The remastered cd's are being released on Rhino Records, if Amazon is to be believed.Rhino Records have a section called Handmade where they do low production runs on obscure material (about 5000 copies).They also have a suggestion box
here .
I've suggested a box set with the 3 remastered cd's (to save them money) all the previously unavailable on cd tracks (Afterhours etc) and a DVD with the Old Grey Whistle Test performances etc.
They obviously want to make something they can sell and make a profit. If you don't ask you don't get...

How about an
un-remastered CD of FALAA, I've got (somewhere
) a tape I bought in '86, it's
waaaaaay better than the remastered CD.

I was just wondering.. Is the same company as Red Rhino records that distributed the Sisters singles in the US in the 80's?

Red Rhino were a small york-based record shop/record label with a small distibution arm.
http://www.discogs.com/label/Red+Rhino+Records
Early 80s UK indie label, now defunct. Had a Belgian division, Red Rhino Europe, that was distributed by Play It Again Sam (PIAS).
i doubt they're related

This could have been the beginning of the NWOBGR...New Wave Of British Gothic Rock... with re-releases of all that good stuff by Red Lorry Yellow lorry, Skeletal Family, March Violets etc etc.. One can only dream..

Rhino seem to do really good jobs on the re-mastering front from the few that I've picked up in the past (Husker Du & the Replacements springing to mind).
I vaguely know one of the guys who works in the re-issues section of Sanctuary records, who's told me that at times their "re-master" jobs involve nothing more than turning up the master tapes when they press the CDs (something like that anyway). Hopefully this won't be the case here, but seeing as I own none of the B-sides, guess I can't really lose. I was looking at picking them up on vinyl only the other week, yet don't currently have a record player, so this couldn't come at a better time.
Ideally, as someone else mentioned, we'd get a re-issue series similar to the ones the Cure (and the Banshees?) are currently undertaking. But they seem to be a labour of love from someone at the record company. Unlikely with these, sadly.

I don't think Rhino & Red Rhino are related either. Anyway Pias Belgium does not distribute Rhino records.
Sadly enough..., otherwise it would be very easy for me the get promo's & stuff.

Rhino is a reissue-label in the first place. With lots of old goff bands on the road again like Bauhaus, Sisters, Fields (or so some of us hoped) and with succes, it isn't that surprising Rhino go that way.

If it was a "new wave", by definition it would not be limited to rereleases.
And we all know what some
cuntspeople think about new goth bands.
