re: the April Sounds cd

PS, I just noticed that this item doesn't say factory pressed cd's or artwork. It may be a custom homemade job. Sh-t, I have the lp burned to cd, why don't I create my own April Sounds if that is the case? Cause I hate to buy homemade crap and don't want to sell it either.

Regarding the inclusion of "The Ostrich" in this set I noticed that no-one has mentioned the fact that there are two totally different pressings of the 45. This matrix version, as noted in the track description posted, has a muchfuller & more pronounced bass sound. Viewed side by the side, the two different pressings are noticably different. So perhaps this explains it's inclusion in this set. Hearing will be believing, I suppose...
Re: Velvet's Genuine Bootleg Series
Where does this info come from? I haven't heard this mentioned before, I doubt it sold well enough to go to a 2nd pressing, and if it had, it wouldn't be so rare. Smells like bootlegger bullshit to me. Many years ago I searched high and low for an original copy of this single, before giving up totally.ludlow wrote:Regarding the inclusion of "The Ostrich" in this set I noticed that no-one has mentioned the fact that there are two totally different pressings of the 45... .
I've noticed the wording of the blurb for boots is always very carefully chosen, with half-truths and disinformation mixed with fact, but few outright lies. Another example of this muddying of info is the dating of the tracks from "11 Nov 69" on CD3 - we know they didn't play on that date thanks to Olivier's gig lists (http://members.aol.com/olandem2/perf69.html) so these could be from any 69 show.
I'm v happy to have at least some of the Gym tape to listen to in 2008, but I don't think bootleggers are in it for love.
bobbldr says he knows who's putting it out - why so coy with this info?
Re: Velvet's Genuine Bootleg Series
99 $ for this Bootleg...what's wrong with this Bootlegers this is just stupid but the people buy it.
I will wait till someone torrent this and if it turns out there is something mindblowing on it i will buy too - but not for 99 $

Re: Velvet's Genuine Bootleg Series
You are probably right papaya ... but the pic showed on the link you privided is also different than the one sold at Ebay ...


Re: Velvet's Genuine Bootleg Series
I am not being coy about anything. I am not certain, it is merely an educated guess, so do not want to "out" anyone. Come on, think about it, I am sure that you can draw your conclusions if you really think about it.simonm wrote: bobbldr says he knows who's putting it out - why so coy with this info?
