[reply][reply]“The Expanded Mind” - album, b-sdies, remixes and DVD.
Are there any known b-sides from that period?[/reply]
Just their version of Smothered Hope, that’s all I can think of.
They also released a short version of “So What” on Flexi Disc for Reflex Magazine.[/reply]
And those 12" versions of “Burning Inside” and “Thieves,” neither of which I really care to have remastered. As long as we got a good remastering job on the original album, and maybe expand ICYDFLSU to include the full set, that’s good enough for me.

Fuck that…got most of it already although for those of you with $$ to burn, fuck yeah! This is a more than exceptional collection…an absolute treasure really.
I am really hoping they have some early copies of this available at the Without Sympathy event, because I’d rather contend with a bunch of Ministry fans than stand in line behind a massive number of record nerds and (far, far worse!) record speculators on Record Store Day…which takes place the very next day. I don’t think I’ll be out and about for that.
Yeah, RSD is getting a bit ridiculous. I’m only going out for this release. The record store I shop at wasn’t going to order it originally, since it’s mainly a CD box set, but they ordered one for me.
He’s not allowed to hold it, but he’s going to keep it in a not so obvious spot, then show me where it’s at when I get there.
How did they know to get ahold of you?[/reply]
I ask again ^
Are you friends with Cleo people? Did they just surf into the Ministry board looking for ministry stuff and Find you? Did Al point them in your direction?
Last page of the Book you are thanked which is hella cool!
Did they give you a box for contributing some Files? were you “compensated” or was it just kindness on your part that you participated with the project?
They posted something on the Ministry Facebook quite a while ago about looking for Ministry stuff from the early years. I replied, not knowing what was up, but happy to contribute. I sent them what I have and some thoughts on a few things and connected them up with a few other people who were actually around back then. I haven’t really been in the loop on what they’ve been releasing, but I get solid info when I ask what’s up.
Supposedly they’re hooking me up with a copy, but I haven’t seen it yet. Wasn’t something I asked for, but something they offered, which I thought was really kind to do. If it never shows, I’ll probably just buy one. Looks like it’s really well produced. Which is what Athan said they were going for. Really nice to see this attention to quality. Complete 180 from the Cleo of the mid-90’s. I’d love to see more in this vein.

That’s really awesome. I hope they come through for ya’. The box is really quite nice. A little heavy towards the Ministry era I’m not a super fan of but like you pointed out, it’s well produced and really just a nice piece to have in the collection. Plus, there’s something in there for everyone, especially since I am a superfan of all of the side projects of that era.
I forgot my old login for my fake account about this…
Listen, I know Cleopatra said limited edition of 2000, and when I was bitching at them about my replacement CD I asked why they didn’t number it anywhere.
