But I wouldnt consider "Directors Cut" a "remaster" - those were, as Wiki puts it, ".....remixed and restructured, three of which were re-recorded completely...." Those can be fun to hear but I dont like wasting full release cycles on them. Tack them on with something else, fine. Wasnt into Kylies orchestrals or George's. A Director's Cut also came with the remastered versions of The Sensual World and the Red Shoes, mine is a 3CD set.

I’ve started collecting the new remastered vinyl, I listened to Station To Station the other day and it sounded great, looking forward to my New Career New Town box set arriving tomorrow, I’m fascinated by this era. Hopefully that glitch on Heroes is fixed. For me, a new reissue / remastered pressing all the way, I’ve had so many original pressings that initially look fine but then tend to to have excessively loud cracks and pops, and other issues like jumping on the first song (usually the hit single). Also, the latest batch of reissues have been on sale in HMV recently, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for deals.

Great album, red vinyl for me.

It was available, I only heard about this release on the day while queuing, I managed to get it in Manchester.

Thanks! I got them all except Suede.

I can't find my copy of Gold Experience, and now it sell rather high so it's not like I can replace it.

It’s the blond ambition version that I want experience live

This is what I got from it too. For me, the highlight of the night was when she told us all to stop being diva bitches, I couldn't stop laughing, yet, people got offended by it and left. Someone said on Popjustice a while ago that the reason for the lateness was to do with Rocco, and that the screen situation was an excuse. Not sure where they got their source from though, probably a rumour.

I feel as though this whole “end of CDs” thing is being forced upon us. I’ve seen social media meme posts such as “things I no longer have in my house”, CDs and DVDs being one of them, and all the comments were people declaring they still have all their CDs and DVDs. I don’t know anyone who is CD free.

I want to get Low and Heroes but think I might wait until they are £12 on amazon. Also waiting to find out if Heroes has been fixed. Last I heard the botched discs were replaceable through the label. I got Hunky Dory as a gift but haven’t opened it yet. I mainly use my Nothing Has Changed Vinyl when in the mood for Bowie.

The Cure Mixed Up AND Torn Down (being the priority as it’s an entirely new release) Suede - 25th Anniversary vinyl Eurythmics - 1984 Both Madonna LPs Human Leagues - Secrets its going to be an expensive day.

Just watched Drowned World tour for the first time in a long time. Gets me every time she randomly picks up a shotgun and shoots one of her dancers. I was a kid when she did this tour, so getting a ticket to go was impossible, but I truly enjoy watching this and reflecting on that Madonna era. Even if she was married to that dick head. im also rewatching Ciao Italia and Blonde Ambition, I really do love those drawn out synth pad moments of Live to Tell and the end of Who’s That Girl.

Absolutely gutted by this, one of my favourite bands, her voice was angelic. I've been obsessed with her solo album Are You Listening recently, such a sad loss. RIP Dolores.

I quite like the lead single from the Xmas album, I was a bit harsh on it at first but it’s actually really cute.

Lmao, Kidz Bop, I couldn’t believe that’s actually an album when I saw it advertised on TV.

And in 2017 we still don’t have the correct versions of the albums...

Probably because it took a long time to get her back catalogue on iTunes, or was that Metallica.

I think there is a family package for £14.99 a month. it is established that if you only stream music and don’t buy it then therefore you don’t own it?

I honestly can't remember the last time I bought a digital download, if I want to own something I'll buy the CD or vinyl, I now use Spotify to stream when I'm on the go, and I really like it, when I see people refusing to pay £9.99 a month because they are happy with the 'free version with ads', I can't help but question why.

I really love The Carpenter's Christmas Portrait album, Merry Christmas Darling is one of my favourite Xmas songs of all time, the rest of the album is sublime.

Ha so true. I thought the same as I typed that sentence.

I loved this song at the time, it reminded me of the 90s sound so much.

Lilly Allen looks like a dinner lady who nobody cares about anymore.
