The archive remasters series is becoming a joke.

Sometimes when things like this happen, it makes me wonder if MPL really does pay attention to this board looks over shoulder nervously

Kathryn O:
Okay, I'm glad they are finally coming out but having said that, I have a gripe: having two simultaneously is expensive when buying deluxe sets. I know it worked for McCartney and McCartney II but it is still pretty costly for those of us living in the bottom 14% who still work hard every day. dammit, Paul. Now I have to choose and pray I don't have any monetary emergencies in the next few months. What will happen is I'll buy one and my boyfriend will buy one and we'll each make copies to give to the other costing Paul money in the long run.
I agree completely, as each set is £79, for me it's a grocery bill. Not saying it wouldn't be nice to have these jam packed sets, but as it can boil down to money, some will have to be choosy.

Yep...you needed to be very quick on that deal. This was amazon canada.

I prefer to buy only standard version of both, I bought Wings Over America Deluxe, I guess is similar times and style... and I don't have money for more..
-
We should have two or three remakes by year. Look at Led Zep... Jimmy made LZ I, II and III in the same year, and IV and Houses of the holy are coming.

I think what drives these things are sales. Zeppelin's sales were off the charts, so they want to keep it going.

I'm pretty sure there will be a non deluxe version that will have both the regular 'album' cd as well as the bonus cd, but no DVD or book...which is what I'm opting for...Ram was the only one I splurged the big bucks for (and well worth it - it included Ram, Ram(mono), Thrillington, CD with bonus songs and other goodies I'm currently forgetting at the moment)
-
^^Ram in mono alone is worth it...the only way to listen to the greatest Beatles solo album ever I only plump for the 2CD sets...I don't need the books and the extra videos and stuff, I just want me some bonus tracks

Silly Love Songs Music Video 2. Wings Over Wembley 3. Wings In VeniceA few random thoughts: "You Gave me The Answer" is in the wrong place on the album. Totally ruins what Paul has going on side one. Let the album build before that little ditty. Should have been on side two...if at all. Wish Paul had sung "The Note You Never Wrote" instead of Denny Laine. Gorgeous song. "Cook Of The House" never should have been included on the album. An abomination. "Time To Hide" may well be the best song on the album. I think Paul was a little jealous of Denny Laine on this one.

Exactly. But I don't think that Macca's Archive collection is getting longer for sales, there's something more. You're saying that New is delaying the plans?
-
Why isn't Paul's version of The Note You Never Wrote not a bonus track? His version of Must Do Something About It is included. I have to say that the bonus goodies of Speed looks very thin when compared to V&M.

trying to order both sets on Amazon right now. When I choose the ordinary delivery option, it says that expected delivery time will be a month later than the release date. Is there no way to get them around the release date without paying a lot of extra cash? PS: I live in Denmark.

Well, Wings was growing up too fast and the rest of the members needed more space in the studio. I think that's the essence of SOS, give Laine, English, McCulloch and even Linda a place to make their own songs. And when the success comes, the egos come too. Wings demanded more space and Paul was feeling the loose "democratization" of the group, and probably didn't like it. I want SOS remastered please... I need to hear Beware my love with Bonzo. Can be a more exciting than already is?

Try Amazon Germany, I've got good experience with them (I live in Holland)....

Thank you, I will try that..
