| Gwen Guthrie disappointment |
|
Hello,
I just wanted to say that whilst I'm very happy that you have reissued the Good To Go Lover album, it feels like a missed opportunity to me.
No Larry Levan remix of Outside in the Rain, no Dancin' Danny D remix of Rent and no extended version of Close To You. Shame. |

| Hi Simon, While we are sorry you are disappointed, you must understand the difficulty and cost involved with getting extra tracks approved and/or securing the masters. We always try to get as much possible within reason and the time and cost restraints we have. We are pleased with the reissue as it stands |

Thanks for answering Michael, and I do appreciate the reissue companies will not always have access to everything that they or their customers want. I'm not sure that disappointment is the right word as I knew the track listing when I bought the cd. In light of what you say I'm not criticising soulmusic.com but providing feedback that can be used with Polydor (or whoever) in the future about how important full access is to your customers.
Going off on a tangent, the great UK journalist James Hamilton reported in Record Mirror in 1986, that the duettist on Save Your Love For Me was Fred Owen. Presumably that was never correct? |

| I'm very happy to see Gwen Guthrie's "Good To Go Lover" CD come to light. I fully understand just how difficult it must be to get the rights for the masters of certain remixes, etc. I don't see this as a missed opportunity whatsoever. Thank you SoulMusic.com for all that you do and keep up the great job. Once again thank you for reissuing Stephanie Mills' Cascablanca Lp's on Cd!! :) |

| Thanks for responding Micheal. I figured you guys were not able to receive clearance to include those remixes. It would have been nice but since some of those extended versions appear on her Best Of package, I really don't mind. :) |

Finally!! Save Your Love For Me on CD, is worth the price on it's own! as I have the original Polydor CD.
Thanks to all at soulmusic.com |
