New 3CD BBC Recordings

Nothing on the Silverline website either but the site looks like it hasn't been updated in a couple of months or more.

I emailed both record companies this evening to see if I can find out any information from them, so if they send me any info on these releases I'll be sure to post it.

You're right about the 2 different labels. I didn't notice that until you posted it. The prices of the two are also very different. The dual disc release is ALOT cheaper. Didn't Silverline release a DVD-audio version of the BBC set? I have a feeling the dual disc release might be those same tracks plus some video. Maybe the 3 CD set will be completely new & unreleased tracks(I hope). It's way more expensive. I'm just guessing here. Hopefully, you'll be able to get some more info from these record companies.

I can't find the 3-disc release anywhere on the internet. Has anybody heard anything new about this? Maybe someone's got a link?

The 3-disc release has disappeared. Sanctuary never even had it listed on their website. I assume this may have something to do with the dual disc release. It would probably be too confusing if they were both out at the same time. Hopefully, the 3 disc set has been only postponed, not permanently cancelled.

Hello from Italy!

A few days ago I got an email from David King (Pinnacle). So he wrote me that the record company (Sanctuary) has no plans to release the boxset for now.

Maybe it will see the light of the day later, this summer.

Sorry to disappoint you (and myself too!)

I had a feeling this box set wasn't going to happen, but thanks for the update.
