Bush - Sixteen Stone | The Vinyl Collection
In 2024, „Sixteen Stone“ celebrated its 30th anniversary. Consequently, there are many vinyl versions available, and distinguishing the reissues with silver artwork can be challenging. I’ve tried to shed light on this in the descriptions. Some versions are scarce, and prices can reach up to 500 Euros. To mark the anniversary, six different versions were released in November 2024.
In the spring of 2025, I finally got my hands on a copy of the incredibly rare, unopened white edition of the first pressing – something I had been searching for years.
It makes me proud to say that, aside from the new Spotify Fog variant and a test pressing, my „Sixteen Stone“ collection is now complete.
