It changes all the time for me - overall I think the 90s stuff is my favourite of this show

I have a friend that sold most of his collection 10 years ago and bought just FEL 6 LP box set and Celebration reissue so far - he plans to buy the expanded editions in the future

Exactly - let this thread die

It's not on hold or nullified - the focus is the tour obviously. The tour delay may have resulted in the adjustment of the release schedule however we are still getting streaming releases, vinyls (True Blue / Celebration) and it's likely we will see more after the tour - you'll also notice merch has also been exclusively for the tour. That's the focus.

That was all Carrese's idea and she was pushing M for a box set and talking about it publicly - it's likely M did not approve it rather than it being cancelled - a M box set in 2003 would not have been a sales failure

Oh dear it's all going so badly according to the last few posts of this thread lol She is on tour - that is the priority and the release campaign is fine

It's a very long and mostly well written book - you'll have to make allowances for some inaccuracies but overall it's entertaining and I really appreciated the author providing context of what was happening in the world at the time which highlights M's amazing legacy while also giving an idea on why there was so much controversy at the time etc I listened to the audio book in the car over a few months

Agreed

Is there any context to this random comment directed at me? I don't know who you are or what you're carrying on about etc

To be fair, if you have no idea about what has been released in the last 3 years under the deal, you probably aren't that interested in what will be released lol

No and I don't think they will

It's a very loose statement for them to claim 3 years of preparations

I love it but really prefer Rain

Hmmm "3 years" is 2021 - no
