P.S. In case anyone is wondering, these are NOT suggestions for titles to be transferred from vinyl. These are titles that will have master tapes suppled by the labels.

Found that old post that gives the correct timeline. Entry on Renascent's site was:

1/2/07 - our license with Warner Bros for the 3 Sound albums - Jeopardy, From The Lions Mouth & All Fall Down - has expired and they are now deleted. Warners will be releasing them on the original Korova label later this year. It's been a privilege...

I find it amazing these are so hard to get these days. I lent out my copy of SCREAMING BLUE MESSIAHS - Gun Shy ('86) in college and never got it back. Who'da thunk?!?! C'mon WEA lets get this stuff out sometime this century. Gun-Shy is a great album if I remember correctly.

Sony could definitely put out the Red Rockers - Condition Red album properly on CD. Perhaps Wounded Bird can too... they put out all the other stuff on 415/Columbia... why can't this album see the light of day is beyond me. It is a classic punk LP.

The Telex LP on Sire would be nice.

Probably not much of a seller:
Data - Elegant Machinery (Sire)
The dude behind the project already 'remastered' it a few years ago, and has been selling it via his website.

Not so popular in the US, but they were big in Canada:
Platinum Blonde - Standing in the Dark
Platinum Blonde - Alien Shores
(both under the Sony umbrella, I believe)
Still waiting for their DVD to be released, which I heard was ready a couple of years ago.


There's always A-Ha and Alphaville's first two album (both WEA). I think if there were some 12" versions added, people may buy them.

<br>The thing is, for a record co. to do this, there has to be sufficient demand. Is there??

I would imagine there's more of a "demand" for the reissues, than some of the stuff they release, and thats on the radio now, LOL?

One of my major beefs with the labels has always been how they shit on the fans so much. They basically lollygag when it comes to giving us anything like this(reissues), however...need the new Avril Levigne? we got 200,000 copies for you, just call them.[:(!][:X][}:)]

WEA: Peter Schilling "Error in the system" and "Things to come".

I'm amazed these are not available, and both would fit on 1 CD.

[br]I've been speaking to a few label reps in the U.S. about reissues and I wanted to come to YOU to help expand my list of suggestions.


If you had access to the WEA archives (Warner Bros, Atlantic and Elektra and associated labels) and could reissue an album on CD, what would it be? Bear in mind that this would have to have been released in the U.S. originally....no import-only suggestions...


And If you had access to the Sony/BMG archives (CBS, Columbia, RCA, Arista, Jive, etc) and could do the same, which albums would you want to see reissued on CD? Once again, no import titles: only domestic (ie: U.S. release).

Here are what I have suggested to label representatives that have recently asked me:


WEA:

ALDA RESERVE-Love Goes On (1979) Sire
BLANKET OF SECRECY-Ears Have Walls (WB)
THE BLUEBELLS-Bluebells EP (1983) and Sisters (1984) Sire (both can fit on one CD)
ESPIONAGE-Espionage (1983) and ESP (1985) (Both Elektra)
FAY RAY-Contact You (1982) Elektra
MARTIN MULL-Perfect/Near Perfect 1979 (Elektra)
NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION/Soundtrack (1983 Warner Bros.
THE NITECAPS-Go To The Line (1982) Sire
POSITIVE NOISE-Change Of Heart (1982) Sire
G.E. SMITH-In The World (1981) Mirage
TAZMANIAN DEVILS-Self-titled (1980) and Broadway Hi Life (1980) Both on Warner Bros (will fit on one CD)
SCOTT WILK & THE WALLS-Self-titled 1980 Warner Bros



SONY/BMG

BOOMTOWN RATS-Mondo Bongo (US Version different from UK) Columbia
THE DADS/The Dads 1984 (Estate/Columbia) featuring Bryan Harvey, later of House Of Freaks
FASHION-Twilight Of Idols 1984 (Epic)
GREAT BUILDINGS-Apart From The Crowd (1980) Columbia
THE HITMEN-Aim For The Feet (1980) and Torn Together (1981) Columbia (both will fit on one CD)
THE LAUGHING DOGS-Self-titled (1979) and Meet Their Makers (1980) CBS both will fit on one CD
GARY MYRICK & THE FIGURES-Self titled (1980) and Living In A Movie (1980) Epic (both will fit on one cd)
NEW MUSIK-Sanctuary (1981) Epic Records
ROBERT ELLIS ORRALL-Fixation (1981) and Contain Yourself (1984) Both on RCA
PERMANENT WAVE-Various new wave comp (Epic) inc. After The Fire, Only Ones, etc
THE POP-Go (Arista) 1979
QUINCY-Quincy (1980) Columbia
ROMAN HOLLIDAY-Cookin On The Roof (1983) and Fire Me Up (1984) Jive (both can fit on one CD)
THE SINCEROS-Sound Of Sunbathing (1979) and Pet Rock (1981) Columbia (both will fit on one CD)

The Myrick CDs are CD-Rs from what I've heard....and mastered from vinyl....but I cannot guarantee that.

The Roman Holliday CD that is available is japanese only. It does have one or two tracks over the original domestic release if my memory serves correct...but perhaps they can fit both albums on one disc and make available for a cheaper price...
