Blu for me. There will be a surround mix, I trust?

Yep, new stereo and 5.1 mixes.
Maybe there might be a new instrumental mix and the original stereo mix too.

Wow he stays busy!

Yes !

Oh yeah. One of my favorite GG albums overseen by Steven Wilson. Very excited about this. Now I have something to look forward to in March other than the Mets in Spring Training.

Hi guys.

Sorry to say but apparently this release is not happening after all.

Someone who works with Steven Wilson had this to say about this "release" on the QQ forum:

"Sorry guys,
Steven Wilson tells me to tell you that this news item was a mistake (I guess someone heard a rumour and got over-excited).
To date, no Gentle Giant album has been remixed by SW or anyone."

I DID see the original post on the GG Facebook page, so it's their fault, not mine…

richman666 · 15 Nov 2006

But now I have nothing to look forward to in March. This is devastating. Haha....I think I'll get over it, but I hope someone will take this concept seriously & start remixing the GG catalog for surround sound.

I've marked this as "cancelled" in the title. Perhaps we'll be able to revive the thread in the future.

This is what I 'hate' about social media. Someone can use Facebook or Twitter and fabricate news that can create great interest. I was for a moment very excited with the news and now when the truth comes out I get more disillusioned by Facebook etc.

People use these methods of communication very unprofessionally

JohnG · 03 Aug 2006

Yeah I was a bit surprised by the news as I had heard nothing about Steven mixing Gentle Giant (he's been on a massive world tour for quite awhile now).

hwk · 14 Oct 2006

I was hoping it was true[I only have two of their cds and was looking to get this one too but won't until there's a 5.1 mix available]

In my case, it's more like "Is there ANYTHING I don't hate about Social Media?!"

:lol:

Linda, I think you are going to have to expand the field if you'd like me to add any more hates!

Linda · **Posted:** Sat Dec 21, 2013 5:03 pm

Well, you could spill over into your signature if need be.

My God, this title and "Free Hand" are two all time favorites from Gentle Giant. I am so getting this!

Also on the way this Summer are my stereo / 5.1 remixes of Jethro Tull’s A Passion Play (a 2 CD / 2 DVD set including the “lost” 1972 Chateau Tapes album), Gentle Giant’s The Power and the Glory (Blu-Ray/CD and DVD/CD), and XTC’s Drums and Wires (Blu-Ray/CD and DVD-A/CD).
