I received my blur box last friday, so really early actually. I wasn't really in a blur mood, but the last days I've listened to some of the music. it looks fantastic, but the completist complaining: there are some songs intentionally left out, cause the band doesn't like them. I hate that. what I hate even more is that there are 7 extra tracks on the japan edition... but what IS on there is of course also a lot and the rematering on what I've heard this far is really beautiful.

everytime a favorite band of mine has these wonderful reissues (last few years: kinks, suede, pulp, smashing pumpkins, jesus and mary chain, even duran duran) I want to shake Prince (my all-time favorite) awake and say to him: your music really needs remastering, expanding, reissueing, more than any other artist, wake up! do it!
