Scans I'm looking for

[Eddy Wehbe]

Sorry Eddie, I got Jyrki's pm before I saw your reply but tbh I'd rather trade for cover versions than Bruce or even cash. Scans will be done tomorrow if I can find time. PM me your email addy.

If you are needing any other scans for cover versions let me know.

I would've done the same if I had to choose between selling and trading

Scans sent.

Received the scans. Tank you Jon.

Are these promos?

Yes, made for jukeboxes I believe rather than radio stations.

There is also a 10 track CD promo from the album thatcame in a whitecard sleeve with a B&W info sticker

But "for jukeboxe use" does not necessarily mean "promo". How were these distributed?

Distributed? God knows but I suspect they were sent out as a set. The "Right Stuff" label was some sort of EMI reissue label for mainly soul type stuff. They don't appear to have a website. Perhaps they were just a gimmick and sent out to certain pub/bar chains?

Makes most sense. Thank you Jon.

Can anyone tell me what's the difference between these two?

And does anyone here have it? If possible, I would like to have scans of the booklet (the credits parts). I need them for some work on Brucebase and on my website.

[Alessandro Cattaneo]

Actually i don't have a scanner.

The two cds are the same thing

Doesn't seems; they are not very detailed.....

I don't need scans this time, but I would like to confirm something. Has someone here bought The 25th Anniversary Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Concerts, all three audio versions? That is the 4-CD set for both nights, the 2-CD set for the first night, and the 2-CD set for the second night.

If so, could you please confirm that:

- the first two discs from the 4-CD set have 5 tracks not available on the 2-CD set for the first night

- the last two discs from the 4-CD set have exactly the same tracks as on the 2-CD set for the second night

Perhaps someone here can confirm some information for me in relation to the early 80's Gary US Bonds albums 'DEDICATION' and 'ON THE LINE'.

These two albums were re-released briefly in the early 1990's by US-based label 'Razor & Tie Records'. They were both straight re-releases (no bonus tracks). DEDICATION (Razor & Tie, RE-1986) and ON THE LINE (Razor & Tie, RE-1988).

I've never seen these two reissues to examine them but I've heard that both of them included album liner-sessionography notes written by none other than Gary US Bonds himself - these liner notes were not present on the original releases.

If anyone has these liner notes and can scan/transcribe them here - I'd appreciate it. If that's not possible then I'm looking for verification that in the ON THE LINE liner notes on the re-issue version Gary US Bonds mentions that he recorded three other Springsteen songs ("Lion's Den", "Savin Up" and "Action In The Street") at the 'ON THE LINE' sessions that were ultimately left off the album). Need confirmation that Bonds actually says this.

Can anyone help?

Hi.

Gary does indeed mention recording three extra tracks in the ON THE LINE liner notes but only reveals "Action In The Street" by name.

Here are two quick pics. If you need the complete artworks (6 pages each) I can scan them for you.

Cheers,

Polifka

I know that Springsteen shared vocals on JOLE BLON, but did he;

- Play guitar on "Jole Blon", "This Little Girl", "Your Love", and "Dedication"?

- Provide background vocals on "This Little Girl", "Your Love", and "Dedication"?

I just received the 4 CD version (thanks poshboss) and the bonus tracks according to the booklet on

the first two discs are :

Mexico : Crosby, Stills & Nash with James Taylor

Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard : Paul Simon

Mrs. Robinson / Not Fade Away : Simon & Garfunkel

Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours : Stevie Wonder

Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology) : Stevie Wonder with John Legend

London Calling : Bruce with Tom Morello

So actually there's 6 bonus tracks.

[Eddy Wehbe]

Thank you Jyrki. There were mistakes on the Amazon.com track lists, which caused confusion, but it seems that they now have made corrections.

Italian magazine Il Rock, issue $73, not only came with the Darkness On The Edge Of Town LP, but some copies also came with a cassette version of the album. Can someone please post a scan of the cassette tape? And how many pages is the magazine?

Ale, maybe you can help here.

I'm confused. Don't you own the cassette version (still sealed with the magazine) yourself, Eddy?

[Peter]

Anyhow, I'm pretty sure that the magazine is exactly the same as for the LP version - 17 pages in total.

You said it, "sealed"

And the cassette itself is also sealed in a blister pack.

But if someone here has a non-sealed copy, then I don't mind scans and info for record purposes. I also searched the web, but couldn't find any scan or photo of that release to use it as thumbnail on my website.

here's my copy:

17? Shouldn't it be 16? or 20, 24, 28...

All of this makes perfect sense of course.

...and of course I want to conform with entries like this on my website.

And you know how much information we discover by looking at tiny details. What was discussed on the High On The Shelf thread today is a perfect example.

[Peter]

I'm not near my collection right now, but I'll check my own copy of the "Il Rock" mag ASAP. Maybe, as you wrote, Ale can help out in the meantime.

Regarding the "High Up On The Shelf" thread: While I sincerely admire your constant striving for details and accuracy, I'm not going to participate in discussions about "small black rectangles at the six o'clock label position". Sorry, but I just can't. Not anymore.
