Grateful for what we have been given so far & I guess the Bowie model is being followed.

I wish we could get comprehensive box sets like we've had for Bowie the past 4 years. Whilst they don't contain any unreleased music, it's great to have a collection of remastered albums in a set like that.

Those boxes are all fancy and stuff, but from a hardcore fan's standpoint they leave a lot to be desired: there is a lot of (released) material missing and it appears several single edits on the first two were (poorly) recreated.

Not to say they're bad, they certainly have many qualities, but if you're gonna charge fans a shitload of money for a fancy product, I think the least you can do it try and not fuck up with the edits, and that it's safe to assume your audience won't mind spending a few more bucks for an extra CD or 2 so you can put each and every released track/version on it.

As per the Estate thread that has been stickyfied on here...expect nowt soon! Family members & Commerica seemigly at war....all seems to be in limbo. Have to say reading tyhe redacted report Commercia might well be charging huge fees BUT seem to have a plan & structure in place....the so called Heirs seem obsessed with $. I might be wrong on this BUT that's how it reads.


In short...expect NOTHING from the vault any time soon.

I hope you’re wrong. But everything points to that doesn’t it. What a bollocks!

I am still in hope that we will get to find about upcoming releases during the celebration, if not tomorrow (21st). But everything suggests that we are going to be disappointed once again. And with bootleggers having gone quiet lately, it’s an incredibly frustrating time to be a fan...
