We all know we a few already out on Cd Let's hope this is, and will be the best off, all the singles the way they 1st came out along with all the B sides. Mybe the new best off will have one ot two new songs on it. Not say no to that

Saw that mention on the official site 'twitter' feed but I'd just assumed it was a reference to likely set list. Hadn't considered it as a possible (re)issue of a greatest hits package.

Agree though it would need to be sufficently different to previous, and singles as issued plus b-sides would be a very good variation. Too many good album tracks to fit in though. Joey is probably more familiar to the casual fan than A Hold Of Me for a start. Maybe the singles, b-sides and 'live' highlights from this tour would be the ideal from a novelty perspective.

Would be disappointed if 'Ratrospective' was the title though, not because it's poor, just because it's recycled.

There must be a more imaginative title surely? Maybe this is the opportunity for The Fine Art of Resurfacing. Or that 'Trapped' compilation title that never saw light of day.

Rebound for Glory maybe?

 I'd probably buy it regardless.  Though quite honestly, I see no reason for it at all.  Weirdly, I dreamt of buying a vinyl double LP of Rats hits last night before I read the tweet.

 I hope there is a vinyl release.  Would be too late for record store day 2013,  but  I would definitely get a vinyl LP or single.

 Yes, sorry I confused you by talking about it on the wrong thread. Had an email about it, did you get one?
