does anyone know much about this , interested in the demos

I had a look on the Secret Records website but there is no mention of this release at all. I just hope it's not a rehash of the couple of live DVD's they have released in the past and it's an up to date concert. A couple of the demos appear on Fine And Also Rare China a CD given away at one of their concerts. It is really doing my nut in why nobody has bothered to reissue their back catalogue when you see some of the shite that is being reissued.

All I find is "Live Greatest Hits CD and DVD released to coincide with their Winter tour and Christmas shows."

So true...Breathe getting deluxe remastered treatment says it all...pure garbage...I've queried Edsel and I believe if anyone is going to reissue these, it will be them...they are looking into it, so fingers crossed!

one man's poison is another man's cure...............you cannot please everyone on what artist[s] gets selected for these deluxe re issue's

Would be nice to see CHINA CRISIS get the deluxe treatment,but only if it is fully comprehensive,with unreleased stuff/12" mixes,etc.

Still no info on where and when the live tracks were recoded, nor the demos....?

I got this the other day not watched or listened to it yet but it looks like a reissue of this http://reocities.com/SunsetStrip/Towers ... dusted.htm with an audio CD included. It's a very misleading title for starters it's a live album and half the songs on it weren't even singles. Somebody needs to get their finger out of their arse and get their back catalogue reissued.

Thanks. That "Done Dusted" DVD seems very rare, not listed for sale anywhere.
