I'm probably reading far to much into this but latest comments from Guy don't look negative on the prospect of old material being released . He refers to Dolby Atmos mixes which must be for the MFN comp?
How he can be negative when it's a part of his job to "look after" his own work? Artists who say they look forward only and they never look back are just snobbish and childish people who want to look cooler in the eyes of the audience. Of course, you look forward only, because that's your job.
There are artists who milk their past works for what it's worth, but when you're OBVIOUSLY an artist who's consistent in releasing new material and rarely really looks back, it's... Well... That you don't look back, it's obvious, for one thing, and cheapens your past works a little bit.
I always read it like "don't waste your time checking out my past works, see what I've got right now". In any way, this phrase about looking forward is so stupid.
