The tracklist of the UK release of “Red Velvet Car” (on the label Eagle Rock) has been published on amazon.co.uk (pre-order here) and it has twelve tracks instead of the 10 tracks the American label Sony Legacy has published. Extra tracks are “Bootful of beer” and “Closer to the sun“.
The tracklist is also on the big European based internet CD/DVD store play.com.
I really hate when this happens. It’s not fair to the fans. I don’t want to have to buy multiple copies of the CD, or to just try and get the EuroCD. Just put all the tracks on every CD, or put out an EP with all the extra tracks!!!!
I never did get the extra tracks from Ann’s solo release or Jupiter’s Darling as I didn’t want to buy each more than once. It’s things like this that help promote file sharing and illegal downloading.
hi i think IT’S THE RECORD COMPANY THAT ARE BEHIND THIS? IT APPEARS THAT THE ARTIST DOESN’T HAVE TOO MUCH SAY ONCE THE RECORD GETS INTO THEIR HANDS AND IT’S THEIR WAY TO MAKE MONEY SO YOU DO HAVE A POINT, I JUST THEY WOULD MAKE IT EASIER FOR FANS TO GET THOSE EXTRA TRACKS. ” I’M STILL TRYING TO GET ” HURRY UP HEALER” FROM THE LOVEMONGER’S WHILY GIG TOO, I REFUSE TO SPEND $30 FOR THE JAPANESE CD SO I JUST GAVE UP WITH THAT ONE.
THE 1980 GREATEST HITS ALSO HAD 3 TACKS CUT FROM IT WHEN IT WAS RELEASED ON TO CD{“HIT SINGLE-NOT A SONG BUT IT HAD THEIR SENSE OF HUMOUR AT THAT TIME] AND STRANGE EURPHORIA”
anyway maybe if WE KEEP BITCHING THEY MIGHT HEAR US! KEEP ROCKING FOREWORD!!!
Yes, I realize it is the various record companies doing this and not the band. But why do UK buyers get 2 more tracks than USA buyers? What makes them “special”? I’d feel the same way if the USA release had more tracks than other releases. It would be nice if there was 1 equal release for all.
I am a music fan and collector. I buy things legit and honestly miss out on bonus stuff at times because it is out reach. I US version on average is $10. A “import” can easily start at $30 and up for even one bonus track. Japanese with “better sound” cds are way more. Why not make it available to all. Stop all the bs. Fans support who they love in this case I will support Heart…already preodered a cd, but will not buy multiple copies….this is why the music busines has failed…they screwed the people and the people stopped buying.
