PONO alone would be enough to me.
Then SOS followed by early R&J feat. the full ending on the Pensa instead of Paul.

it's not "instead of", it's Pensa + pedal steel

Totally pointless.  We've already had BIA on SACD anyway.  No new music here so I'm not spending a penny.

I don't have the physical copies of the DS vinyls, so maybe I'll get those MFSL releases.

But something new and bigger like an ultimate Boxset would be the thing!

I have low expectations...

Second hand original vinyl copies of all the original albums are plentiful and easy to find, no point buying these seriously expensive re-releases unless you are a major audiophile with high-end equipment IMO.

What I would like to see is vinyl releases of all the solo albums at normal prices.

There is a lot they could put in a box set, I would also like to hear the version of Private Dancer with Mark singing!! Tina liked it.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

I'm pleasantly surprised to check back in on this and see there is a glimmer of light from Guy on this.

We don't really need expensive half speed vinyl masters for a select audience with higher than high end equipment (I'm running a technics 1210 and struggle to justify a purchase).

But I do think the time is ripe for a Dylan esque box set.  There must be so much unreleased material which I truly believe there is a viable commercial market for.  This could nicely be interspersed with commercially released alternative single edits or mixes. The Bob Marley Songs of Freedom Box Set is a great example of this which sold in quantity and remains in demand.

Keep the plans afoot. I'm still very hopeful something is in preparation.

Would love to have a remastered GH record, Darling Pretty sounded way better on PI compilation. Can’t see why another re-release of DS albums makes sense at this time without new songs? :think

Full Mandela gig plus any recorded warm ups is essential I'd say for any release

Crazy there's no full official release to date!  Best gig!
