I Want Another Release Like The Dawn Boot

I loved the way The Dawn boot re-arranged, compiled and frankly made sense out of the albums, singles and outtakes from the '94-'95 era (one of my favorites). Any opinions on what other eras would benefit from a release like this.

Top of my list is the '85 - '87 period (Crystal Ball, Sign Outtakes, Camille, Dream Factory, etc.)...

I never heard it but I've been told numerous times that it's a great listen. Many people think that it's the unreleased The Dawn project from 1994, though, and it's not: the tracklist is purely fanmade and contains tracks that are from 1995 and 1996.

It's brilliantly done. I don't like fan made things, but this is in another league.

One of the best non live boots ever. Been a favourite of mine for years and probably will continue to be.

The 1985-87 period you mention does sound tempting.

I think something that took in the entire period of The Revolution would be good, but having precious 80's classic tracks mixed around with not be to everyones taste, whereas that type of editing on The Dawn fitted the mid '90's period perfectly imo.

Dream factory
Train

Crystal ball
Power fantastic

These songs are all out in great sound and all from the same period. This would make an amazing album. I might also include it's a wonderful day and Teacher,teacher if the sound could be cleaned up and the whole thing mixed with the same volume levels. Add some great art work and you would have the best boot ever
