People! Have we been following the same band all these years? I don't understand where this kind of naivete possibly comes from. This is Fleetwood Mac we're talking about. *If* any of the pre-1975 albums are ever remastered or reissued, it ain't going to be anytime soon. Hell, I'll be very surprised if we see Mirage or Tango reissued before the decade is out. These kinds of projects just don't seem to be of very much import to the band (or, perhaps more accurately, to Mick or John). And in the meantime, you're missing out on some incredible music. And THAT's a waste.
Yep...I held out as long as I could (due to lack of funds) to get the three remasters...I had the original CDs, so I found a store that buys back used CDs (or gives store credit) ...so I basically traded in the old CDs for the new ones...sure I had to drop a few $'s in on the deal too, but actually, for the price of buying ONE remaster, I got all three. Since it really looks like the rest of the catalogue isn't going to be released all that soon, you can pick up the pre-BN era Mac albums usually for under $10 apiece. When/if they're re-released, trade 'em in for the remastered ones.
