(shot down) Ya got me! You're right though, I must've overlooked that, "Crawling king snake" IS the same version on both BDC & "From Clarksdale to heaven remembering John Lee Hooker" so never mind about the Hooker tribute, it's redundant (for PG stuff anyways). Thanks for that slap around though, I needed that (you know me, I'm Mr. "Keep it weeded down" Minimalist).

Now, yeah "Blue guitar" has the B side "Apostle" as well as the song called "Whatcha gonna do?" (don't understand why this one wasn't on the album of the same name but it isn't (at least not the copy I have)) & "Woman don't" (the B side to the "Walkin' the road" single).

So I guess I shouldn't say those and the "Legend" stuff (more of which in a minute...) is/are "unique to these releases" but it's the "easiest" place to go in order to tidy things up as of this date that I know of in regards to the odds and ends anyways. As for that stuff on "Legend", I don't have these tracks on other PG CD's and I therefore need to take out the "Legend" CD to play these songs:

TOUCH MY SPIRIT
SIX STRING GUITAR
YOU WON'T SEE ME ANYMORE
LONG WAY FROM HOME
RUBBING MY EYES
CORNER OF MY MIND
CARRY MY LOVE
BANDIT (different (& better IMHO) version to the "Kolors" one)

I think I did hear somewhere that some of these were outtakes circa "White sky" album time period but I'm not sure if that's true or not. As I say, I have seen SOME of these on other redundant PG comps but this is the one that has all 8 tracks (though there may be other comps out there that have all 8 of these that has a different cover/title slapped on it but anyways at least I know of the existance of this one so if iamstevienicks (or anyone else interested) comes across the "Legend" CD comp in their travels, I'd recommend it.

Yeah the PGSG "Tribal dance" & "Uganda woman" remakes are really growing on me (I've got the PG/NW 1972 UW on a CD-R but still seeking an original though I know, I'm dreamin'...) making it tough to decide which version(s) I prefer but hey, I won't complain, I'd rather have that to decide upon rather than be stuck with a dud version and an easy choice.

Oh and geez, no I haven't heard anything further on the Harrison tribute either, I sure am gonna be interested to see which GH tune he does though whenever it is that we do find out.
