the miracle and innuendo japan vinyl

innuendo and the miracle came out on vinyl in japan???

Yes

I've never seen for sale on the Internet ..

That would be because Japanese vinyl releases for The Miracle and Innuendo simply do not exist at all. A Kind Of Magic was the last studio album issued on vinyl in Japan, and Live Magic the last live album also issued there on vinyl. However, South Korea had vinyl releases for those albums: http://www.discogs.com/Queen-The-Miracle/release/2801949 http://www.discogs.com/Queen-Innuendo/release/3375621

Thank you...but why no vinyl edition?

I think the reason was because Japan was really embracing the CD market (and they still do to this day - CD sales in Japan are some of the best in the world), and vinyl was starting to make a downturn especially in the 90's.

Fortunately though, Japan has been not immune to the recent resurgence of vinyl, so who knows, maybe some day we'll see some "new" Queen releases or re-issues from Japan in that format. Japan has the best quality vinyl pressings in the world, IMO.

thank you :)

correct. 1989 was the first year the CD as a format sold more than the LP in Japan.
