WOW, what an awesome track listing !!!!
OMG! We get both the green and the blue covers! Love the updated track list. Super excited to get this.
I'm still not 100% convinced that's the track listing, great though it looks, knowing how Amazon doesn't always get its info totally correct. Until we get actual confirmation, I'm still a teeny bit skeptical. But it definitely looks very promising.
Fantastic! I wasn't entirely sure, and I forgot I subscribe to the Facebook group. I should have checked there first. Thanks, thommg!
Hey guys, wasn't A Go Go, the album that had a different mix of You Can't Hurry Love on the Reel to Reel release ?
https://youtu.be/kW6Z3Vcar6I
Nice little go go promo.
Saw it on Facebook as well-looks superb no matter who's singing with Diana!
Did you notice that even before it's release the accompanying booklet seems to have either shrunk or expanded in size. On the video its described as being 22 pages, yet in the description underneath, it appears to have 24 pages. So which is it 22 or 24?
The cover on amazon I hope is wrong. The blue one on FB is great except for the EXPANDED EDITION font where STEREO would have been. It's nice to know what you're actually getting considering how long it's taken for this. And...no other alternates/takes for You Can't Hurry Love??? That's even stranger as someone mentioned there was one on the old reel to reel. At the end of the video it appears to be in a cheap jewel case and album art on the cd itself. I also hope that's wrong otherwise they can keep it.
While we appreciate the effort that was put in to making a "Go-Go" promo it wasn't made from any elements from our actual release. We've done our best to maintain [[and hopefully exceed) the standard of all of the previous expanded editions.
For fans, from my look at the Facebook track listing, I thought it may have exceeded expectations.
Extra mixes of Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart are incredible. A couple of extra duets!! Great!
Everything you guys have done so far in the physical cd's has been above and beyond expectations. It's just confusing when different artwork is shown and haphazard track listings. Like many do, a display of portions of the actual set would help. I say this with all due respect because George, Andy & Harry always deliver. I know this is pushing it but what about the tribute albums including a physical Funny Girl. A Rodgers & Hart digipak? A complete TCB/GIT CD/DVD set...well, you already know. Will we live to see these finished???
djessie, Thanks. George confirmed.
Surely the duet with the Four Tops isnt that awful one off youtube...its the worst mash up ive heard and will ruin this superb set.
Not sure if you mean this one, but it's not that bad. The only issue I have with this YT mashup is that it doesn't have Diana and Levi trading lead vocals/verses.
https://youtu.be/VUQiF_kYd4w
That said, I guarantee that Andy and George wouldn't be downloading a YT video, stripping out the video, and adding the audio to a CD set. If they decided to create a "new" duet of a song, you have to know that they will work [[presumably with the proven Kevin Reeves) on creating such a performance by using the master tapes and skilled editing.
Let's not assume one song [[even one that likely isn't included on this set as is) would "ruin" the set. I think we've waited long enough that Andy and George know that the best possible product is needed. Let's worry less about what we think might be on there and more about making this set sell out! :D
I would soooooooooo love a Rogers and Hart expanded edition. One of my favorite Supremes albums. Mono/stereo with the 13 unreleased tracks and alternate mixes. It would also be nice to get the other specialty albums out on cd again. Why not do a 3 cd box set with A Bit Of Liverpool, Country, Western & Pop and We Remember Sam Cooke each with seperate cd case size booklets and cut outs to make our own cds.
I have purchased every supremes and Ross expanded, and or deluxed editions and you have rocked each one, you have even made me like ones such as Last Time I saw Him, which was , I think , one of her worst solo albums ever. I cant even believe BG allowed that to be released as it. but after your hardwork and dedication , it became the album it was meant to be,
I am hoping this release will do the same as it was not my favorite. to uneven for me.
thanks for all the hardwork. now off to order mine
I sort of did that with Rodgers & Hart. I made it a set including the stuff that was on the Complete Recordings, the alternate mixes from the 1987 "Rodgers & Hart Collection" CD [[which remixed the 12 album tracks, the rest were the same as on "Complete..."). As well as a couple of the alternate mixes and mono mixes that appeared on various collections and anthologies. Though a comprehensive set as you described would be more than welcome.
