Does anyone have news (i.e. the latest rumour) on the first album re-release? I thought it was supposed to be imminent. The BF singles box set is hardly a taster.

Although it got a formal announcement in early 2012 for the 40th anniversary and all the remixing work (in glorious 5.1) was completed by Steven Wilson under Manzanera's direction that year, it has so far taken four years for Roxy and the record company to assemble the artwork and content. Prevarication or procrastination; take yer pick. And don't take my word for it; it's here on Wilson's website:B http://goo.gl/CftcCiB It's worth reading it all as he explains the whole master/remaster/remix shebang. It's a shame that so much of its intended target market will have died by the time this thing arrives. You're still young, Simon; you may have a chance. Keep yourself fit, and sometime in 2038 Amazon's drone might arrive on the delivery pad on your roof (or you can nip down to Argos on your hoverboard) and you can rush to your gramophone with the newly pressed disc. I bet this new-fangled vinyl thing will be massive by then. Chris From: Simon Galloway I'll save my money for the special edition of the first Roxy LP as teased by the Ladytron 10" for RSD last year. And also watch paint dry. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 09 Mar 2016 16:19:17 +0000 From: Richard Evans Subject: Re: [AVALON] Bryan Ferry - The Island Singles 1973 - 1976 Summed up perfectly Richard Evans > On 9 Mar 2016, at 16:13, Simon Galloway wrote: > > Yet another uninspired and less than essential addition to the RSD release > schedule this year.

Just looking at the financial aspect we are in the stage where the potential market is naturally reducing. I wouldn't be surprised to see a "best of" in some form soon just to completely dumbfound everyone.
