ORG Music's, Andrew Rossiter and the Label's Releases for Record Store Day 2022

Record Store Day is on its way, but do you ever stop to think about the hard work that goes into such an event? All of the special issues need to be cleared for copyrights and publishing. Designs and packaging have to be created and manufactured. Of course, the music must be mastered and actually pressed onto those vinyl discs that we love so much. There’s a lot that happens before you bring your chosen clutch of albums to your local record store clerk for purchase. On this episode, we’re fortunate to speak with Andrew Rossiter, General Manager and Partner at ORG Music who will give us a glimpse into the herculean task that goes into running a record label around this time of the year.ORG Music, of course has some great Record Store Day releases in the pipeline, and Andrew is here to discuss them all in detail, as well. We’ll talk about a fabulous Brazilian compilation titled, Atenção!: Novos Sons do Brasil; there’s a reissue of The Sheila Divine’s, Where Have My Countrymen Gone; Jeannie C. Riley’s, no nonsense , Harper Valley P.T.A. album will be available on the shelves; Michael De Barre’s 1970’s Zeppelinesque band, Detective finds itself re-released on glorious, super-glam silver vinyl, and - as ORG Music does each Record Store Day, there will be a carefully curated compilation of music from the Sun Records vaults; this particular release being their ninth. So, pull up a chair and eavesdrop on my chat with Mr. Rossiter who kindly allows me to ask him all sorts of questions about the new releases, but also about the behind-the-scenes mechanisms involved in running a record label, producing vinyl, developing meaningful liner notes, and offering a little something for everyone this Record Store Day.
