Here is some news I got from Jeff about his forth coming album re-launch this summer of his international award winning album Jeff Wayne's Musical Version Of The War Of The Worlds of what the long awaited 'Collectors Edition' set(s) will include.<br /><br />1. CD's 1+2 - SA-CD - these are 2 CD's each containing two files. One <br />file is a brand new stereo remix built up from the original multi <br />tracks, transferred into the digital domain - sound by sound, track by <br />track and then ENTIRELY remixed. If you only have a stereo system it <br />will select the stereo mix. It is a major step up in sound quality than <br />the current stereo version.<br /><br />The second file is the 5.1 Surround Sound mix (not some 'enhanced' <br />version which a lot of record companies actually do and then sell it as <br />a surround sound remix. Ours, like the stereo, is a true and totally <br />new remix including ingredients never heard before.<br /><br />That is why Sony Hardware have backed TWOTW 5.1 remix so they can use <br />it as a true demonstration of what the limits of this technology can <br />produce and will promote it as such. The listener is truly 'in' the <br />sound.<br /><br />Anyone with a surround sound system will have that system select the <br />5.1 file rather than the stereo.<br /><br />The new new remixes represent work started early last summer and will <br />be completed within the next month.<br /><br />2. CD 3- The Remixes 1979-2005 - these represent the best of what has <br />been remixed through the years, some being hits, others just being <br />excellent renditions of different DJ/Remixers slants on my compositions <br />with samples and my original scores having been provided to them.<br /><br />There are also a couple of new remixes never before heard.<br /><br />3. CDs 4-6 - Contain rarities, out-takes, 'special' studio mixes of <br />musical content never before heard, and half of CD 6 being the entire <br />Richard Burton and other actors recorded unabridged script, much of <br />which has also never been heard before.<br /><br />4. 1 DVD - which does recount the history of the making of the <br />recording, visual clips of rare video footage, and a host of other <br />items you would expect on a DVD of this sort along with additional <br />clips from the development of our CGI film not yet seen by anyone. It <br />is also hoping to be used in a different edited form as the base for a <br />tv documentary.<br /><br />5. The booklet is also stunning and now up to 80 pages. It all comes <br />bound and is the size of a black vinyl disc.<br /><br />More news can be found over at: <a href='http://robk.proboards13.com/index.cgi?board=musical&action=display&num=1110282448' target='_blank'>http://robk.proboards13.com/index.cgi?boar...&num=1110282448</a> <br /><br />Also coming soon, there will be a huge range of The War Of The Worlds goodies, some 250+ at present, to satisfy all fans and collectors. You can find out more by going to his site at: <a href='http://www.thewaroftheworlds.com/' target='_blank'>http://www.thewaroftheworlds.com/</a> - so make a note of it.<br /><br />With much thanks to Jeff Wayne for the above information<br /><br />H_C

It's going to be a fantastic package. good old Jeff. 80 page booklet sounds great. <br />I reckon that there will be more art, because more art was created for the PC and PSONE games. <br /> Is David Essex involved in the CGI project Horsell?


Bah bah black sheap April diamond spheres, Rigsby, Rigsby, Eight sided Pears.

Im not sure if you will see any artwork in the booklet about the PC/PS1 games, 'some' of the guys from the original album have been invovled with the SACD version, but thats all I can say.<br /><br />H_C

That's what I want, new art by the old painters.<br /><br />I've seen pencil drawings of an actual martian before now. Might have been in the game booklet?
