I was speaking previously about the progress - or, more accurately, the lack of progress - on our awaited tenth album, but of course as everyone knows, things were much better when we were a lad.
Spurred on by the successful reissue of our 2006 album Dusk and its accompanying archive
a couple of years ago, we have also been looking at remastering some of
the material from the preceding seven albums.
Unfortunately there's a
lot of work involved, as some of them aren't in particularly great shape
any more, and honestly a lot of them never were. At best, they are crackly, unclear recordings, and in a number of notable instances the original recordings no longer actually exist.
On the plus side (inevitably, that statement depends on your perspective) there are something like 250 tracks to choose from - that's approximately 150 songs, and 100 remixes, second parts, and alternative versions. A lot of them have never seen the light of day before, and we're hopeful that a lot of them never will, but hidden in amongst them, there are actually one or two good apples.
So what next? More on that next time...
