German Tchibo concern released a new edition of the original 2009 `Absolute Greatest` release. The vinyl edition comes on two white vinyls in a special gatefold cover, the CD (single version) in a special digi pack case. Release date is set on december 1st this year.

cool!

Are Tchibo's vinyls usually quality products or are they crap?

I don´t think it´s made by Tchibo itself... usually they order products from official companys and sell it under the name Tchibo. So it´s pretty realistic, that the Vinyl and the CD comes from Queens official record company. Sadly I don´t have a look on the CD till today.

It doesn't look like this company ships to the USA. I was wondering if anyone who could get their hands on the white vinyl edition when it's released would be willing to ship it to me in the States. Obviously, I'd be happy to pay for the vinyl and all shipping through PayPal or some other way that we could work out. Thanks in advance.

I'll do so for you... contact me via PM.

What a rip off that album was. I actually regret owning the bloody thing! Sits on my shelf like some fucking vulture.

I think it would be an idea to list all Queen's compilations here:

1. GH, 1981
2. GH II, 1991
3. GH I & II, 1994
4. Rocks, 1997
5. GH III, 1999
6. The Platinum Collection, 2002
7. Absolute Greatest, 2009
8. Deep Cuts trilogy, 2011
9. Forever, 2014

Begs for no. 10, don't you reckon??

Well, "Forever" was made purely because Universal wanted their own compilation album, so I reckon they'll do another at some point.
Of course, you could argue that #10 is, infact, Deep Cuts 3....

You forgot Hollywood Records' GH and Classic Queen, plus "Stone Cold Classics" and that "Icon" compilation, for what it's worth...

There was also the "A to Z of Queen" or something.

The Vinyl is no available to order online...

... anyone interested? Got one for sale overseas.

Any news on how limited the white vinyl pressing is?

Here's a link to a site where you can buy it.

Have any of you received the album?

Is it a good quality pressing and good to listen to?

A Christmas gift idea for someone!

Cheers,

Your worst enemy?

Has anyone from outside of Germany already tried to purchase it?
I tried to buy the vinyl from the Tchibo website, but for some reason they won't let me order it, because I'm not from Germany ?
The Cd-version is no problem to order from outside Germany, it seems, but it's not really the CD-version I'm interested in, it's the vinyl of course.
