The live CD is excellent. For those of us who did go to the gigs it brings back great memories. I think the sound on it is fantastic - they've done a great job in the studio. I'm totally up for more live CDs. I wish he'd get the Roxy 2011 Manchester live DVD out too. I asked Bryan about that but he said not this year. I'm guessing next year for that as he also said it was all finished and ready. I'll buy the deluxe releases too and anything else he chucks out, but I'm not one for remixes, don't buy them as a rule, so possibly not up for the Avonmore remixes which are coming out soon. Tried to listen to a preview online - not my cup of tea at all. > From: shearerandrew@hotmail.com > To: avalon@smoe.org > Subject: RE: [AVALON] Meanwhile............. > Date: Fri, 5 Aug 2016 12:46:23 +0000 > > The other thing I wonder is if the hoped for albums will just be on sale via > BF's website.

Well I guess you could be right Tracy, particularly as he's busy touring at the moment, but commercially, I would've thought (as I suspect the products will be expensive) the time of release would be around Christmas? From memory I thought Steve Wilson had completed the 5.1 mixes of the first album etc and there was some mixing of the BF Albert Hall gig circa Another Time, Another Place?
