tubular_trekkie Group: Members Posts: 366 Joined: Sep. 2005 Posted: May 02 2009, 12:54 All this talk of re-releasing (and revamping?) the Virgin albums has got me thinking: what about a TSODE Special Edition repack? Yeah, I know it's a Warner release, so it won't be amongst the Universal/Mercury overhaul plans, but wouldn't it be great to get an ultimate version of this album? Here's the sort of stuff I'd love to see included: The complete CD-ROM track to be playable on both PCs and Macs The B sides of the singles as bonus tracks All the available artwork - possibly including a poster and/or postcards A copy of TSODE novel by Arthur C Clarke What do you think? Any other suggestions? -------------- "The concept of progress acts as a protective mechanism to shield us from the terrors of the future." - from 'Collected Sayings of Muad'Dib' by the Princess Irulan Back to top

Rider in the Blue Group: Members Posts: 34 Joined: Dec. 2010 Posted: Jan. 19 2011, 23:10 My special edition of TSODE would be: A 2 LP pressing on 180g virgin vinyl*, the first containing the album and the second containing B-sides and bonus material; CD-ROM of the video content playable on Windows; Accompanying booklet containing all the CD artwork; Illustrated record sleeves; Fully illustrated gatefold cover'; A copy of Clarke's novel. *Anti-static vinyl please; has anyone else noticed that WEA LPs generate more static than other labels? :-) Trekkie, I love the idea of packaging the book with the album; I haven't read it yet... -------------- "Our hope's with you..."
