Really wish they would bring a deluxe version of HT out & a long overdue vinyl of it, the band were pretty damn good around this time i think Bob returning to the fold gave them a much needed kick up the arse - pity it all went a bit downhill again afterwards. Heavy Traffic is 1 of 3 in the next & last batch of Deluxe Editions That'll be good. Is Heavy Traffic getting any treatment at all? Remastering or whatever? As for the other two, I can wait for the info. Albeit impatiently If they're not doing a deluxe on Don't Stop or Famous...., I can't see Riffs getting a makeover. I mean, apart from also being a covers album, the band practically disowned it But ta for the snippets of information. Always appreciated, mate.

Don't Stop, Famous and Heavy Traffic I assume. Probably Live Alive Quo and Riffs, in addition to Heavy Traffic. Considering, if I'm not mistaken, those are the only albums that Universal has rights on. Yes, I thought about the Live Alive...But I was hopping something else instead of Riffs But Famous was released by Universal, doesn't it? Don't Stop seems possible since Demon Records released the album in vinyl just a few months before Universal released the second vinyl collection but that and the singles from Famous were released also in the singles box, so... Under the Influence it's off the table, I know that.

I have mentioned it elsewhere (on here and possibly the other side) and didn't want to mention it again until it was official and closer to the time of release etc, but oh well it's been done now ... it's; Live Alive Quo, Heavy Traffic and Riffs. I'd also mentioned the rights thing because that isn't common knowledge to fans

I'd also mentioned the rights thing because that isn't common knowledge to fans Yes, I remember you saying something at this forum about the extras of Live Alive some time ago (maybe before the release of the last batch), and something about an unreleased show from the Heavy Traffic period, so that doesn't surprise me. But Riffs...No, I can't imagine that. I hope Live Alive Quo will contain the brief banter from Francis between the songs and the original running order (Caroline the last, not like the 2006 remaster, which was before Roadhouse Blues). Your secret is safe

They're going to release an album of cover versions of the cover versions on the cover versions albums.

Still sung with a pseudo American twang, can't stand it when they do that.

But it's confirmed that there are going to be another deluxe batch? That's great news! (even better knowing that you are one of the guys behind the wheel) Don't Stop, Famous and Heavy Traffic I assume. Yep, one last batch. Tracklistings are all done. Took a couple of months to complete as they changed several times before finalising them. I know the pain It's a bit much to expect a listing to be perfect first time around, especially when new stuff keeps popping up all over the place...

roquerAlways loved Rossi's crowd chatter from this show, even though it was cut down on the VHS release and cut completely from the audio release. As I said, leave it with me and it will get sorted. frozenhero It needed to be in a month or two back, on a Friday and even then I was still making last second changes

Riffs is an odd one but, to be fair, the gigs around that time were excellent. At least it'll look nice on the shelf beside the others

Are they remixing Heavy traffic. Sound production is another poor one I think despite some great material
