The Reissue Thread

I think the mancave audiophile set just got a boner, and i'm um like that's nice  (pretty sure anything along these lines for  Steely Dan would cause heart failure)


The Who to Release 11-Disc ‘Who’s Next/Life House’ Boxed Set

Who’s Next/Life House Super Deluxe Edition,” a 10-CD/1-Blu-Ray set that will include 155 tracks, 89 of them previously unreleased, plus spatial audio and surround mixes.

The expansive set will hark back to the legendary origins of “Who’s Next,” the band’s follow-up to “Tommy,” as what was originally designed by Pete Townshend as a concept album in its own right, “Life House,” before it shifted gears to become a more traditional, non-narrative rock album.



$299.98

Can't wait to torrent this!
The Orb’s 10th studio album Metallic Spheres, which features Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour, will be rereleased as Metallic Spheres In Colour. The ambient album has been remastered and remixed and will be available to purchase on September 29
kind of a reissue

Rare and previously unreleased recordings from Heatmiser — Elliott Smith‘s ’90s band with Neil Gust, Tony Lash, and Brandt Peterson — have been collected for a new compilation, The Music of Heatmiser, that will be out October 6 via Third Man. It features the six songs from their 1992 self-released The Music of Heatmiser cassette, their 1993 Stray 7″, plus demos, live cuts, radio sessions, alternate versions and never-before-released tracks.

LP prices are becoming insane


The yellow vinyl limited edition is "only" $40 at Third Man Records.  Weird that the regular black should be so much more.

Love ❤️ her!!

I am probably going to need this to drop further to justify getting it as I have a ton of her music already.

Decent chance of being repackaged less deluxe-y in a few years.
not technically a reissue since this was never issued in the first place, but not sure where else to put this… tantalizing news:

Marvin Gaye: Never-before heard music surfaces in Belgium

At the end when I had listened to all the 30 tapes I had 66 demos of new songs. A few of them are complete and a few of them are as good as Sexual Healing, because it was made in the same time."

One new track above the others makes Alex think we might hear another global hit from Marvin Gaye in the future


(…)

So Alex Trappeniers and his partners could end up as the owners of the physical tapes on which the music was recorded, without the right to publish the songs. And the heirs of Marvin Gaye in the United States could find themselves with a theoretical right to exploit the music, but with no way of accessing the music - because they don't own the tapes. In Alex's view the case for some kind of compromise is obvious.
Very skeptical….there ain’t anything as great as Sexual Healing on the album itself….Marvin was in Europe flailing in a drunken coke binging orgiastic haze…by all accounts hardly coherent

Of course if I owned a tape of unreleased Marvin I also would hype it and try and get paid….
