Well, has there ever been a CD reissue of the two Yaz albums, at least in the US? I remember a best-of from a few years ago that was remastered, but when I go to the stores, I only see the original crappy catalog CDs from the late '80s. Having proper remasters of the entirety of both albums would justify the purchase of the new set to me.
later,
Miles

>While I loved Yazoo and would be very interested in seeing them live, I can do without the reissue of those 2 albums and yet another 12" dance remix. I recall there was another set of Yazoo dance remixes back in the late 90's.
