Vinnie Vincent’s Latest Album Available for $2,000,000
Vinnie Vincent, the former guitarist of Kiss, is offering a unique opportunity for fans to purchase his long-awaited new album, Guitarmaggedon, for a whopping $2,000,000. This bold move comes after Vincent’s previous attempt to sell single songs at $200 each failed to attract enough buyers.
In a bold move last year, Vincent announced a plan to pre-sell his album song by song, with each song priced at $200. The catch was that he would only complete the sale and ship the single once 1,000 sales were reached. This plan had the potential to earn Vincent $200,000 per song, plus $25,000 in shipping fees. Unfortunately, the sales fell short, prompting Vincent to consider shelving the album indefinitely.
In a statement made in January, Vincent expressed his stance, stating that unless he received fair compensation for his work, the album would remain unreleased. Despite the disappointment of not reaching his sales goal, Vincent remained steadfast, declaring that the album, deemed by him as the greatest of all time, would never see the light of day if the fans did not support it.
Recently, on March 15, Vincent introduced a new offer to potential buyers. The entire album, consisting of 10 songs, is now available for $2,000,000. The purchaser is granted the unique opportunity to take on the role of a record label by manufacturing and selling the album. This arrangement draws parallels to Wu-Tang Clan’s Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, wherein only one copy of the album was made and sold for $2,000,000 in 2015.
The buyer of Vincent’s album will receive ten songs in master format, along with the master files of the artwork, related posters, and individual vinyl and CD packaging for each song. The buyer has the freedom to release the album in any format they choose, whether in parts or as a whole. Additionally, the purchase includes a perpetual license to use the brand names ‘Vinnie Vincent Invasion’ and ‘Vinnie Vincent’ for the album’s lifetime.
However, it is important to note that the purchase does not grant the buyer exclusive distribution rights or any ownership of the copyrights and trademarks associated with Vinnie Vincent or the album. Any marketing plans and ideas must also be approved by Vincent. Therefore, potential buyers are advised to seek legal counsel to address any questions or concerns before committing to purchase the album.
In conclusion, Vinnie Vincent’s bold move to offer his new album for $2,000,000 presents a unique opportunity for fans to own a special piece of music history. With the buyer granted the rights to act as a record label and release the album as they see fit, this offer is a one-of-a-kind experience for true music enthusiasts.
