- The reissue of Numbers With Wings and Beat Hotel doesn't necessarily
- portend any additional reissues. NWW and BH were both issued by RCA
- (with whom Razor and Tie made a licensing agreement). Nuts and Bolts
- was issued through the now-defunct Jem Records. I believe the same
- applies to Drums Along the Hudson, though I'd have to check to be sure.
- At any rate, completely separate licensing arrangements would have to
- be worked out for this material. And from what I hear, most of the
- material controlled by Jem is still entangled by a myriad of lawsuits.