Based on Andy & George's track record I find it almost unbelievable that anyone could be skeptical or even already negative about this release. I am a big music fan/collector and the artists that get as much love, attention, and years of hard work and dedication as Andy & George have given their releases from The Supremes and Diana Ross are few and far between. As I look forward to yet another stellar expanded edition I can only say how grateful I am that they've worked so hard to bring so many wonderful releases to fruition over the years...thank you all! ;)
In 1987, a CD was released called "The Rodgers And Hart Collection". The CD entry can be seen here:
https://www.discogs.com/Diana-Ross-T...elease/7736430
The weird thing is, not only does it not use the original album cover, the tracks are jumbled all out of order. It contains 24 of the tracks that eventually got released a second time on "The Complete Collection" in 2002. For some reason, I Could Write A Book wasn't included the first time around. And also, all tracks from the original LP seem to be remixed [[except for My Romance, which sounded pretty much identical to what we got on the 2002 CD). The remaining tracks seem to be identical mix-wise, between the two releases. Except, the original versions of "Bewitched..." and "You Took Advantage..." made their appearance on this 1987 disc first, as far as I am aware. It's very odd.

Edit: Looking at the link I posted, it does say in the notes below the track listing....
All selections were remixed from the original 8 track session tapes except for "My Romance."
The point of me saying about the duet is that everyone concerned in these expanded editions does an outstanding job...i have every single one of them and i was just saying that the duet on youtube is atrocious Diana's vocals are not in sync with the track and if this was to be included would spoil the good work thats put into these editions...i was not complaining about the release itself just exspressing my opinion on the edit of the mashup on youtube....im sure it will be first class.
If Go Go has the lavish fold out cover we've been used to then that does exceed my expectations. Thought we'd seen the last of those.
That really would be awesome, to keep in track with the previous ones.
I truly hope this will only be the first of many other physical expanded editions to come. I believe Ross 78 has been said to be digital only [[so yet another no buy for me) but hopefully it will end up being released on CD as well. I am still deeply disappointed over Baby It's Me and the other "releases" from the past few years. Now once again I truly have something to look forward to. Thanks to everyone who made Go-Go happen on CD!
I've always thought the 3 concept LPs [[Liverpool, C&W and Sam Cooke) would make a great deluxe set. Of the three, I think Liverpool overall is the weakest but I still enjoy many of the songs and think that Diane's vocal on "House of the Rising Sun" to be outstanding. I have the 3 LPs recorded on an old cassette tape [[I know, I'm a dinosaur) which I still listen to. What's really enjoyable about hearing these three LPs together is that the harmonies are simply stunning, you hear Mary and Flo throughout, and the song selection and material is not as familiar as all the many hits or even other LP selections. I think these could even be released in a 2-CD set with the Disney selections added as bonus tracks, as these albums were pretty short [[I'm thinking 30-35 minutes) in terms of track length.
I don't know if I'm supposed to say this, but I will because we are close to the release date. Last Fall I was invited to visit Andy at his office. While I was there, he showed me, on iPad, a mock up of the booklet for this release. Even in that state, and as quickly as we went through it, It was one of the best booklets I'd seen for these releases. The additional pictures chosen were ones I had not seen before. I think everyone will be extremely happy with the booklet included! I can't wait to see the final version.
This seems like the most probable way of giving these anything close to an expanded edition, unless they go digital only for each one and do what they did with Funny Girl. No idea if there's anything left over from any of these sessions that we haven't gotten already, but I sure would love if they found something from the Sam Cooke sessions. I always wondered if they had recorded- or intended to record- "For Sentimental Reasons" since it was included in their medley for years. Liverpool is the one of the three I'm not much of a fan of [[though it has it's moments) but I love C&W and Sam Cooke.
