The only people who will buy that is rreal Bowie fans.
A toatal rip off and the recocrd company showing a total lack of respect to the fans.
But im sure it will be downloadable in time

Bloody hell Jim-if the Stranglers released anything at that price the forum would be inundated with disgruntled fans complaining about being ripped off!

As much as I love Bowie I wouldn't pay that kind of money. His albums have been re-released umpteen times in the last 20 years and just adding a few studio outtakes and some obscure live recording is not a dangling carrot to the most ardent fan for that price.

[Jake]

Yeah and I for one couldn't see the stranglers really hoping to shift such a package...

Not that I would ever get it (unless someone gave it me ) that is a mega package. Does anyone know if it is just Station to Station getting this treatment or other Bowie albums as well? Have to say Station to Station is one of my favorite Bowie albums actually.

"Super Deluxe"...wot a hi-tech label. I suppose "New and Improved" was already taken by a soap company.

[MULLY]

Already been done with loadsa others - I was nearly tempted by The Stone Roses anniversary package - but have the original vinyl and CD, but I did shell out on the 'special' anniversary remastered CD plus extras when given an HMV voucher at Chrimbo.

Deluxe would do me.

I have said it before, the two that stand out for me as exemplary reissues compiled with love that only a real fan can inject are:

London Calling
All Mod Cons

I still fail to understand why something similar couls not be done with the Ravem. The material is there and I am convinved that there is sufficient interest to make the venture financially viable!
