i am wondering if they will package A Night at the Opera with Hammersmith. You know, Super Deluxe Edition of NATO. Surely everyone wants to buy that album again?

I would hope not. The only CD I want is the full show and or anything else from that tour.

You have no choice. And I doubt that this will be.

All the big bands are stingy with opening up the vaults. I don't want or expect bands to release stuff that is rubbish, but I find it surprising when pretty much nothing comes out when there is surely plenty there that is worthy of release.
I think with a lot of 60's/70s bands in particular when they see how small album sales are compared to the past, they don't see enough financial reward for letting this stuff out and generally aren't bothered about letting people hear it. I also think to some extent "the archives" get mentioned to prospective new record labels, and is then dangled in front of them and the fans until that deal expires. Why do you think the Queen re-issues had such poxy bonus material.... why for instance on the first album we just got an acetate transfer of demos many fans have heard for years instead of any of the outtakes which do indeed exist? All this material is now sat on hardd rives, having long been transferred.
If QPL turned to Universal and told them they wanted to do big expanded 3CD boxsets of each album, they'd wet themselves. I know some elements like to pretend it's the nasty record labels who'd prefer to release pointless compilations - but that simply isn't true. If QPL handed over their archives to Universal tomorrow ans said "release what you want", it wouldn't be long before great stuff came out.[/QUOTE]
Exactly – look at how well the super deluxe editions of Paul McCartney's back catalog are doing. There's also a 33-disc Bananarama singles box set coming out. 33 discs?! I couldn't even tell you one Bananarama song off the top of my head, and if you put a gun to my head, I wouldn't be able to hum a few bars of their biggest hit.
(Fake edit: they did 'Venus'? Well, shut my mouth and call me Slappy, I had no idea.)
There's so much potential for QPL to trawl their archives and give fans something truly unique, but so long as they can sell a million copies/downloads of another 20-track greatest hits album, they'll continue to take the easy way out instead of showing an ounce of creativity. I think Rainbow '74 showed them that we do want this stuff, so hopefully they get the message eventually.
