 A suggestion has been put forward to show Rhino Records that there are users out there who are willing to purchase Blue Afternoon and Starsailor. We suggest that instead of requesting copies of these Recordings on forums, that everyone emails Rhino directly at drrhino@rhino.com to voice your request for a re-release to be made. With the "Works in Progress" album, Rhino made 7500 copies, of which I am a proud owner of one of those copies. So I would imagine that Rhino would consider doing a run of both Starsailor and Blue Afternoon (possibly in a set) if there was enough interest shown, so please email them, and tell every genuinely interested Tim Buckley listener to also email them. Another possibility could be asking them, what a minimum run they require to make some copies and then we place a bulk buy order. I am a member of another user group that uses this method to buy electronics at wholesale prices where they would normally not even be able to obtain those parts. Obviously, our site here does not attract enough users to generate the bulk buy scenario but maybe if the numerous Tim Buckley groups like "Tim Buckley and Friends", "Starsailor" etc grouped together, we might be able to get a large enough group buy to encourage Rhino to run a batch of them. If you have other suggestions, please email them to me using the contact us link
