Reissue Wish List for 2015

[Aevion93]

ABC. Surprising they haven’t jumped in on the Super Deluxe versions. Except of Lexicon. But what about How to be a Zillionaire and I’d love to see the b-sides for Beauty Stab.

Don't forget the deluxe Skyscraping as well! That one was pretty straightforward though, as it was all CD single material.

I badly want to see the other albums expanded as well.

there wasn't anything else to release for skyscraping. that was it.
didn't need more.

I think possible Up and Abracadabra reissues would be the same, although the 2005 reissues nearly covered everything. Haven't heard the quality of these two remasters as my CDs are the originals.

[blaaah]

Nah, tons of remixes missing of both those and bet both had unreleased mixes too as Up only had two singles.

[Surly]

I've said this on other forums and I'll say it here: The Payola$. I can't believe these albums have never been on CD.

Also:

Kane Gang - Miracle with the 7" edit of "Motortown" and any other single/extended mixes
KTP - Certain Things Are Likely with the 7" edit of the title track and, again, any other single/extended mixes

yes, there are tons of KTP mixes out there.

would be great to have them on cd.

It's a real shame it only had two singles. I think Never More Than Now and North could've been much better singles than The Real Thing. Up and Abracadabra are both fantastic albums and deserve better treatment. Plus a DVD with Abracadabra including the music videos would be great, seeing as none of them are on any release so far.

Substance would be a pretty good one, as that whole set is like a New Order album in itself. The Cure's Mixed Up and Wish are long overdue for reissues, although I wonder what they'd include on Mixed Up (I understand The Cure's bonus material on the reissues is generally limited to demos and live material?). Camouflage, as I probably said before, is a big want of mine and I'd be thrilled to have even just Voices and Images in expanded form. Something on the lines of the fantastic Spice Crackers reissue from 2009.

I agree with you on Camouflage, V&I would be awesome to get as an expanded version. Heck, there's probably a half dozen or so mixes of "The Great Commandment" alone.

An expanded Mixed Up could contain even more mixes, or extendeds, or something, maybe also some cool videos of those mixes.

Substance would be excellent as a reissue w/bonus material(maybe some extendeds, or different mixes of True Faith, BLT, and a few others).

Totally agree. Its a great pop album and a great house album. Paper Thin also wouldve been great. The Real Thing is my favourite track but just got lost in the myriad of house tracks in late 89 and the overall public demise of all our favourite 80s bands.

I wonder what they'd include on Mixed Up (I understand The Cure's bonus material on the reissues is generally limited to demos and live material?).

there's some older 12" mixes that haven't been included + a few mixes (Let's Go To Bed, Just Like Heaven + Primary) from both 12"/Single-CDs they released for the album. Rumour has it, they were trying out a few more songs that never got used (besides Harold+Joe) around that time [not 100% confirmed].
Plus, who knows, maybe they commisioned other remixes around that time that weren't used.

Although unlikely, but I definetely wouldn't mind a complete dvd of the gig in Leipzig 1990, that was pro-shot by MTV + DFF and has never surfaced only the songs from both tv broadcasts.

Safari Records released After Dark digitally this past year.

I second this one! Even just the basic album on CD would get my money. Even though I have absolutely no hope it will ever happen.

[blaaah]

Love and Money - All You Need is Love and Money avec all the mixes
Great band.

[Aevion93]

I wouldn't mind also seeing reissues of Grace Jones' other two Compass Point albums and Slave to the Rhythm. I know the latter is under a different record label so that could be a different story, and seeing as its under ZTT it'll probably never happen due to their apparent obsession with Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Guess I'm just not a real FGTH fan.

The Nightclubbing reissue, despite missing out a few tracks, was pretty good and an example of what they could do with Warm Leatherette and Living My Life.
