To put this into perspective, in it's first week, Jesus Freak sold 85,800 copies and after a year went platinum (one million units). Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill (released in June of the same year) was already 11x Platinum after the same amount of time. <br /><br />Jagged Little Pill might be an extreme example, but you can understand the gap between markets. At the very best, Vinyl re-releases of Christian albums will be limited pressing/labours of love with bigger price tags for a limited number of fans until the cost of pressing vinyl drops dramatically...which is entirely possible if it continues on the success it's had in the last few years.<br /><br />Just my two cents.AddCasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01665742473188975865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3508293003737956258.post-78464357891714654712015-03-25T12:03:38.324-05:002015-03-25T12:03:38.324-05:00Steve Taylor's video for "Bannerman"...Steve Taylor's video for "Bannerman" has been on Warner Bros.
