Have people been keeping up with the fun and games on Linda T's FB page?
She's just leaked info (2 weeks before it was supposed to be announced) of a R< box set - 8 remastered albums plus loads of rare stuff. Put together by Andrew Batt.
Whoop, and indeed whoop.

Yes, rather frustrating I've found. Simply no info anywhere else about the box. Actually, I'm more likely to go for the vinyl reissues of R & LT albums, which were due months ago, and then the lock down happened. |

What the hell is this crazy website doing to R & L T?!! If you write it with no spaces it does the above. Odd. |

So maybe: Bright Lights Hokey Pokey Pour Down Like Silver First Light Sunnyvista Shout out The Lights plus a CD of live tracks (possibly In Concert '75) and one of radio sessions/outtakes (The Gerry Rafferty Shoot Out The Lights tracks?) ? |

Wow! Those have been reported as lost for years. I'm looking forward to hearing the full information when the official announcement comes out. |
