I would prefer a set with their contributions over something where the label simply throws together a bonus disc of 12-inches and b-sides (unless the label somehow has another way to access the unreleased material).
I'm not so sure. Reissues are done by the label, and artists usually want to move forward, while labels want to cash in on past glories. From everything we know, Lindsey is very much focused on moving forward with new material, not on wasting his time rehashing the old stuff.
