The individual instruments would all have to have their own track. This is how Rumours and White Album and most of Tusk and Mirage were done. I also think that most of the prep work for the 5.1 mixes we do have were initially prepared many years ago. If I recall the 5.1 dvd of Rumours was initially started back in 1996/97. This is where the Stems for those songs come from. Tango might be very lush but I think loses coherency as it splits the instruments into dofferent channels. Think of how strange Pet Sounds would be is just the individual instruments played. By themselves the parts seem strange but together they make magic. I think Tango is like this. I bet if they had the ability to do it they would have done it.
I really did not care for a whole CD of crappy 80s dub mixes! i guess its better than a DVD of the Tango concert with the infamous bloated Stevie.

I got a little flamed a few months back when I wrote the lack of material for the re-release. A second disc of remixes is hardly interesting unheard material. I also was right about the group not releasing any live music from this era. Tango is probably my least favorite Mac album. I may get this re-release someday though.
