Personally my fave Ten Years After album.

ten years after.

now there's a band that kind of got lost in the CD age. was their whole catalog even released on CD?

you certainly don't see much of their stuff out there.

Yes there was a nice reissue series many years back that had very worthwhile extras.

EMI(current owner of the Chrysalis catalogue) did an expanded remaster of "Cricklewood Green" & a 2-CD set of unreleased Fillmore East recordings.Ultimately,they could never find the session tapes for either "Sssshh" or "Watt",and so they've now resigned themselves to reissuing them with no bonus material.
The albums that still remain under Universal Music's control("Ten Years After","Undead" & "Stonedhenge") were the subject of definitive expanded remasters a few years back.Those remasters were Uk-only releases,available as imports.These remasters incorporate the non-L.P. singles & studio outtakes that comprised the "Alvin Lee & Company" album,though hang onto your CD of "Alvin Lee & Company" which has the stereo album versions.(the mono single mixes make their CD debut in the 3 UK expanded/remasters)

thanks for the info,

"rock and roll music to the world" and "recorded live" i do recall seeing at one time, however, i don't think i've even seen the last 70's album "positive vibrations".

Most (if not all) of the pre CBS albums have been expanded/remastered in the UK only.
