Alex doesn't add any unreleased material because this is released on Universal-island , his old label , obviously making more money as they own the publishing rights to the Orb's old material :), So Alex isn't going to complain too much either as It does make money for him, but you see a lot of record labels do this, just wait 3 or so more years and there will be about another 3 stone roses live albums by geffen :)) To be hoest the fact that Cydonia wasn't allowed to be released for at least 2 and a half years after completion, because of Islands so called Madonna release schedule years ago( or whichever rubbish they were releasing ) then really you shouldn't have bothered lining there pockets anymore. The way of the business, my collection doesn't have to include repeats, but it has been remastered , hmmm no stop it I don't need it. Just ordered Okie Dokie and Transit kings off amazon Japan , only £27 for both got to wait up to 4 weeks though, but having said that looking forward to owning them eventually with 3 extra tracks. Cheers, Vex.

yes...
I guess it is foolish... But since I have most of the rest of the orb - I had to buy this one as well... (Silly me... :O) )
And yes - I knew what was on it, so this is - or was no surprise
And I will off course listen to it as well... But I could just as well listen to the original... ;O)
But I was just thinking... All other bands that are releasing these "Deluxe editions" are including unreleased material... Why does Alex not do that?
And even though I am not that fond of the new stuff - I will keep on bying it... ;O)
Cheers

I don't find you comments offensive at all - but am curious....if you knew exactly what was included in the Deluxe Edition Ultraworld (since you are a REAL ORB COLLECTOR) why were you dense enough to buy it (or at least buy it and then complain about it afterwards....)
I bought it - loved it.
Will listen to it over and over (just like i did with the original Ultraworld, Aubrey's Ultraworld and the first Peel) once i stop listening to the Austin gig over and over (and all the time wondering when LX will release the Orb Live back catalog so I can throw more money his way - because (per Claus) I guess that is what Alex is counting on.)
Cheers!
Steve
"I am actually not very impressed...
The CD's are fantastic - as always with the orb... - at least the older 'the orb stuff'...
But there's nothing fantastic / Revolutionaly about it....
Every "REAL ORB COLLECTOR" have everything on these CD....
And yes... It might be Digitally remastered - but what the fuck...
I guess the orb is turning into a money machine as every other band that is starting t loose fame around the world..."
