More than 44 minutes on vinyl requires sound distortion, which completely defeats the purpose of a quality vinyl release.
Agreed. And it if is released on vinyl (fingers crossed that Dave wasn't just "speculating") then I don't see why they wouldn't do it as a double vinyl LP. They did it for "Crystal Visions".

My advice to vinyl collectors such as myself is SNATCH IT UP once it's released. I have a gut feeling that the vinyl version will be a limited pressing. You can't even go on Amazon or eBay these days without "Crystal Visions" commanding $250 brand new or $130 used.
That's cray!
