OOF! I can't believe they are recycling the Deluxe Edition remixes. Terrible idea. They should have been new mixes but more similar to the originals like the Rock Band mixes. The DE mixes SUCK.
Oh, good. Glad to see the complaining has started.
I was afraid I would have to wait until the product ships.
The new version isn't listed on Amazon (U.S.) yet [oct 26], but some enterprising soul listed a bundle of the Red and Blue this year (probably around the time word was spreading R&B would be the fall release.)
I hope the buyers (it says 100+ purchases in the last month) won't be too disappointed when they learn of the new release.
The seller might get bit on the behind, though, because on Amazon they have to accept the return of any item for 30 days, regardless of the reason.
At least the buyers like what they heard: 100% 5 star reviews.
I'm hoping the new mixes will be more respectful to the originals but to simply recycle completely revisionist versions that sound little like the originals (and is now replacing them) is lazy and stupid.

Would you rather have a painting of an MBE by Stuart Sutcliffe because he really believe you were a mule
or would you rather have the one the Queen gave you while she yawned?
Peace, friend!

I´m a bit disapointed, I´ll confess. The whole package seems an excuse to release "Now and then" with some extra filling. I had hopes we´d get a more heterodox tracklist. But I give me the right to change perspectives when I hear the new mixes.
