Camille? Crystall Ball?? Dream Factory??

what would you like to see released??

Every note of it.

My dream scenario:

1) Remaster all of the WB albums (other than maybe 'Chaos & Disorder' & 'The Vault') and release them as deluxe editions - B-sides, choice cuts from the vault, etc.

2) Rerelease everything that's out of print (which would cover pretty much everything from 1996-2010) as is.

3) Compile all "complete" vault songs not released on those reissues onto their own albums - basically, anything that sounds like a finished song gets a physical release.

4) Release a few "important" live shows as official releases.

5) Compile everything else into downloadable "packages" and stick a sort-of-reasonable price tag on them - all available live shows, remixes, demos...stuff that won't appeal to the general public, but for which there would still a significant market among fans.

Same thing with any sort of video - I imagine most of it would only be of interest to the big fans, but no reason not to put it all out there. We'd buy it.

I say, just release SOMETHING!!! What is taking his estate so long to begin monetizing his catalog, with both re-releases and previously unreleased music, videos, and films? So much of his music is out of circulation now. There is presently a huge vacuum, which is allowing bootleggers to fill the void. Those estate taxes will soon be due. At the very least, they could be taking pre-orders right now. I don't get it...

Discuss in the sticky please.
