Personally Id like to Have  "The Songs of Distant Earth" rereleased in a nice Digi Pack with a Windows Version of the Multi Media Item on it...     -------------- We're Flying Aeroflot, We've Got Reservations.

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Nov. 10 2007, 17:33 Oh, there are lots I'd ask for. Here are some: - A tracked Amarok. Yes, a 52-track CD. - An official release in 5.1 and DTS of Hergest Ridge, original mix. But Mike doesn't like that album, so... - An official CD release of Platinum, inlcuding "Sally". - A remix of QE2 (the title track). - A Killing Fields release comprising all the music from the film, including of course the "Dark Room" segment. - An Earth Moving 2. I'd love to see Mike writing pop songs again! -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Nice-looking double disc (digipack of course) with both mixes, liner notes from Tom Newman + previously unseen photographs. 2. CD release of the Space Movie (or was that Reflections?) material. I'm talking of the short instrumentals that I downloaded somewhere which among other things contained themes later used in Platinum. 3. Re-release of Discovery with bonus tracks (singles B-sides plus the mysterious songs that appear on a piece of paper in a photo on the inner sleeve). That would be just enough for me! -------------- "There are twelve people in the world, the rest are paste" Mark E Smith Back to top

ProjectZ Group: Members Posts: 243 Joined: July 2002 Posted: Nov. 11 2007, 04:24 I really would like a complete remastered collection of Mike's Virgin Years with a lot of bonus material (at least one bonusdisc for an album)... A bit like Pet Shop Boys with their 'Further listening...' releases of their first 6 (?) albums... Or like the new Alan Parsons Project Deluxe Edition of 'Tales of Mystery and Imagination' (original 1976 + remixed 1987 version + 8 bonustracks) Something like (all digipack of course, with nice booklet) : Tubular Bells : remastered + singles + some live stuff (first live performance or so) or the demos (now only available on TB2003-DVD) Hergest Ridge : both mixes remastered Orchestral Tubular Bells : remastered + Orchestral Hergest Ridge Ommadawn : .... and so on till Heaven's Open... So that we have everything that Mike has recorded during the Virgin period (all singles, all extended versions,...) I know... dream on...   -------------- the VANGELIS forum : Invisible Connections ( http://www.vangelis.fr/ ) Back to top

Clarke), making-ofs, etc. Something like Alan Parsons' "A Valid Path". Back to top

jonnyw Group: Members Posts: 522 Joined: Oct. 2005 Posted: Nov. 11 2007, 16:06 I wouldn't be looking for any re-relases of music.... but I would love one of the PRS guitars he sold on, or his Clavia Nord Lead synth would be a great tool to have. -------------- Grand piano. Reed and pipe organ. Glockenspeil. Bass guitar. Vocal chords. Two slightly sampled electric guitars. The venitian effect. Digital sound processor. And Tubular bells.
