... but it isn't in stock. Have they both sold out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 So, anyway. About 'Sex Crimes'. Uh, anyone wanna upload it for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Planet Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Love to pick this one up as well......it would be nice if RR restocked this release.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETERPOLAND Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I keep praying that someday it will be released eventually on a silverpressed CD (not a CD-R with artwork). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I always thought that the Guys at Escape would pick up the 2 Rio discs and do one of their nice double Digi Packs like they did with the excellent Orphan, Sugarcreek and FM stuff, but not so far.

Geoff Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 *clears throat* 'Sex Crimes'. Anyone? Only got 'em on Vinyl mate Sorry. Yeah, I was fearing that may be the case based on some of y'all's comments. Thanks anyway. I can only echo what you gents are saying... that these NEED to be re-released. Or Retrospect NEED to re-stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
