Mirage and Tango Remastered
 

Hello fellow Ledgies! I was wondering if anyone might have heard about plans of Fleetwood Mac remastering Mirage and Tango in the Night... I'm aware that Rumours is being re-released again in September, but I'm not aware of any plans for the other ablums of 1975-87. (Just curious is all...) :)

Unfortunately there are no plans that we know of yet. This current tour would have been a perfect excuse to release remasters of those two albums but instead we are getting yet another Rumours.

I would love both of these albums to get the treatment they deserve! Unfortunately Tango In The Night seems to be forgotten since Christine left. Apart from Big Love it gets no recognition at all. It's a real shame because there are some amazing songs on it. The title track, Caroline, Seven Wonders (amazing)....

Isn't It Midnight, Mystified, Everywhere You And I Welcome to the Room...

man i love that album...

I totally agree....it is a missed opportunity....They can release so much 'stuff' (same for Stevie solo stuff too) heck even there own videos too would be nice to have....but like someone said another Rumours thing......I guess we'll have to see what that's gonna be too? If it still gets released...since they keep pushing it back all the time.....Time will tell....I love Mirage better than Tango......they could also re-issue Mask.....but I know it wasn't a big seller back in the day......its ok......:shrug::nod::D
They could also remaster the "Live" lp with extras too.....LOL like thats gonna happen right.......

The fact that TITN was so big in the UK/Ireland and Europe must surely make it worthy of a rerelease. I've seen bands that have albums that haven't even gone anywhere near to gold remaster albums from the 80's (Pentagram did it and they sell hardly anything). Fleetwood Mac are missing an opportunity by not doing it.

Oh god there have been so many threads about this, will they just do it already :laugh:

I doubt if it is ever gonna happen anymore love both albums. I grew up with Tango even before i had heard any of the others and Tusk and Mirage grew on me (love both now) anyway the thing is (atleast over here, the cd business is failing (only last month another one here in town was closed and replaced by a game media store), and the cd's you do find are mostly greatest hits. I really noticed this when i became a big (Mama) Cass Elliot fan early this year (after being a casual one before). Some of her stuff has never even been released to cd to begin with (thank god for vinylrips) and all you can get in stores are best of's, heck we are all even still waiting for an oficial Buckingham/Nicks.
Don't get me wrong i'd love to get remastered tango and mirage, i just 'don't see it happening (atleast not on a large scale)
lets hope though! These are masterpieces !! They can even put some of those nice b-sides and 12" versions "h,h,h ,h,h, house on that hill, house up on that hill yeah" ;-)

Mirage is in DESPERATE need of remastering.

I finally found a car system that will amplify... Now I can actually hear some of the details of the album...

It will probably always be my favourite album cos it was the first Fleetwood Mac album I heard and then subsequently owned. I have two vinyl copies (one for every day and one for special occasions:laugh:) and they sound really good even now. I agree that the cd sounds pretty ****.

With Warner dropping all Stevie's back catalogue of albums, I'm guessing that'll be a pretty good watermark that they WON'T be remastering any of Fleetwood Mac's lesser selling albums anytime soon. :distress:

Would you guys mind to questionmark a threadtitle if you're asking for something? I just went bezerk reading "Mirage and Tango Remastered ".

Same thing with that "Atlantic City-dvd"- thread.

The group drew roaring applause for a punchy, electric-guitar-tweaked version of The Alison Yip School For Girls (off debut album Songbook), a song Hamilton described as "our answer to [Fleetwood Mac's] Tango In The Night," but the highlight of their set was a stellar reworking of And As The Ship Went Down, You'd Never Looked Finer, off the forthcoming Die Stadt Muzikanten.

It's one of my favorites. The good stuff on it is incomparably good (although the junk on it is filler).
