Thanks, Frank, for the remasters -- I can hardly wait to hear your efforts on Strange Universe. Like Willy, this was my introduction to you and your first band. I can still remember hearing the title cut in '75 on CKCU-FM in Ottawa (Carleton University). I was a fan after hearing that first beautiful riff on the title cut.
Looking forward to hearing/reading your interview, Willy, and again, thanks for all you do to allow us to keep up to date on all things Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush.
A question for you Willy/Frank -- is the original artwork going to stay on the first three disks? I certainly hope so.
There are no bonus tracks. Just A Minute is releasing them and I do not have a release date, Check their site periodically as I will. No idea on cost, but they are Canadian releases, so they will be imports to the rest of us, I believe. I think that the original artwork will be prominant, but possibly not dominant! I also believe that they will be 3 seperate releases and not a combo.
I will post more when I know more. They sound awesome though.
I am hoping that they really somehow maintain the original artwork! Those records jumped out at ya in the record stores and hopefully they'll do the same in the smaller jewel box!!
I did have a question! On my BigBeat records remasters of the first 3, there was some "noise" at the beginning of the song "Look Outside" from Child...were the tapes used for those remasters the same ones Frank just used?
