News: Fireballet's two albums to be reissued on CD finally! (but there's a but... of course there is)
Thanks to a comment from TheH, we've learned that these two star crossed albums will finally have ended years of absence on the (legal) CD market! Good news right?
Well maybe.
They are being done by Belle Antique of Japan. So there is good news in that these are legit. And they will be housed in the best possible album cover (their mini-LP jackets are superbly made). There is more possible good news that they may sound awesome. Or... they may not. Belle Antique's record is mixed on this front when they are the first to market, and that's because they don't do their own mastering - or at least they don't typically do their own mastering. Meaning they are reliant on the source provided them. Sometimes great (Old Man & The Sea, Speed Limit), sometimes not (Aquarelle, Eloiteron). I wasn't able to find any corroborating evidence on this reissue to research, but I know the source of the news to be valid. I'll buy it anyway and find out - and report back to the UMR site.
They should be available next month. The first album will feature 3 bonus tracks and "Two, Too", will feature... well duh... 2.

Thanks! I can see why this didn't pop up on my original searches. I should have looked only for Fireballet, CD, and Belle (no Antique)
