Bleh. I'm just sick of it. Let's have the Mirage & Tango remasters, pls. Also, I would love for someone to explain this to me. A couple of years ago, two of Laura Nyro's most obscure albums were finally put on CD after 25-30 years. Now, first of all, most people have probably never even heard of Laura Nyro, so the market for these discs was very small, and I doubt much money at all was made. Yet somebody saw fit to release them.

Mirage & Tango were both #1 albums. Surely the market for them is many, many times the market for those LN albums (which hardly anybody bought to begin with, and that is not a knock against those works at all - I love them). So I don't get the "Oh, they just wouldn't sell" excuse. Is it simply that they wouldn't make as much money as WB (or whoever) would like, not that they wouldn't turn a profit?
