The Jam "Town Called Malice" UK 12" single - why isn't this
I would love to know why Polydor hasn't released the UK 12" of "Town Called Malice" on CD yet. After all these years, you think it would have been released by now....I thought for sure it would have been included in the box set. As far as I know, this U.K. 12" release isn't available anywhere on CD. I have been wanting to hear this live version of "Town Called Malice" and the extended version of "Precious" for years!

Also, there's 2 different versions of "War" the Jam recorded. One version is from the "Beat Surrender" single produced by Pete Wilson. But there's also another version from the US 12" EP of "The Bitterest Pill" which is produced by Tony Taverner. This version is the one that is not available on CD. This is the version I'm looking for. I would love to know if anyone has any information regarding this version.....is it on CD anywhere?

Are you a Maido or Maiden Fan?
An average weekend for buying and I found another copy of the rare Dylan Biography box set with obi [click here to add your name to my waiting list].  It was very confortable for me to have a dinner with chair at Maido restaurant (historicary you can only stand).The number of the customer then was 4 times bigger (busier) than the terms they had no chair. The price (Beer / Meals) was same so they just changed to the "Better" restaurant.  This is a really important change for all Maido fans [if you are a Maiden fan instead then you should check this really great tour programme with Hiroshima ticket stubb!].

The Bealtles - Within You Without You Japanese Promotional O
Hello from Japanese Office

I have been asked if I have a willingness to buy a copy of "The Bealtles - Within You Without You / Tomorrow Never Knows Japanese Promotional Only CD Single" from my contacts.

I am still thinking if I should accept this offer or not as it is not a cheap deal.
My supplier says that it is mega rare and never been sold / auctioned at Japanese site so far.The reason why it is so rare is :

1) Toshiba EMI (Jap record label) didn't press this CD very much as it was indicated that the lead track from "Love" album for air-playing should be "Strawberry Fields Forever" from EMI UK and this CD was not used for air-playing (instead,4 track sampler from Love album [UK pressing] was imported and sent to several radio stations in Japan.Toshiba has only given this CD to seriously sellected DJ & journalists that's why it has not been sold / auctioned so far.

2) It is the only CD single from "Love" album all around the world so far (as far as I know.....I think EMI UK doesn't even know this existence and will not be happy if they know this)

The sleeve artwork is same as Love album (yellow coloured one) and titled "Within You Without You / Tomorrow Never Knows".The back of foresleeve is informed the release of Love album with track listings in Japanese.This is factory pressed CD and catalogue number is PCD-3275.

I just wondered if anyone in this community is interested in buying this item if eil.com stocks this item for sale - I expect our price will be 450 - 595UKP.

Please give me your feedback and it will be greatly helped my decision.

Thank you very much in advance

Get Your Queen Sales Awards Here!

Over the last week I have been continuing the mammoth task of pricing and sorting a collection of 900 LPs from the 70's and 80's (plus a few gems from the 60's). This was more important than being out on the road so much as I was almost boxed in to my desk area! The task is now complete and I return to business as usual, covering hundreds of miles in search of the single item you've been longing for (whatever it may be). This week I have a few nice items to pick up including 2 very nice elaborate Queen awards and I've been promised a few surprises which sounds intriguing.

marvellous MUTE box coming soon

We are proud to announce the release of 'Mute Audio Documents', a Deluxe Limited Edition Box Set on 26th March 2007.

With 128 tracks over 10 CDs, 'Mute Audio Documents' is a unique insight into the musical development of the label and its artists, highlighting the influence, the success and, most importantly, the great music produced since its inception in 1978.

This box set is a collection of Mute’s single releases from 1978 to 1984 and includes the first 4 double CD volumes of an ongoing series plus a 2CD rarities album exclusive to the box set. The series will feature all the A-side and B-side single tracks released by Mute in addition to album tracks by the artists for whom there were only album releases.

Mute emerged in the post-punk era. It was a new era of pop democracy, and anyone could make a record. You didn’t even need to know three chords, according to Mute founder Daniel Miller. All you needed, he said, was an idea. His ‘idea’ was to create a classic of DIY pop – a double A sided 7” single featuring the songs T.V.O.D. and Warm Leatherette. He called himself The Normal, designed a sleeve with Letraset, stuck the name Mute on it, and accidentally started a record label.

You only have to listen to the music gathered on these 10 CDs to see how Mute became the blueprint for maverick independence and sonic adventurousness – a blueprint that countless labels follow to this day. The documentary evidence is here. All you have to do is listen.

