Who wrote this crap? Everything here is wrong.
Another Silent Day - #71
Send My Heart - #62
Feel the Raindrops - #58
Their only U.K. Top 20 -- and U.S. Hot 100 -- hit was "Broken Land." (U.K. #20, U.S. #95)

<br>if the biog is sooo wrong, i hope the use of the word 're-mastered' isn't wrong aswell . . .

I hope it is a good re-master as well , I am so pleased this is coming out again , this album really needs the recognition it deserves
Now if someone releases Secession's Dark Enchartment by the end of the year Santa can have christmas day off

<br>if it's Cherry Red, they'll probably source a copy of the existing CD and take the bonus tracks from vinyl - the missing 12" mix is probably left off from time restraints. still, if it makes an otherwise expensive CD affordable again for people who don't have big incomes or inherit property/legacies, then it's a good thing.

Dave, as a matter of fact a CD of all 12" and long versions was issued a while back, which I have a copy of. Probably this is the source. I have got "Theodore And Friends" CD as well but again I am very excited to see Cherry Red is re-issuing it as this underrated record deserved a come back.

<br>I would have taken the two live tracks out and stuck in the extended version of "Two Rivers" and the other version of "Send My Heart".

Oh, of course. I would have done the same exact thing. The US extended version is far superior to the UK mix in my opinion.

All , I ordered my copy from cherry red and got the CD on Thursday , well impressed an surprised, I played it once in the car and the remaster sounds very good to my ears (not an expert). Booklet is ok but looks quite cheap. If you have the vinyl album the cover was very light and this is extremely dark.However this is only a minor nitpick , it is so good that this album is out again

Got mines today and i have to say the sound is top notch, Could have done with a couple of more remixes on it instead of those live tracks. It always baffled me why this album was ignored at the time.
