For the last ten minutes or so... in which the reissue of major label back catalogue (Atlantic) by two plucky British independents is enough of a notable event to be, er, noted and commented upon (by Tony Blackburn, Morrissey, George Michael)
83-84, from memory, does strike me as when reissue culture went into overdrive.... from being an irregular occurrence to a steady flow

Great on so many levels.
Good to see Tony Blackburn flying his modernist flag high and arguing that contemporary soul is much better than the Edsel / Charly revivals.
And interesting to see what great taste George Michael has, loving Side Two of Closer and I Say A Little Prayer. Explains a lot about his subsequent career.
I was surprised how like able all three were!
