I'm waiting for a new version

I think I'm gonna go ahead and make my own CDR of this. Tired of waiting for a proper release.

yes, it seems we will never get the Archive Collection treatment....
Paul DuBay • 1 year ago
For some reason, Paul has it in his head that this is a failed LP. An awful thing to say about my favorite solo release from his post-Fab career. He has released several of his solo LPs in archive format with more on the way, but it does not look like we will see the release of BTTE in his lifetime and possibly ours. Oh well. Smile away!

Sharing the same feelings as you, Paul... BTTE is also one of my - if not - my favorite of his 70s period.

I thought for sure we'd finally get BTTE in 2023 as some of the tracks were remastered in 2022 for the 7" singles box. Frustrated, it's a great album.
