I think the time window for getting BN released has come and gone. For one thing, CD's are quickly dying along with the music biz in general. Secondly, neither Lindsey nor Stevie have anywhere near the visibility they enjoyed even ten years ago. And this is an album that most people have never heard, and as good as it is, it is not chock full of radio-friendly hits.

That being said, I think the only way to make this CD release a real event would be if they re-recorded every song, with the same musicians and producer, and also included the original album as well in a 2 CD set. If you think about it, Stevie's done this (re-recording old songs) already with the Soundstage Sessions CD. Oh, and they should re-shoot the front cover today in the same pose and (lack of) outfits! Even Michelangelo wouldn't have the stamina for that airbrushing job!
