Dear all,
The Fishheads project, as I said in the previous post,is a massive one. Calum Malcolm will be mixing the multi track recordings and mastering the other high bit rate stereo recordings and the DVD soundtracks. A meeting with Rob Ayling from my distributors has thrown up quite a few ideas we are costing out so we can deliver something very classy and collect able that is high quality at a price that is affordable over a range of options and that also covers the heavy front costs I have which include session fees, production fees, artwork and design origination and obviously manufacturing costs of the material.I am examining a box set which may include the following- 6 multi track audio full show, double cd’s from St Mary’s 2010, Manchester Band on the Wall 2010,studio sessions 2011, “another ” 2011 tbr, A Polish “best of” and a “best of” high bit ratio stereo album from various sources.This would come together with 2 DVD’s , one filmed in the studio and the other from the potential “Planet Rock” show or a “Polish” show.This box set would include a full colour large 20-30 page booklet and other mementos of the tour.
This would be a high price unit of between 85 and 100 pounds depending on costs.
There would also be a quadruple album compiled as a “best of” from the above at around
