I read about it months ago and is something i will have to pick up Is there a box set? I know Island are remastering all the albums, and releasing them on vinyl as well. I'm waiting for EMI to reduce the price of the singles box sets. I have 1, but they're too bloody expensive. May and Taylor have been in the studio of late........ It's their 40th year,so Queen are going to be everywhere. Bar Freddie, obviously. And John. Island are going to milk their new fatted calf. Not that you can milk a fatted calf. I read Box Set or single purchase of all the albums . I assume the Box Set will be cheaper so i gotta go with that. I have all the old albums but none, except The Game on c.d.

Not sure I'll go with them all this time, bought most of them 1st time round on cassette, have all of them on vinyl, some on 1st gen cd and all on the EMI remasters...... BUT! If they can clean up some of the lost tracks like Silver Salmon and Hangman I might be interested....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazz is the sound of a band absolutely wrecked from 5 years of touring, recording and partying. And bringing back oy Thomas Baker was a mistake. It has some great moments, Jealousy, If You Can't Beat Them, Dead On Time and the singles, but Leaving Home Ain't Easy. Mustapha, Dreamers Ball, Fun It and In Only Seven Days are pure filler, to these ears anyhoo. The only track on NOTW I can't abide is Sleeping On The Sidewalk. I LOVE In Only Seven Days.

I am kicking myself, now. John Deacon is retired and did not participate in the "reunion". wow, I was unaware. Thanks for the correction. So, who was playing bass for the Rodgers tour?

Yes & no.... Any new album tracks have been out before, as b-sides, Mad The Swine for instance, was on the flip side of Headlong. But there are a lot of cool unreleased live tracks, but only on the more expensive disc. Island have, in my opinion, shot themselves in the foot here. You can buy the standard(no extra tracks) remastered disc for around 12 euro, there's another version for 17euro with the extra tracks. Rip off. I'll wait......They'll all be under 10 quid in a few months. If you go onto Youtube, a guy called Dave R Fuller has uploaded a complete treasure trove of unreleased tracks and rarities, including the metal splendour of Silver Salmon & the funky Free-like Hangman.
