Simple Minds? Now all he needs is a distribution/record company, or is he just going to continue to release limited editions of his records?

This is probably the one to read: Moon: The Life and Death of a Rock Legend (it is over 600 pages).

I have seen Mr. Butler interviewed in various Moon/Who documentaries.

I have a first edition of that book. There was probably only one paperback edition, so I bet it is the same one I have. The copy I have was given to me by a teacher in high school, who is now a friend of mine on Facebook. He use to call me "Moon". It's pretty much junk, but there is some funny stuff in there.

I don't think I had a cd player then. Those were the cassette days.

If you want to see him in action, check out his work with The Trailer Park Boys. He most certainly has a screw loose. I found it interesting there was no mention of his troubles in Florida.

I have the following: For some odd reason, I lost interest in his albums. I don't think I have listened to them in years.

I never knew it was released on cd. I think I got the cassette I have sometime in the early 1990s.

I agree, it is somewhat about selling product, but there is a sound difference. If there wasn't, I would not bought all the Beach Boys cds so many times.

That is true - but it would be odd to do them all and leave that one out.

Jeff Tweedy Talks About Wilco's Future by Cortney Harding July 16, 2010 3:47 EDT

It's a great album.

The following were re-done, and re-released last year: New Morning, Before the Flood, The Basement Tapes, and Dylan and the Dead. Dylan 2009 Remasters - Basement Tapes/Before the Flood/New Morning/Dylan & the Dead I am not really one to buy such things again unless the release includes bonus tracks, a cd booklet with some sort of nice essay, maybe some unseen photos, etc.

I did not bother with all of that. All of my Dylan cds are the old "Nice Price" versions. I think they have been re-done again since the SACD releases, come to think of it. And of course, I have Dylan on cassette.

I had it on cassette back in the day.

Bob Dylan - Limited Edition Catalog Box Set [Hybrid SACD - DSD, Original recording remastered, Box set] I don't think anyone is in any hurry to work on Dylan.

I thought all of the Bob Dylan albums were re-mastered a few years ago.

Maybe it will now be 6 records, instead of 3 records.

I think it is going to be a box set.

I thought they used rocks or sheep eyeballs for currency in Ireland. I carry so much stuff, that I have hired someone to carry my stuff for me.

I think all of The Clash cds have been re-done. Not sure. I think it really comes down to who does the work, amount of money spent, research/time spent on the project, etc. I agree, some of the stuff we have is jut jacked up in volume, and little else has been done.

I never bother with those sort of releases. The first two really need re-mastered. Re-master Re-mastering is not re-mixing. We have to remember that sometimes the weird drum sound, or what have you, is what the band or producer wanted.
