![]() Just wondering if anyone knows whether there are plans to remaster/reissue some of Bob's rarer albums like Man Overboard and The Other One? I've seen a couple on ebay, but they are listed around the $400-500 mark.
Also, I've noticed a few different editions of Bob Welch & Friends listed (at last count, 5 different covers) and wondered if anyone could recommend the best version audio-wise? Cheers, Phil |

![]() Please know that none of these are any good and are all bootlegs. Don't buy them. Bob Welch/His Fleetwood Mac Years and Beyond and II and Bob Welch's Greatest Hits all wonderful and the Best of Bob Welch, as well.
I'll see what I can find out about the other albums, I know that I own all the copyrights to those albums you ask about and am looking into who can put out the master recordings if you would like to get them remastered. <3 |

![]() Thanks Wendy, Edsel did a great job in '98 with French Kiss/3 Hearts & Other One/Man Overboard making them 2 on 1's (though if this was done again, hopefully the 10-20 seconds longer Sentimental Lady could be included which was on the 1990 Best Of Bob Welch Rhino put out back then instead). I don't think the self titled 1981 RCA album ever came out on CD in the US, just Japan and that was many years ago with half the disc blank since the album was so short so a 2 on 1 of that & Eye Contact would be nice). Hopefully if you can swing this you could see if there are any unreleased material that be included to build the discs up to the 80 minutes max. If nothing else maybe you could add all the tracks from Bob's website for those of us oldies wishing to get material on a physical product such as CD's.

![]() Yes, a collection of Seven Souls and other early recordings would be fab to see among others, there are some great specialist labels in the U.K., and Sundazed and Light In The Attic in the U.S. Many are now doing vinyl and CD releases in conjunction. I always opt for new vinyl if available and affordable.
![]() Something like Live French Kiss might easily work as a download only release in wav and mp3 formats? I've gotten various vintage live recordings through Wolfgang's Vault with perhaps limited mass viability, and some from artist's own websites. Last edited by becca; 04-14-2013 at 02:56 PM.. |

![]() I probably have over 100 or 200 unreleased songs, which I would love to get the best out for you and Bob. I have to wait until I settle the probate estate. As I can't touch any of the checks until that is done, and have only so much I can do with the funds until the end of May. Maybe then, I can do as I please for his friends and for Him. Love you all so much for being there for more. This is all so hard. After 27 years with him and almost 10 months with him gone, my life is so very lonely and I miss him so much. I will be married to him for the rest of my life! Please help me and the Welch Warriors on my facebook -- Wendy Welch.1232 -- to get him inducted in the RRHOF as he should have been. Thank you all for your support.
Bob loved you all so much, as do I now that I am learning the internet for Bob! |

![]() Thank you Wendy for your replies and the promise of more releases from Bob. I would buy each and every cd on offer, especially with the added incentive of rare and previously unreleased tracks. I have a few of his albums on cd, but as mentioned previously, some of them are hard to find and prohibitively expensive.
I also want to say that I found your posting of today profoundly moving. Regardless of the intrigue surrounding the Rock 'N' Roll Hall Of Fame debacle, I think everyone is agreed upon the need for Bob to be recognised and inducted. However, aside from that, we should also be respectful of Bob and Wendy's enduring relationship and the loss Wendy has experienced in the last year. How terribly sad this time must have been - my heart truly goes out to her. |

![]() For me, that was the cool thing about Bob just putting those songs as downloads...I could arrange the songs in an order I liked (or by genre...his "rock songs", his "covers", his sort of leftovers from the "Be-Bop" album, etc). Before I got an iPod, I burnt those on CD-R for my collection as "Bob Welch - Private Reserve"
