Rubellan/Scott,
I have no issues with you. Your anti-brickwalling campaign is VERY important, particularly with regard to Cherry Red.
What has exhausted me is not re-releasing, but re-re-re-rereleasing. Every time adding some detritus. LIKE SINGLE EDITS. To revisit this for the millionth time, the existing Altered images releases are fine. This includes greatest hits sets as well as full albums. I'm not going to buy them again. You just know the 50th anniversary is going to come out later with more crap, probably better sound, but at some point you have to stop.
The labels that issue unheard music, rather than heard but improvements of arguably flawed music, just seem more significant to me.
