Sisters of Mercy 5CD set. F&L&A, Floodland, Vision Thing, Some Girls, A Slight Case

[nightingale+therose]

THE SISTERS OF MERCY have re-issued five of their best selling and critically acclaimed albums (this is a quote - not my opinion) in a single 5CD set - "Original Album Series".

"A Slight Case of Overbombing", "Some Girls Wander by Mistake", "First and Last and Always", "Floodland" and "Vision Thing" will each be housed in a mini LP-style card picture sleeve with the complete set presented in a sealed card slipcase.

Don't know who'd be interested in this cause if you liked the Sisters, you'd already have First & Last & Always & possibly Floodland, and you really don't need the rest... do you?

Should this info be in the guilty pleasure thread?

Nothing "guilty" about it IMHO!
In fact right now I've got You Could Be The One on the brain - if I was in a karaoke bar in Nashville, I'd dedicate that song to my favorite living ghost in the area (clue: not a bad ghost)...
The disappointment with these reissues was that they still hadn't remembered to include the remarkable Afterhours. How many other songs do you know where the slender lyric describes a wild night of sex, drugs and rock 'n roll but the music sounds more like the chronic comedown the day after?

Hello,
Some Girls Wander..... to me is a must own SOM compilation. Any idea if this collection will/is remastered? Thanks in advance.
