最初のセットに較べると、こちらは特に初登場テイクがなさそうで、地味な印象です。とはいえ、California Brainstorm など(おそらく)今回の再発予定にない Live Chronicles、Xenon Codex、Space Bandits、Palace Springs、Electric Tepee、It Is The Business、 Business Trip、White Zone からも選曲されています。
2009年1月30日追加>>上記 ELECTRIC TEPEE、LIVE CHRONICLES などすでにリリースされましたので、発売予定アルバムはかなりの種類に及びそうです。
ブックレットには、ホークス本を書いたイアン・エイブラハムズが寄稿しているとのこと。
またアルバム群の再発スケジュールは 来年2009年早々から開始されるとのことです。
このセット、その後の再発アルバム、管理人は購入することになりますが、ひさびさの月刊ホークウインドになることは必至です(汗
