this is fantastic news!

spent some money on macula transfer recently and own now all original cds except epsilon, but still a great release, especially with the solo 1974-1979 extras!

only minor quibble would be that they cramp the original albums on the discs and sometimes split them over two discs, but since hardly anybody would have expected such a re-release, I really cant complain...

Yeah, but I guess that's because Macula was not released by Virgin ?

No idea why it wasn't though...
