I just got the remastered (and expanded) versions of
Mott the Hoople's "All the Young Dudes" and "Mott".
Both sound great and have some nice bounus tracks (a
couple of fav's are "All the Young Dudes" with a Bowie
lead vocal on the verses, and a faster demo version of
"Momma's Little Jewel").

But I just read yesterday that there is an remastered
(and expanded) version of "The Hoople" that is only
available for download ....I was really hoping to get
a 'real' version of this....and hoping the superior
version of "Roll Away the Stone" with Mick Ralphs on
guitar would be included. Ariel Bender was no
substitute for Mick in my opinion.

I don't believe that they're remastered. I was just
talking about this
the other day with a guy in the office and he didn't
think the sell
sheet said anything about them being remastered. There
are a few nice
bonus tracks on each, included the "Found All the
Parts" EP which makes
it's CD debut.

To make matters worse, they've released Next Position
Please as a
download-only title (I believe on iTunes).
