Paul, please ask them to do similar box sets for 55th Anniversary of "Matthew & Son" and "New Masters"! That would be a dream come true. The Cat Stevens box-sets are top notch in my opinion.
The multitracks for Cat's DERAM recordings were not saved to begin with. A few years back, Universal offered a "remixed" "Matthew and Sons" , created by "De-mixing" technology (AKA "Digital Extraction" or "Spectral Remixing"), then they frustrated many fans by offering this remix only on vinyl.
Great video, top notch material and releases! One thing Paul, spatial audio is quite distracting on the video (at moments it moves around both channels) Maybe consider recording audio in stereo on your future videos.
Great video as always, I’ve still got my Original Vinyls I bought when they was released being an Oldie myself 😋 Can I just ask when will you be publishing the second book please?
For me the best quality package is the 2 CD Set it's the only one that comes with a quality hardback book much more superior in relation to how they packaged the other packages. Not only that the discs come stored inside the book and not in single cardboard sleeves. Thankfully I am glad they could not find the Multitrack Masters because being the Surround Freak! I am I would not be happy with the 4 CD Blu ray package and at £80 it's a joke. Chris Squire's Fish Out Of Water came in a similar package to the 4 CD Blu ray package and included 2 CD's, 2 DVD's an LP and 2 7" Singles and cost less than £80. So how on earth they have the gumption to charge you £80 for it is beyond belief. As for the Super Deluxe with the vinyl, they are honestly taking the PISS! By the way, thanks for showing this and I never knew they had been reissued. I shall deffo buy the 2 CD Package but as for the other packages I am sorry to say they are inferior and made on the cheap.
But the 2 disc lacks 2 more CD’s of content that this package has, and a BluRay video chock full of content. Do you buy these things just to get as much crap per pound or something? This has loads of crap for the price, and not bogged down with crap vinylz or Chris Squire.
I bought the first two Super Deluxe box sets and both now sell for just over half of the initial RRP and, disappointingly, the T&TFC Super Deluxe box set is much more expensive than the original RRP of the first two! I’m holding off, hoping the price drops in the same way but hope I don’t end up missing out.
If Cat's U.S.A. label "A&M Records" ever held those tapes,then the answer is "Yes". Quite a number of "A&M" artists multitracks were destroyed in the Universal City fire, amongst them The Carpenters & Rick Wakeman.
I expect Super Deluxe box sets for Catch Bull At Four next year ('72-2022), Buddha and the Chocolate Box super deluxe in 2024, Izitso 2027. Those would be great. Numbers and Foreigner would be great also, but those others I would really enjoy!

@@56dinosaur thanks for the info!

The Teaser And The Firecat book originally published in 1972 has been updated with alternate languages for the narration
Paul, love your videos, but the audio is very low on the last ones.
I am only interested in high quality audio. Is this a substantial improvement in sound quality over the 1999 cd I have now ?
What are the dimensions of the CD Superdeluxe outer box? Is this box identical in dimensions with Vinyl Superdeluxe edition or they are different?
Great video, very insightful. Do you think they will continue these sets for his other studio albums?
Next year is the 55th Anniversary of "Matthew & Son" and "New Masters". Fingers crossed!

Hi there. Love this channel, but the last few videos suffer from very low audio so it's been tricky for me to hear your smashing reviews.
We the master tapes destroyed in the UMG fire? Is that the reason per chance?
