On this date in 2010, the album, Seven and the Ragged Tiger, was remastered in various formats in the US. For many fans, this was a chance to buy a copy with much better quality than what they previously. For example, I had the album on CD and it was placed on CD long after it had been released. Thus, the quality was not what I hope for, especially when it comes to Duran Duran. What else was cool about these remastered editions is the extras that came with like remixes, b-sides and single versions. It also included a DVD of As the Lights Go Down (concert film), the videos and performances on Top of the Pops. For example, here is the track listing:
| 1. The Reflex |

And As the Lights Go Down was FINALLY available on a DVD that was not some bootleg that might not play in all regions. For that reason and because it is STILL not released properly as a stand alone DVD, this clamshell box set sells for obscene amounts! SO glad I got mine when I did! I wish they would have corrected the dates for the tracks recorded in LA, rather than use the old incorrect info that was on the original releases.
