Thanks for your reply. Have you had any success with Universal/Polydor requests? Don’t mean to be disrespectful but as I don’t know who you are do you have enough clout for Universal/Polydor to really take notice of you? If they are like any other business if you don’t deal directly with the top nothing happens unless you are big enough to make them notice you and see it as a priority. You know far more about this than me, so I apologise if you take offence, but there must be a way to improve the odds. I’m just thinking who else we would need to deal with to get things moving? For me a timescale Of 3-5 years would be totally acceptable, it’s more a concern that it will never happen.
Would it help to have information on;
Where the tapes are?
Which unreleased tracks there are?
Getting an agreement from all copyright holders for a release (tracks with 7 writing credits must be a nightmare to sort out legally).
Also do we know if anyone else has also requested licences to reissue (eg the Steve Strange Collective?)
I’d be happy to try to make contacts to find this out if we had a backing release company (eg you Rubellan).

(Besides, it came out on RCA too, as opposed to Visage's Polydor.)
RichardAnvil wrote:Nice suggested track list, though it misses off both the original and the John Hudson remixed In The Year 2525. You could add in all the 7” versions of the four singles too.
I personally I’m not sure about including the Ronny track. I know it was produced by Midge and Rusty but are the musicians Visage? Having said that I’d love to have a Ronny CD compilation too.
