[Heeplist] Remasters - The Official Anthology

[Bob Winward]

I agree with Igor that most remastered disks are just milking the past with
bonus tracks added.  However, the recording in question here is not a
remastered original disk, it is  a new recording of the Shaw Lanzon era Heep
in which they recorded classic Heep tracks, with Phil and Bernie and Trevor,
rather than David, Ken and Gary.  So I fyou want to hear Bernie singing
Sunrise, then this is a disk for you.  If you believe it is balsphemy, then
don't get it.  I just wanted to point out, it is not a remastered disk, it
is a new recording in 2001 of old material, not just typically remastered in
studio.

Cheers, Igor
