<< Big problem, as always, is who actually owns what. I tried to do one
when i worked at Attic Records and back then (80s) everyone thought
their masters were invaluable and wanted all sorts of concessions and
money. I think it is a lot easier now, plus the technology to clean
up vinyl and tapes is way ahead of... uh.... getting the vinyl lp damp
in taping from it (to reduce noise), which we had to do on a Jack
Scott reissue way back in the day.
another problem is the singles by said bands are always better than
the eventual lps.... >>
Speaking of which, Ralph
(and Heads Up, Mark@rockandrollreport.com),
Whilst back in Toronto earlier this year,
I was fortunate indeed to be invited to a session
where an archival Mandala 2-CD set was, in fact, being painstakingly assembled
from an absolute wealth of hitherto-seldom (if ever!) -heard material.
Believe me, this is gonna be a GOOD one,
