Over the years, Roulette licensed or "traded out" thousands of songs, so the Roulette catalog has been widely available, at least for the more popular material. It has also seen its former artists like Buddy Knox (Liberty) and Jimmy Rodgers (Dot) re-record their material for other labels. When reissuing songs, Roulette has been quite unreliable for stereo content, with songs appearing in true stereo on one album, then rechanneled on later albums. This was most likely because stereo – or first generation tape sources – were not important to the company.

Beginning in the 1980s, Bob Hyde, then of Outlet Books (who owned Publisher's Central Bureau; later part of Random House), took over their small record division, and started a reissue label called Murray Hill Records. Hyde went to Morris Levy to ask for licensing of Roulette-owned product, since he had, as a collector, always wanted to see a complete Orioles collection done. At that time, Outlet was putting out multi-disc pop music LP sets, much like Reader's Digest. It wasn't at all clear to Hyde why Levy should license his songs to some upstart label and then give some young man access to the entire vaults, but to Bob's surprise, that's what happened. "I guess he liked me and trusted me for some reason," Hyde told me some years ago, "but it didn't translate into any monetary break for Murray Hill. The deals we struck for licensing were advantageous to Levy for sure."

What this did, however, was allow someone with music and tape savvy to go roaming freely through the Roulette archives finding long-lost tapes. At that time, most of the original master tapes had been stored in the vault since the songs were recorded, and reissues had been made only with copies. Hyde enlisted the help of Boston-based deejay/producer "Little Walter" DeVenne to go through the vaults. Murray Hill reissued several albums of Roulette/Goldner material on vinyl in the 1980s.

Meanwhile, starting in 1985, Roulette entered the compact disc market with a series of reissues of their earlier compilations and some single-artist albums. For the oldies reissues, Roulette used many of the high-generation masters that were sent around for years in the vinyl reissue business. These CDs ranged from passable to dreadful in sound. Roulette was not the first – nor the last – record label to discover that compact disc issue was an entirely new business, and that the practices that worked for vinyl reissues just wouldn't withstand the new medium's crystal clear sound capabilities, capabilities that demanded first-generation, or at least low-generation, tapes. With few exceptions, Roulette's CD output consisted of counterparts to the SR-59000 series.

While the single-artist CDs may have been passable, the various artist "oldies" CDs were nowhere near what one would expect from a CD in terms of sound. Some songs even had vinyl surface noise, a dead giveaway that the master tapes were not used. The Original Rock & Roll Hits CDs (RCD-58001 to RCD- 58007) were culled from the same series in the SR-59000 vinyl series, but the CDs had more tracks, so they were not exact reissues. RCD-58007 was actually Original Rock & Roll Hits of the 60's, Vol. 3, but because they used the cover of SR-59015, it became Vol 15 instead. Likewise, the American Rock N Roll Classics CD series are not straight reissues of their counterparts in the 59000 series, but have more tracks and different songs.

The Roulette CD era was 1985-1988, when Roulette was finally sold to Rhino in the US and EMI outside the US.

When Roulette went to Rhino, so did Bob Hyde. He and independent producer Walter DeVenne helped put together a series of high quality reissues of Roulette/Goldner material for Rhino CD release, culminating in the highly acclaimed Doo Wop Box and Doo Wop Box, Volume 2. Hyde eventually left Roulette and was running EMI-Capitol's special markets reissue program until his untimely death in 2001 at the age of 52. The work he and Walter did with the Roulette catalog has finally restored the high quality sound that was evident with the original vinyl issues of long ago.