The exclusive 2CD rarities album, which features recordings by The Normal and Robert Rental, Depeche Mode, Fad Gadget and Yazoo plus John Peel and David Jensen session tracks from Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds and Yazoo, will only be available as part of the 'Mute Audio Documents' box set which also includes exclusive sleeve notes by Chris Bohn, Step...

Great Italian female singers
Milva is an artist of the time of my parents. She is considered to be one of the greatest of the Italian song, together with Mina & Iva Zannichi.
We had , in my childhood, cassettes of international singers, and among them, we would to have one of Miva, sung in Spanish.
Of the singers, if they were Italian, we preferred the songs to be sung in Spanish, and it should be so in the case of Milva, too.
I have been trying to find cassettes or vynils of her sung in Spanish, in the Internet, but I have not found any. However, she has South-American discography, and therefore it must be sung in Spanish.
There is the cover of one LP, entitled "For love", which I would like to find.

new JEAN MICHEL-JARRE CD/DVD set coming soon
With this new studio album, Jarre has certainly surprised us on all fronts, from the music, to the production and even as far as the tracklisting & album titles themselves.
'Téo & Téa' is a shot of fun, hedonist energy laced with suave groove. The album also encompasses Jarre’s talent as a composer and producer – strong, catchy melody lines in a singular, panoramic sound environment.
The music weaves from hip dynamic through to sensual and uplifting dance floor beats.
'Téo & Téa' is a ‘boy-meets-girl’ story….Soul mates who share similar names, similar physiques and life’s ups & downs. The evolution of the music as the album unfolds could be the different moments of their fusional relationship… With this sound-of-the-times album, Jarre has come.

Review:
Bear in mind that the review comes from a Beatles fan with a bizarre sense of humour but this quirky collection of "Noughties" Swedish Beatles covers is fun- if you like the songs in the first place. It's good becuse it's weird. Who else would try this kind of thing but the Swedes? [Brazilians, Canadians, Argentinians, Americans, Liverpudlians...]

"The Space Cakes" have turned out a moody version of "Love Me Do", which sounds as if "Shocking Blue" provided the guitar parts, "Booker T and the MGs" the organ, "The Boomtown Rats" the vocals and "The La's" the percussion. "Nice", as Louie Balfour would have said.

"The Ravengers" handle "Things We Said Today" quite well. At least, unlike some other tribute artists, they were actually able to manage the changes. [There aren't exactly a lot of chords in it, are there?] Gentler and dreamier than the original, it's probably good to dance to, as well.

"Inbetweendays" are the love children of "Alice Cooper" and "The Kinks". I appreciate what they were trying to do but perhaps John Lennon's Dylan parody, "You've got to hide your love away" was not the best song for them. Easy to listen to and bound to appeal to young North American rockers.

"The Dilemas" started out thinking that they were contributing to a "Stones" tribute album but quickly realised the mistake and cobbled together an insensitive version of "Wait" which has been influenced by the Doors and Dr Hook. OK but the intricate timing of the original has been lost under all the twanging, fuzzing, show-off organ solos and tambourine-shaking. There's a short drum solo, which is clearly a nod in the direction of "The End" [Beatles, not Doors].

"Sharp Kiddie" sound a bit like "Procul Harum". I'm not a massive fan of early prog rock but this version of "If I needed somone" does sound like a 'Sixties record. The acoustic set-up is very good. Well done, chaps!

"Taxman" by "Skainsmate" sounds like a Swedish version, produced within the last couple of years. Strange that! Heavily influenced by the original [i.e. nothing new added] but also reminiscent of "The B-52s" and "REM". Like, wo, enough of the drums, already, man.

"The Persuaders" have a sound not unlike late 1970s groups, such as EL&P. Interesting but again "Tomorrow Never Knows", in which sounds effects and unusual techniques played such a crucial part, was an inappropriate choice of song for this group.

"Sgt Pepper" conta...

Review
5 out of 10.

First disc pleasant enough but the second was pretty dreadful. The standard of musicianship was high but there was just no feeling to any of the performances. The recording was crystal clear but lacked any warmth or depth. It was as if computers had produced the whole thing.

The choice of material didn't help. It's better for Beatles tribute artists to concentrate on the rock 'n' roll (and country 'n' western) numbers. Soul and psychedelia sound reidiculous, unless played with some verve.

If you want a fun Beatles tribute album from Germany, look out for "The Beatles Revival Band", now available on CD. They used the right instruments, made the right sound [more like the Beatles live but better!] but sang in the "wrong" language! It's all very clever, though, and the end result is enjoyable, even if your German is a little rusty. It's a good excuse to get your phrase books out.
