In the UK the Emusic d/l is the same price as the vinyl. I wouldn't mind so much but I already have the earlier set. I'm sure there are more prime 1960-1980 albums that could do with a proper re-issue without going over recently re-released material. Not that I don't like it but...

Oh! You really should re-consider - maybe even sell the Evidence set if you want. Read this and maybe you'll see why:
Pauline had always been nice to me whenever I saw her, but she was such a very stern woman - which is kind of unexpected when you think about the music she introduced to many generations of listeners.
A funny story: when I was a young man around 11 or 12, I had already owned her work, "I of IV" on the LP with Reich's "Come Out," but the piece that really made me kind of "fall in love" with her was a piece for flute, string bass, and percussion called "Outline." At my young age, I was dreaming of meeting this composer with the lovely name "Pauline" and had decided that she had to have been young and beautiful if she wrote such fantastic, creative music - ha! No, it didn't really make any sense ... and later finding out that her rather "manly" looks were part of her lesbian proclivities - ha - oh man, I was soooooo surprised - ha!
She left us with some wonderful music - and I suppose that's really another bright side of creativity - leaving memorable work for the ages and future generations to discover and enjoy.
Yeah, that is what I thought might be the case, thanks for the clarification.

Oh you know I'll buy the cd; in fact almost did just now but being in the mail order game I don't like over £9 shipping for a small digi-pack box posted from London to London. I still think that they over sell it's importance but taking the material from master tapes would have won me over. One of the lessons here is that I'd already read that review, but the first time it moved me not a jot; Sunday mornings are of course a different kettle of fish.
