Hi VGONIS2002!     First of all, I sympathize very much for the economic situation in Greece.   My husband and myself have visited your beautiful country numerous times over the last 25 years and love all of the Greek Islands we have visited, although we haven't been to the mainland and Athens yet - that's something we must put right someday!  

You say that none of MK's albums have been released with extra material.  The RPD album was released with an extra disc containing live songs from the 2001 tour, "Sailing to Philadelphia" and "BIA" from Toronto and also "Why Aye Man"  and "Quality Shoe" from a 2002 London show.  

Regarding the Simfy recordings.   I was at four of the concerts last year and I am delighted with the three recordings I have from Simfy (unfortunately Dublin wasn't released), because I can relive the whole, wonderful experience over and over again.   If you had been to one of these concerts, I am sure you would have felt the same way.   I am puzzled as to your view that it is odd that the Simfy recordings were ever released!  I can only speak for myself, but I feel it is one of the best things that ever happened for the fans and I am really grateful to Mark for allowing it to happen.   I just hope that it will continue for the next tour!   :)

There is one downside to the Simfy recordings and that is a lack of audience recordings this side of the pond.  Most recordings nowadays are good quality anyway and with Mikes flute and whistles being put so high in the Simfy mix they may even be better! :)

Was listening to Glasgow yesterday and the flute is mixed down in Speedway so that is much better. :)

Good day to you all! This chatting is a true comfort since i can't seem to find any one here in Greece to talk to about MK! Superval, I know all about the extra material you mention, but they were in the original "limited" release, i was talking about going back to the sessions and digging up some of the material that never made it to the original release. I mean songs that were created but never surfaced or demos/different versions or you know, the kind of stuff other artists put on the extra CD when an anniversary edition comes around. With DS we had only remastered versions of the albums and only BiA got a 5.1 treatment. As i have already told you i respect this frame of mind, after all the man puts it nicely, If they were no good for release back then, they are still no good now. But i dare say that we have enjoyed the first demos, and the working out of the Making movies songs, i was even thrilled to know the working titles of Love over gold songs. Songs in that vein is what i meant. Well even the mono versions of songs would be good enough.
DS1984, you are right, this analysis is my thought as well. HFB being the perfect example. I was in one of 2008 concerts-the only time i saw MK live, since he's been to Greece only twice, the other time being in 1985.    
Come on, it is not funny anymore.

But these recordings (prior to the RAH) actualy are not made by Simfy but given to them by Mark's production team that record every show from the man.

Yes, but I also have the Brighton recording, not made by Simfy, and the flute is very high on Speedway.

Yup, Paul Hanlon is a blast from the past. It's nice not to be involved in that anymore. I don't miss it.
