From the Both Sides Now Stereo Chat:
Sundazed is currently remastering the mono LP of "If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears," on vinyl only, as announced on their Facebook page. In response to a poster commenting that he thought the mono master was long gone, they replied:
"The master tape is NOT long gone... This was recently recovered from a U.K. vault... and we have first crack at it. Say 'hooray'..."
Hopefully someone will issue this on CD...
This makes me wonder whether the individual albums could be rereleased with another disc of additional bonus material. I'm no expert on what's rumored to be in the Dunhill vault but maybe they have enough material to flesh things out. There's always the Complete Anthology from 2004 that had a lot of unreleased material, but who knows.
