Also consider this project has been in the works for years. There were songs that were Mary's favorites and some she wasn't as fond of. There were others involved who had likes or dislikes. So what you do is, do the best you can to present a nice overview. Most songs chosen had cool alternates or extended fades. In the 44 page booklet [[yes, I did say FORTY-FOUR page booklet not to mention a six panel digipak) we address most of the other songs and where you can get them.
A few other things that were asked... Andy is mainly responsible for the Hillary Clinton forward. He deserves a medal [[and a vacation) for his dedication to Mary and fighting for the integrity of this project every step of the way.
Several shows from the Frontier were recorded but interesting [[and surprising) to note that the Farewell album used all performances from the very last show January 14, 1970.
More will be revealed soon and we certainly appreciate the positive response to this release. I think it's wonderful and full of surprises. It's also a loving and well deserved tribute to a very supreme lady!
