Albums that need reissues/deluxe versions

    Was talking to a friend recently and, among the craze of albums that have been reissued/remastered/re-released for certain anniversaries, there still seems to be a lot of missed opportunities. Some examples below:

    COLDPLAY - PARACHUTES - Ton of stray songs from their early ep's that could be included
    COLDPALY - A RUSH OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD - Hopefully they are putting together a packaget hat includes all the b-sides
    RHCP - CALIFORNICATION/BTW/STADIUM ARCADIUM - With John back, would be cool to re-issue/re-master with all the missing B-sides, could turn Stadium Arcadium into the originally intended triple-album
    AFI - SING THE SORROW - Definite candidate for re-mastering as the recording/volume quality of the original is really poor. Could also use a version that properly separates the b-sides and makes "This Time Imperfect" a proper track rather than a secret song.
    MCR - THREE CHEERS/BLACK PARADE - Both these could probably benefit from this treatment, a few scattered b-sides floating around
    RADIOHEAD - THE BENDS/HAIL TO THE THIEF/AMNESIAC- I know they just did a Kid Amnesia re-release but The Bends, Hail To Thief and Amnesiac were re-issued by Capitol with all their respective b-sides and are unfortunately not on streaming services.

    What else?
