LIVE CDS THAT SHOULDN'T BE RELEASED BUT DID ANYWAY

Sometimes there are some live albums that were never meant for public consumption but sometimes partly because of public demands and mostly 'cos of the money factor, these are inevitable released to the fans. For good or bad it's up to the individuals. Sometimes the artists involved are so big that the fans will lap up anything the record companies can come up with. If the artists involved have their ways, these CD would probably never sees the light of day.

THE GOLDEN SLOW ROCK : LIVE IN CONCERT : This was the one I meant that was not meant for public consumption. The titles will pleases any music lovers but there are all live versions but not so nicely recorded in term of sound quality. The artists would never have let these be released but here being Malaysia, anything goes. I have all these songs featured here in studio recordings but it gives me a kick to listen to the alternative live versions. 'Ready For Love', 'Wind Of Change', one of my all time favorite 'I'll Be There For You' and 'Tears In Heaven' are all a joy to listen to, live or not. DOP : 22nd January 1996.



THE SUPERSTAR COLLECTION : LIVE & STUDIO. VOLUME ONE : This is a legitimate collection made for charity. for The Prince's Trust. I love this CD for the two ex Beatles' tracks. George Harrison's 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps', 'Here Comes The Sun' and Paul McCartney's 'Get Back'. It would be swelled to have Ringo Starr here as well but he's featured in Volume Three of this series. Some people just don't get it. Other note worthy tracks are 'Money For Nothing', 'Better Be Good To Me', and 'Sailing'. I couldn't get my hand on the other two volume, otherwise it's make a nice collections. DOP : 19th December 2002.
