Vigotone

Have you noticed that the best collectors'/bootleg CDs on the market have the name "Vigotone" on them? Just about every release on Vigotone (or one of its subsidiary labels) features rare recordings, excellent sound quality, as well as packaging that puts "legitimate" releases to shame!

Since most bootleg sites (like the "Beatleg Project" site) collect only the CDs relevant to a particular artist, this site strives to compile and list every release on Vigotone and its subsidiary labels. It's as complete as I've been able to determine, but if you know of any releases not included here, or if you spot any errors in the content, please let me know.

Also, you should know that Vigotone went out of business in 2001. The titles listed around this site are not for sale. While I may offer a few extra titles for sale from time to time (listed below), this site is primarily for information about Vigotone only!

Updates:

June 6, 2009 - I'd like to thank Adrian S. for sending in a scan of the "What You Been A-Missin'" standard CDR. (Up until this update, the site only had pictures of the CD and "silver" CDR versions.)

May 27, 2009 - Well, for those of you who were waiting to get a copy of the Thirty Days Encore Edition, you'd better act now. There is only one copy left of the Japanese CD version (as well as a one-off of the US CDR version. The details for both are below.

April 25, 2009 - A few more Vigs turned up recently (as well as a few original Yellow Dog CDs). They're being offered below.

March 27, 2009 - Well, it's time for my (seemingly) quarterly offering of guaranteed-authentic original Vigotone titles! It's been more than three years since I've been able to offer a few of these, so now's your chance! (See them below.)

For Sale:

As long-time visitors to this site know, I'm not related to the guys who made Vigotone CDs, nor are the titles generally available for sale. However, I do occasionally come across Vigotone CDs, and if they're authentic, offer them here. Below are some authentic Vigotones I've found in the recent (& not-so-recent) past, as well as some other collectors' CDs.

I've tried to keep the prices what they've been in the past ago, but Vigs are getting increasingly difficult to find...

Also, you might be able to find people at eBay selling "Vigotone" CDs for less money, but you'd probably be getting a fake. I guarantee that the Vigotone CDs I sell are authentic.

Thirty Days - Encore Edition

US CDR version

Around the time the (now sold out) Thirty Days Encore Editions were put together, I got a set of the US CDR discs.

Since the discs were sent loose, an unnumbered version of the Encore Edition was made for them. (Notice the front cover is clearly marked as "CDR version".)

This comes with the US Mitsui CDRs, booklet, and magnet. There is no numbered card as one was never made for it.

The 17 discs are generally in near mint shape, but a couple have light marks on them due to fact that they were sent to me loose. (The marks do not affect play at all.)

If you wanted to get all 17 discs of great Get Back sessions music, this is your last chance!
