The Remasters and their impact on future releases

[gareth brown]

Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me would go on Zooropa surely? It was recorded then for a start, and it SORT of finishes of the Zooropa era before they went on to Passengers so to put it on Original Soundtracks 1 wouldn't make much sense (even though it WAS for a soundtrack )

I really hope they re-release Original Soundtracks 1 with a bonus disc of stuff they didn't use. Apparantley there was quite a lot, I mean with Brian Eno I wouldn't be bloody surprised!

Achtung Baby is really starting to worry me as well, what are the chances of a 3-disc set with a dvd, or a third CD with just remixes?

Why ? If any U2 era is loaded with video footage its Zoo TV...

I agree. If the band can't decide on a concert they could always always make it a little ZooTV compilation. It'd be great to see WGWYWH and 1st leg footage.

You'd be surprised how much a digital recorded album can improve with a remaster. Not sure if it'll be the case with Pop as I thought that one already sounded quite good. Need to listen again soon.
