And in case there is anyone reading who has an influence in whether this gets released, I'd say this.
I often end up in conversation with people about The Smiths. In those conversations it's struck me that The Smiths are a band you don't fall out of love with. Of course, anyone who likes the band bought their six albums many years ago and however they're packaged, few fall for the same albums re-released. Conversely, when I tell them I have a trumpet version of Frankly, Mr Shankly, a wonderfully warm version of Please, Please, Please from an LA amphitheatre or a copy of the scrapped first album then they're begging me for a copy.
The Smiths remain an evergreen at Warners, I'm sure. I think if you timed and marketed a 'legacy' release correctly then you would see not only great sales of the reissue itself but a resurgence in the Smiths catalogue overall.
TL;DR, shut up and take my money.
