"Nightlife/Release" remasters?

#1 Post by Twilightseer »

A few months ago, I purchased the first six PSB albums in their brillant remastered editions.
Now, Nightlife and Release are the only albums I don't have; the problem is I don't want to buy them just to see a remaster with the B-sides released a few weeks later so has there been any indication of when these albums are to be rereleased, if ever?

Thanks :)

They are destined to be released in the future, but no fixed date as yet.

With the new album released the next spring, the earliest probable moment would be in late 2006. More likely in 2007 though, so my advice is to go and buy the original editions. You'll find them pretty cheap quite easily.

And I don't see any idea to release those "remastered" CD's so soon (less than 5 years) after the original album release.

Interestingly, Release was mastered after the Re-issue series was re-mastered. Ergo; Release's mastering is as just as good/even better than the re-issues already. :)

I have seen them done as being released in Autumn 2006. So either September, October or November if the release schedule is to be believed. Is mor likely Early 07 though.

There isn't a set release-date for them, they were going to put out Nighlife/Further Listening in September 2004 but Parlophone felt they were releasing too much. The plan is to reissue the 2 albums at the same time but I wouldn't expect them for a couple of years or so.

Same here. They'd probably throw in some fun stuff from the musical, maybe a few unreleased demos that were recorded for CTH. How lovely that would be....

It would be cool if they issued a Relentless remaster along with the Nightlife and Release ones...
