FleetwoodMac's "Then Play On" ; Best remaster??

I recntly have rediscovered Fleetwood Mac through the album "Tusk" which seems to capture some the magic of the earlier Mac albums, like Future Games and Bare Trees.

I have read that the title called: "Then Play On" is also excellent, but the 1990 remaster by Warner Bros, blows

Anyone know if there is a high quality CD or even LP remaster of this title?? Thank you

i can't speak to recording quality (my recollection is that it was an average 60's production), but "then play on" is arguably the best ever brit blues album; a standard that cream, savoy brown, etc. could only dream about. "o well" and "rattlesnake shake" are well-revered classics, but if you dig deep, there's some really brilliant tracks--"closing my eyes" is one of the greatest you've never heard.
agree 100% with onhwy on danny kirwan--fantastic player and songwriter; check out his stuff on "bare trees" and "future games;" though he apparently disappeared thereafter.
