Ahh, okay, thanks. That makes sense as to what I can see for sale on Amazon. The later ones being remix/re-edits.

Thanks for the news! Here's a brief archived-from-print-only review of her '06 Best Off (sorry for "ish," but at least it hadn't been so over-used back then, had it?)

disco version of Arthur Brown's "Fire," punk-funky take on Mission Impossible, rewrite of "Fever" and more. I kinda like Press Color

Are the ZE reissues from ten years back out of print now?

Michael F Gill, Tuesday, 29 September 2015 00:08 (eight years ago) link

Sadly, yes. You can still get Mutant Disco Vols 1-4 (the 2011 reissues) though.

Michael F Gill, Sunday, 3 December 2023 04:33 (four months ago) link

ok lol it was posted there in 2018 and I replied to it back then.

I still find the exuberant spirit of lizzy (especially on mambo Nassau) tremendous and overwhelmingly contagious
