I guess the highlight is having SACD / DVD-Audio quality versions of the albums; the different edits are interesting but I think I possibly have the same view of them as all the re-mixes that have become available recently not sure how often I'd play them after I'd checked them out.. I was hoping that we might have got some rare early DVD footage etc. Andrew www.andrewshearer.com Twitter & Facebook: @shearermusic ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V15 #300 ***************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
