BOC: contemporary review of Imaginos CD re-release.

[gary shindler]

Earlier I mentioned that BOC's catalogue through "Imaginos" was on Columbia/CBS/Sony. I forgot that "Club Ninja" was rereleased on Koch. 

The artists have to pay for remastered/reissued CDs?  That's whack. In that case it should be a RhinoHandmade like issue where the artists don't have to eat the unsold copies.

reissued and remastered and bonus tracked that Albert, you had mentioned 
the funds for that came out of band members pockets?  If so, I would 
think that the lament for Imaginos is the same for near all of the BOC 
albums; which leads to the question: Is it worth it from a financial 
perspective? 

Of course if another publishing house was able to secure the rights to 
it and put their own funds into re-mastering, etc. then that would 
probably be everyones wet dream!  Of course that would probably also 
remove the artists from the equation...
