I really found this interesting, some good insight. They also seem to have been told the fans are not happy with the content!

Cheers,
Kamran

Jim read the comments. He gave a very thinly-veiled reason for not including any extra material, as he has gone on record as saying that music is written to be heard. 

Reading between the lines, his comments also suggest that he and Charlie were involved as well, and not just UMG.

All the best,

Clive

Clive, did you post comments on Facebook?

I don't use it, so not sure where the extra conversations happened!

Thanks,
Kamran

No. I was blocked about ten years ago

Whilst I did whinge on another thread about the lack of demos, unreleased tracks etc, the interview also suggests that J & C are not averse to revisiting ideas they may have had 15/20/30 years ago, for future ideas.

Before anyone has a go at them for running out of steam, they won't be the first to revisit past ideas (the Beatles definitely did this, for example) & certainly won't be the last.

It is however, inexcusable that the full Verona gig wasn't included.
