Hey Dina,

Unfortunately The Dance reissue is currently in the works and has not
been released.

Is this list of "essentials" or a list of essential artists whose
albums are available on CD or digitally?

I personally see no qualms with putting artists whose works have yet
to be reissued. But I can understand why you might want to leave them
off.

Best,

Aaron Levin
