Dear all,
Imagine this, it could happen.
{It's happened with a lot of other artists}.
All Gord's albums are reissued with the songs remastered.
Superior packaging{lyrics, liner notes, extra photographs, pictures of him on disc etc...}
The question is ...
Would you buy them all again?!
Would I?
I certainly would.

Like I think I mentioned somewhere else, the 1999 'Songbook' IS remastered, so we already have 88 songs updated.

What I'm getting REALLY ANNOYED AT is Warner Bras. not releasing the 'Final Four'!!
We're being held hostage! What do they want--my first born? Fine! My UA CDs? Fine! My whatever? Fine!

We've got people from all over the world here--seems like mostly writers and ATTORNEYS. Couldn't we file suit under the Freedom of Info Act (US law) to "borrow" these masters, with Gord's OK, of course? There must be someone at Eastern Sound who could re-master the tapes! After she finishes her current project, Char could start burning the remastered masters onto CDs and we'll all send Gord our $15US (100CAN?) per and we'll all live in a happier world. Sorry, had to vent!

Relax, Florian, I'm not REALLY plotting a hostile takeover bid of WB, least not today. But this IS a violation of the US Constitution and Code--Cruel and Unusual Punishment! IMHO, anyway.

Eeh, that's all folks!

Wes--SnoCone--a double!! Blackberry.

Hi Frank, I'm okay thanks. The mere idea that any of us might NOT want anything by
the Master seemed kinda comical - to me anyway. No offence intended.
I'll be in touch soon

Hi Frank v,

Sorry, wrong question. It should be:
How many times would you buy them again?

I have always purchased every LP or CD at least twice, one for safekeeping in the original wrapping and one to be used.

I can't find "Old Dan's Records" "Dream Street Rose" "Shadows" "Salute" on CD. They should release those *remastered* first!
