Seems like the Rock Reissue business is doing just fine right about now. Lot's of classic rock is getting the vinyl treatment.
For example, lately Black Sabbath's back catalog has become readily available on heavy duty pressing for today's rock crate diggers.

Today I found this!

Guns and Roses - Use Your Illusion part 1 and Part 2LP Reissues (Geffen) 1991





DAMN!!!

MINE!

Dusty Groove
$49.99 ... 7-inch 15 x 7"
(€39.54 || £31.01 || ¥3815) (approx.)
7-inch (Item 613961) Fantasy (UK), Late 60s/Early 70s — Condition: New Copy

A trunk full of uber-classic Creedence singles – 15 X 7" singles packaged in a heavy-duty box – each in nicely-done reproductions of the original picture sleeves! Creedence Clearwater Revival was one of greatest singles bands of their era, and it's a heck of a treasure to have all of their greatest Fantasy hits and B-Sides – in mono and on vinyl, as nature intended! It's got the monumental hits and relatively overlooked gems alike – and it comes with a deluxe 40-page, full color booklet! Includes "Porterville", "Call It Pretending", "Suzie Q" (Pts 1 & 2), "Proud Mary", "Bad Moon Rising", "Lodi", "Born On The Boyou", "Green River", "Who'll Stop The Rain", "Run Through The Jungle", "Sweet Hitch-Hiker", "Someday Never Comes", "Tearin' Up The Country" and more. Soulful, swampy rock grandeur from a group that was nearly infallable for most of it's run! All tracks singles in mono, save for the trippy, tongue-in-cheek "Promotional Single" with "45 Revolutions Per Minute" (Pts I & II). © 1996-2012, Dusty Groove America, Inc.

^^HELL yeah, those hits are the kind of classic rock hits that goes over well at any party with anyone. Don't have their albums, or their greatest hits, just a smattering of random tracks here and there so this would be a good starter for me.

So I did a little digging on that Siamese Dream LP reissue and I'm pretty sure it does NOT have all the extras in that CD set you have P. I could be wrong, but if there are bonus tracks they aint advertising it anywhere and I already have Siamese Dream on wax, so I'm gonna have to get the CD to get those extras.


Speaking of which, this just dropped on Tuesday, picked it up locally yesterday...


Smashing Pumpkins - Pisces Iscariot 2LP (EMI) 2012





^Unlike the original wax pressing of this, it does not include the uber rare bonus 45, which apparently is one of SP's best tracks ever. The OG of this used to go for 150 bucks on Ebay since it was so limited. I got this very nice reproduction for 25 bones which is still expensive, but essential, so I had to cop it.

According to the owner of the store. Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness 4LP is next to be released this year. Gish was reissued with bonus tracks earlier this year as well. Besides all that, Smashing Pumpkins dropped a brand new one earlier this year that I still know nothing about. I'm curious about that for sure.
