So what do you all make of the new liner notes by Hamish McBain?
(assuming he wrote all of them)
I only have BHN, TMP, and DBTT as those were the ones I didnt have originals of. But when I put on BHN and read those liner notes, over and over, man it was like poetry! the good kind, that is. I've never read such an eloquent and articulate review of BHN and what those days were like in summer of 1997. Tremendous work. Enjoyed the Masterplan one too (though I dont knwo why he referred to Underneath the Sky as "psychedelic"!) and DBTT is still sealed for now.
Also, does anyone know where I could read the other albums' new liner notes? Are they posted online somewhere? I think they're amazing and dont want to /can't afford to re-purchase the albums I already have just for one page of liner notes, even if that page is 12 inches by 12 inches.

BTW, it seems the boxes are now in stock on the US/Canada store page. Does anyone know if these are US pressings or just imports from the UK.

hey, sorry to dig up an old thread..i'm new to vinyl (and huge oasis fan) and trying to figure out if i should buy the re-issues or the original vinyl..
does anyone have both? do they sound the same or do the original pressings sound better? just wanna listen not collect...worried the re-issues are from digital masters..heard the masterplan re-issue and it didnt sound that great, but maybe that was the system i heard it on..any help would be great!

I have original and reissues for all the albums. The reissues are on really heavy vinyl and are super quiet. I haven't noticed much difference sound wise.
