ulyssees Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 is it O.K. for DJ's to play reissues on vinyl? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Popular Post Drewtg Posted June 1, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2015 No. It's illegal. The law was passed at the XIV international congress in Blackpool and became law in 1992. "Insofar as vinyl shall be the only material allowed for music purposes at a 'do' - notwithstanding the attendant dealers are allowed to sell all materials (including CD's and reproduction badges), promoters and DJ's are to ensure that all vinyl is from the original release of the record and NOT any subsequent re-issue. This is to be enforced irrespective of the paying publics desire to hear music what they like." The spirit of the law was to prevent any recurrence of "The Todmorden Incident". I hope that answers your query 7 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
