Although originally planned for release in October 2007, the box set was finally released on April 22, 2008. The delay was due to an issue with the vinyl, as well as other problems in the production of the box set. Further delays included faulty test pressings, inferiority of the L.A. Woman artwork, and poor compounds in the initial vinyl run, which caused a search for a new source of virgin vinyl.[2] The box set was released via Rhino Records and limited to 12,500 copies.
