Well, my guess is that Warner & Rhino are testing the market. I would not be surprised to see Kiln House, Future Games and Bare Trees reissued on CD, but I do think it depends on sales of Then Play On...and the vinyl box set.
Then again, I would not be surprised to see Warner drop the ball and walk away from the project.
Warner Japan, like Warner in Europe, operates independently of the U.S. company, and they tend to be prolific with reissues.
Ultimately, I do hope the Warner catalog is all reissued up to 1974.
