I know this has been done before, but still, do you really wish more? -------------- ASMK Back to top

I mostly enjoyed the music from his Virgin era, and see no reason an artist should cater to my nostalgia. I'm a bit sad that he didn't get to complete TB4 though, because I loved the bit he did complete. But I would really like to see a archive release from the Virgin years. Mike's focus when working on the deluxe re-issues, doesn't seem to have been getting all the unreleased stuff out there (which is natural from an artists point of view). I'm sure there are more unreleased music (Sally, Readdy Mix and probably a lot more). Perhaps this is possible now when Mike has officially retired. -------------- "There are twelve people in the world, the rest are paste" Mark E Smith Back to top

I think there might be stuff from 85-86 which is unheard. From a Barry Palmer interview, Mike rehearsed with a band during this period ("Man in the rain" among other songs), which was very "loose" sounding. I would be surprised if he didn't record some songs. It seems to have been a pattern for him, to praise the loose and organis approach between albums, but returning to click tracks and sequencers for the actual albums. -------------- "There are twelve people in the world, the rest are paste" Mark E Smith Back to top
