konk Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Smiths cover gave me chills in the car this morning. Mostly because it was the Smiths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobMckinley Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 That price for a ten track lp is giving me chills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron666monkey Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I'm all over this when it falls under $20. Sidney Crosley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney Crosley Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 That price for a ten track lp is giving me chills. Never in his short life could Jeff Buckley have ever imagined that nearly 20 years after his death, people would think about paying nearly $40 to hear his demos. slipcraig, JacobMckinley and Mars 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billya Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I'm eager to hear these. I agree, though. Hopefully the price drops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdomestic Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I don't have the tracklistings in front of me but I think most of this is on the expanded Sin-e and Grace 3CD issues that came out years ago. I love Jeff Buckley but I kinda feel like they're really milking it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 If "All Flowers in Time.." was on it I'd gladly pay $40 for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobMckinley Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Didn't realize this was on 2 discs earlier, at least it should sound pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mameeshkamowskwoz Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Can we get a vinyl pressing of the 2CD Legacy Edition of Sin-E?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axisrecapital Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Agreed - we need a vinyl pressing of Live at Sine and I'll up it to we need a pressing of Live at L'Olympia as well. Agreed - Always suspect when they say "found these in the archives", because you know Sony knew they existed, just careful marketing and advertising Agreed - $40 is too much Disagree that these are "demos". If you listen to Everyday People, these aren't tape recording demos.(or like the sound on the bootleg Trash Can Demos" I bet there will be more released in the next few years, because there is more in the archives Everyday People audio is here (good stuff going on here): http://www.vevo.com/watch/USSM21502202?utm_medium=embed_player&utm_content=watermark&syn_id=346C2586-D3F8-4B75-BA0D-398FDB6E4C08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endserenading Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I would love to hear him sing Everyday People. I love his covers of Just Like A Woman and Night Flight from Sin-E. Always been high on my list of albums I wanna see on vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paralyticstalks Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 If "All Flowers in Time.." was on it I'd gladly pay $40 for it. Exactly. Even if Elizabeth Fraser gets mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axisrecapital Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Just an FYI that there appears to be a 7" promo released with The Boy With A Thorn and the B side being If You Knew (live at Café Sine). I picked it up on Ebay today from a UK seller. Not sure if it is official or a bootleg, but it's out there. Anyone know anything about this Jeff Buckley 7"?

It's up for sale on the HMV website for £4.99 so it must be official http://store.hmv.com/music/vinyl/the-boy-with-the-thorn-in-his-side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axisrecapital Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Well crud...this won't ship to the US. I'd like to get 2 copies of this, so if anyone will be kind enough to purchase and post them to me, I'll paypal you for the trouble with a little extra for a pint or two!

allenh Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Looks like those 7" singles are a HMV exclusive thing. I picked one up in store this morning with a big HMV exclusive sticker on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that would be about the nicest thing someone has done for me in a while. I'll actually only need one. Let me know how to proceed...and thanks so much!

axisrecapital Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 By the way, I am one of the lucky ones that actually saw Jeff perform live. Actually, I've seen him twice in concert, both times in Seattle. The first time was in a really small venue in Ballard. After the show, my girlfriend and I stayed to continue drinking and then Chris Cornell and Matt Cameron walked into the venue, which is when the bartender told us it was "time to go". As we were walking out, Jeff stopped us, talked it up a bit, tore a poster off the wall, autographed and handed it over. Just the nicest guy with the most beautiful voice I'll ever hear. Still a crying shame... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinyl Fury Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 The vinyl pressing of this album certainly has no good reason for being $30-$35. Material is good though. Pressed at MPO in France. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. This could have easily fit onto one record as well. They should have done a pressing that was on 1 vinyl at 33 rpm and a 2nd pressing on 2 LP at 45 rpm. Just saying...

Especially since the music is sparse and dynamic, it could easily fit onto a single LP without significant quality loss. Even at a standard 2xLP, there's no reason it couldn't be $20-22. There's nothing extravagant about it, nor could there have been any extraneous cost for producing the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
