Another Remaster

[Andrew Smith]

What are Rhino or Rhino Flashback think they're playing at? First, we get a re-issue of Rumours, when we already had a quite satisfactory re-issue in 2004. Now the same goes for the 1975 Fleetwood Mac album.

How about a complete overhaul of the Fleetwood Mac back-catalogue that's yet to see any remastering or expansion. I've made a list below of the complete back-catalogue and marked in capital letters the albums that need the remastering and expanding they all deserve:

Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac - Remastered & Expanded by Sony in 2004

Mr. Wonderful - Remastered & Expanded by Sony in 2004

These first two albums were released on the old CBS label, which now comes under Sony Music. Both these albums were remastered with bonus tracks in 2004.

I believe the rest of the catalogue to this day is owned by Warner/Rhino:

Then Play On - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Kiln House - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Future Games - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Bare Trees - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Penguin - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Mystery To Me - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Heroes Are Hard To Find - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Fleetwood Mac - Remastered & Expanded by Rhino/Warner in 2004

Rumours - Remastered & Expanded by Rhino/Warner in 2004

Tusk - Remastered & Expanded by Rhino/Warner in 2004

Live - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Mirage - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Tango In The Night - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

Behind The Mask - NEEDS REMASTERING & EXPANDING

That's 16 albums in the back-catalogue up until 1990 and only 5 of them have had a decent upgrade. I'm a strong believer in treating all albums equally when it comes to catalogue marketing. Come on Warner, pull yourself together and give all these albums the respect they deserve!
