Best Reissue Label Of All Time?

Quick, what's the world's foremost reissue label? If you said Rhino, you probably live in the U.S. If you said Ace you live overseas. A new book on how Ace became one of the best reissue label's is out now on Black Dog Publishing. Ace Records by David Stubbs is part bio, part picture book and such a great concept and read that I wonder why no one has thought of doing the same for Rhino Records. In fact Ace Records beat Rhino by several years, even if they rarely covered the same turf. For those of us living in the States, an Ace label reissue had to be found with import prices. The first ones I remember buying were by B.B. King, Jackie Wilson and King artists like Little Willie John. Like Rhino, Ace is still going strong. Some might say it's overtaken Rhino, which has slipped in recent years. But either way, a quick look through Ace Records and you'll be glad both of them are still around, putting your memories down on disc.
