Metamatic Forums John Foxx Ultravox Systems of Romance Tour

So it IS possible to remaster that stuff.

Would be interesting to know the opinions of the musicians about it.
At least this one would be the missed part between all the remasters (Ultravox Mk1, Mk2 and John solo; which are all very well made!!). A piece of band history which is worth to release it.
If it ever would be happen it would be Easter and Christmas on one day for me!...

I still remain unconvinced of the value of releasing this stuff, or even pursung the idea.

So far, those of us enaged in this conversation have the recordings anyway...

I can't see how it fits in with a marketing plan for any of the artists involved either.

You're right Martin, we have the stuff, and I'm glad about this . But there could be done much more of the sound if it would be remastered.

If I listen to the live version of I Can't Stay Long from Humania or the Peel session, I can imagine how fantastic a cleaned recording of these boots can sounding like. Many of the sound gone lost between the hiss. It is worth to be remastered.

As for the marketing plan I think , it would be the same for the artists as they had released all the Island remasters. I remember we all never had thought this would be happen one day. It would only be the 4th CD in the set.

So if Gary Numan had done it - why not this stuff of Ultravox? At least there is not a must to buy it, but I would love to have a copy. And I'm not alone, I think...

You are not alone. It would be great, wouldn't it?
