Thread Name: Bright Phoebus reissued/Radio Documentary
Subject: RE: Bright Phoebus reissued
Hey all, I'm completely new to this forum. Just wanted to say I've tried reaching out to Celtic Music several times within the last year and a half with absolutely no response.

What's worse, I live in the US, and Bright Phoebus is even more of an obscure release here than it is in the UK.

If anyone has any knowledge of the "extended" Domino CD or vinyl release (that is, the version which came with the demos!) which might be for sale, please know that I would pay a pretty penny for it. If you could reach out to me at aforziati11@hotmail.com if you know anything, I'd be much obliged.

Honestly, I'm very upset with this mysterious Celtic Music label for two reasons: one, by not reissuing this album, they're essentially letting the album slide into the annals of forgotten music history, unlike Domino, which did well to bring the tracks to digital mediums (which is how I discovered the album in the first place, and I'm so thankful I did).

Two, the axing of the Domino release also caused us to lose access to the amazing demos, some of which became my new favorite versions of the songs. It's really a loss for both fans and music history in general. I hope CM puts some effort into this at some point.
