Simple question for all?

If EMI won't put out the Syd Barrett stuff,how on earth why should they put
out Q,S & C,25 Years,ASAM.

Some of you will ask what Charisma has to do with EMI
Simple:Virgin bought Charisma and Virgin was then bought by EMI.
So it's all up to EMI.
Hoping not causing a stir.

greetings
