That is a good idea. You could use a site like bandcamp or soundawesome or both to sell the digital versions. I would recommend bandcamp. As for what tracks, that is a really hard thing to say but some suggestions might be:

Evan's Playtime Song from Mysterious Black Dots

Too Funky in Heah! from Astro-politics (also on Radio special Vol 3)

Ping Pong from Celestial dance Hits

I will have to look through the collection…

 

 
Hello, all and sundry!
 

 
I'm listening at this instant to "Love Shack Radio" from AP's "Life On
Earth" (and you can hear this and other spacey stuff on
http://radio.swirly.com)
 

 
I'm taking the next year to make a lot of limited edition CDs of old
projects of mine, and of projects I've been involved in. Since I'm making
these on a one-by-one basis, I can make as many or few as I (and my
assistant) have time for.
 

 

 
I thought of putting out a "semi-authorized" "Best of Alien Planetscapes"
CD, sending the family some money in advance against royalties, and then if
we actually sell enough to make royalties, making sure they all go to Doug's
estate.
 

 

 
As for the ethics, it's clearly advantageous to Doug's memory, it's good for
me to sell these CDs at cost simply because it makes my catalog more
exciting, and it's good for the public to get this material.
 

 
The people who would get slightly shafted are the various performers and
production on the recordings, all of whose share would go to Doug's estate -
simply because of logistics. However, my feeling is that these shares would
be small, and it would be better for a few hundreds to go to Doug's son than
a few tens to go to a dozen people... and you can always hit me up for a
Free Beer (or beverage/foodstuff of your choice).
 
 

 
What do you think?
 

 
And what's a good selection? My theory is to have two discs of about 60
minutes each, and then perhaps a "bonus online track" which might be a long
show in its entirety, online. It'd be great to showcase the various periods
of AP's history.
