Roxy Music - Avalon (SDE Blu-Ray #36, May 9th, 2025)

[Steve Bruzonsky]

I bet #37 is another early 80s Roxy music title! It’s so much easier for Paul to determine who gets how much money from a two set what it’s the same artist

except @PaulatSDE specifically said it's a MID 80s title. Roxy did not have any albums in the mid 80s.
Could be a Ferry solo record like "Boys & Girls"

Unless... There's a hidden album...

Hmmm... How many years each side of 1985 is considered "mid 80's"?

‘83-‘87?

 

[HenkG]

‘83-‘87?

For sure there is a lot what you can imagine from that period. And for sure it will not be Bryan Ferry again or even Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel, David Sylvian, Talk Talk, Blue Nile etc.

Based on the given information, the mystery Blu-ray cannot be Welcome to the Pleasuredome. Paul has stated that this release will come in an Amaray case and be priced at £24.99. Welcome to the Pleasuredome is a BMG release, and Paul has previously said that BMG releases do not come in Amaray cases. Furthermore, they are also £5 more expensive (£29.99).

The Frankie catalogue is now with Universal. No longer BMG.

A big wish would be this one. But it is not from the 80s......

 

[Letichou]

but these two are and i would be glad to get the first and the second as an unknown release!

I had to look him up, I still have no idea who he is.

Hi Gos! who he was. he died in 2009. This is a very good songwriter and guitarist from the UK.
If you have have the opportunity give a ear to this live album with David Gilmour.
I'm sure that you will like it.

I've ordered the bundle with the mystery #37, but I'm not as optimistic as some! I'm thinking that, if it was a really good album that we all wanted, then SDE would surely have announced what #37 was in order to increase their sales. The fact that it's not announced makes me think that it will be an album that wouldn't necessarily sell well by itself. But here's hoping, its only money!

For the purposes of the usual rabid speculation and complete fantasy, I'd say from 1968 - 2027!

I'm still tempted by the thought of Pleasuredome - a perfect fit for SDE.

I think that a more likely scenario is that SDE isn't allowed to announce the title until a date that is approved by the label. These days labels have entire marketing campaigns mapped out. A premature announcement would disrupt that. Kind of silly, but the labels do seem to think in those terms.

That makes sense. Yes - 90125 it is then!

Or -- it is something wildly popular in short supply, so that early adopters are the only ones that aren't kicking themselves!

We can dream. . . .

I was thinking more 84 to 86...

 

[MrSmithers]

Did Paul just drop a massive hint????

That seems like a pretty good hint to me... Knowing that Steven Wilson has done an Atmos mix means it's due to come out sometime...

Maybe. That's just what has been said in the past, things can change.

The Frankie catalogue is now with Universal. No longer BMG.

Great!!! I prefer an Amaray case and a price that's £5 cheaper.

 

[kenm]

Just curious since I don't have a wed access streaming Dolby Atmos set up, did Tony Visconti, David Bowie's producer, ever do a surround mix for Aladdin Sane or any other Bowie albums beside the Ziggy album. I just have an old 5.1 of Young Americans.
