Thanks David, sounds great. Did they really remaster the original tapes? Or is it a digital transfer of the cd source files? I've always believed the originals got lost.
cheers,

I don't know, I would imagine the latter.

Doesn't matter.....I intend to pick up all three!!!

I would buy all of them, but... since I'm from Brazil I guess it won't be released here any time soon!

It reads,
Japanese Limited Edition Issue of the Album Classic in a Deluxe, Miniaturized LP Sleeve Replica of the Original Vinyl Album Artwork.
It doesn't look like remaster but is with replica LP sleeve. -
Thanks David, for the info. How did you find it?
I wonder why now and in Japan, even though Glenn has not been here for three years and no tour is planned for the near future, either???? -
From one of the many mailing lists I subscribe too Ko. Don't think this is specific to GLENN, but more of a general re-issue targeted at the Japanese market. So there's nothing to read into it!! Although don't discount a visit to Japan in the near future

Ditto!!.....Any Trapeze Re-masters have my vote

Just bought a 'promo' boxset of the three on ebay for $84.99 + $15.32 for shipping......it's expensive but......it's TRAPEZE!!!

Be sure and let us know how it sounds when you get it!

Below is a photo of the Trapeze mini-LP CD promo set I'm waiting to arrive. I certainly hope this isn't some kind of 'pirate' release!

The Trapeze Japanese mini-LP CD set arrived Friday and I got around to playing them Xmas Eve. I have German issues of the first three albums but this set is a vast improvement in the sound. The music jumps out of the speakers no doubt due to the 24-bit remastering. Each mini-LP sleeve is exactly like the original album! Looks like I won't be playing the German issues anymore!! I'm 100% satisfied with this product!

Damn. Now you've got me wanting a set

Sorry...I just saw your message this morning. I purchased my set from a seller in Japan who had a very good feedback rating. His user id is ftfym65 (I think his name is yuji). His email addy is yuji65@pb4.so-net.ne.jp I hope that's your guy. He was very prompt with shipment. I think shipping cost me about $15.00. One of the only drawbacks when it comes to ordering from Japan. Good luck and let me know what you think of it when it arrives! cheers, Chuck

Sorry David, but do you think we'll have a Trapeze Album with lyrics in the sleeves someday? I'm waiting for those lyrics for long long long time. Since 1972 when I bought my first Trapeze Album.

Perhaps wolfysmith can borrow the lyrics from Tom or Mel sometime? Tom was going to pass them along for transcription a while back, but never got around to it unfortunately.
Or perhaps chutsler can answer as to whether this Japanese box-set contains the full set of lyrics?
