WF:

Well, if we have time to change their minds, we should. After the success of
LIVE AT LEEDS, they should be convinced of the marketablility of a live
boxed set. Tom Petty put out a 6 disk set after just releasing a greatest
hits...a 5 CD live Who boxed set would be huge.
Is there really indication that MCA (whom I would like to blame on this one,
too...except you will tell me that it's not them) will release live material
after they finish with the remixes? That might not be so bad...I wouldn't
mind having a concert from each tour. Have you heard this for real? Or are
you speculating; the Hendrix effect I would call it.
Thanks for the info about Isle Of Wight. I'm going to call Sprockets today
to make sure I don't get the Various CD.
