Any news on the Blue Horizon reissues?

It was quite some time ago rumours started about Mike Vernon and Sony going to rerelease the compplete Blue Horizon catalogue.

Anybody with some info here. It has been awfully silent about these gems...

I figured I'd be old and gray by the time that actually happened.

I have Dog and Dustbin.....and it *seems* to be remastered. It has extra tracks and stuff on it. When I go back to my apartment tonight, I have to look and see if it really is. I got it off Amazon.

Yeah, the Fleetwood Mac albums are remastered (the same versions as in the boxset I think). But what about all the other albums?!

I've heard nothing. I was looking for the Christine Perfect album & maybe some Chicken Shack stuff. I have a bad feeling that Mike Vernon has shelved the whole thing.

All I can say is that at one point all of the Mac's Blue Horizon stuff, as well as Chicken Shack's "Fourty Blue Fingers...," "O.K. Ken?," and the Christine Perfect album were all issued on CD in Europe. I know, because I got my greedy little fingers on them years ago. Maybe Ebay might have something. I do remember talk about reissuing the whole lot, as well as other Blue Horizon albums. But I've not heard anything since. What I do remember about the Mac's stuff is that the albums were going to be the same as what was in the Blue Horizon box, just individually sold.

Nah. The Blue Horizon stuff is still quite popular in Europe, and there's enough of a following with the Green material to give it the proper treatment it deserves. I think so long as the album has Peter Green or Lindsey Buckingham on it, an album will get the royal treatment. Which of course means that you shouldn't hold your breath on the "Kiln House" through "Heroes" stuff.
