Having said that, I doubt I'll be bothering with those re-issues. They just look like a cynical ploy to encourage people to re-buy albums that they already have. I'm quite happy with my original Twin-Tone / WEA editions thank you very much


That goes for ALL reissues as far as I'm concerned! It's obviously a cynical ploy to keep their profit margins up as sales continue to decline.

Especially these days when they're on the fourth-time-remastered and everytime-it-gets-louder-with-less-dynamics versions of Zep etc. records.

As for bonus tracks: if an album has been reissued already without them, I have to assume there is a good reason the "bonus" material went unreleased until now!! Maybe "penalty tracks" is a more appropriate term.
