Real Gone Music will turn the clock back to the '90s with a pair of upcoming vinyl reissues: a 25th anniversary edition of Now In a Minute by Welsh singer-songwriter Donna Lewis and the self-titled debut from Florida rockers Saigon Kick. It's all set for this April.
Donna Lewis may not be a household name, but the music teacher-turned-chart-topping-singer rose to fame 25 years ago with her first single, "I Love You Always Forever." The single peaked at No. 2 on the charts, staying there for nine weeks and dominating the airwaves. As a result, Now In A Minute reached the Top 40 on the Billboard albums chart. On April 16, the album will make its vinyl debut with an orange-hued pressing limited to 1,000 copies. U.S. retailer Barnes and Noble will have an exclusive black marble edition limited to just 500 copies available a few weeks earlier, on April 2. No matter which edition you go for, you'll find a set of dreamy pop all wrapped up in a deluxe inner sleeve.
April 2 will also see the reissue of 1991's Saigon Kick, the Miami hard-rock band's self-titled debut, across retailers. The LP featured their classics "Coming Home" and "Ugly" which boasted their unique blend of alt-rock, grunge, metal, and hard rock influences. Originally released in 1991, the album saw a brief run on vinyl but only in Europe. Now it returns worldwide on white vinyl, limited to only 900 copies, complete with a printed inner sleeve and lyric sheet.
Both of these overlooked '90s classics are available now to preorder from our friends at Real Gone Music. You can secure your copies using the links below!

Donna Lewis' Without Love is a favorite track of mine from this period. I have the CD-Single of that, and Fool's Paradise. But cool that it's being reissued on vinyl!
