20th century Lindsey
 

Hi there,

coming in August...

20th century Lindsey

At least eight rarities from the 20th century :thumbsup:

Thank you for sharing. This is really disappointing. We had a great Anthology cd package in 2018. I would have loved his "new album" to have been out this August. It's coming up on three years since his last studio album. I doubt this box set will "make money".

So, after a little digging I found the eight special rarities (as shown on the German amazon music):

Holiday road
Dancin' across the USA
Go insane (Extended Remix)
Slow dancing (Extended Version)
Time bomb town
Soul drifter (Radio Remix)
On the wrong side
Twisted

Slow dancing (Extended) can already be streamed... :cool:

And...it seems this compilation will be released in Germany mid-June

Nothing new for me here that I don’t already own . At least with Stevie’s box set her rarities cd was worth the purchase. (IMO)

I’ll be buying this. Before Christine died, I had made the decision to purchase any material that was rereleased, in the hope that more material would be forthcoming, such as a Deluxe Edition of Behind the Mask, or blu-ray editions of concert videos, so I’m happy this is coming out.

I’m sure I will end up buying it also with your point in mind.

I'm hoping this will be released on vinyl!

It is going to be released on vinyl in June. First 500 copies signed by Lindsey. Go to rhino.com

i'm only interested in the rarities, but first I'd like to listen them to know if they are worth it.

Rhino has done some vinyl reissues that sound amazing lately. Their most recent campaign of Little Feat reissues have been superb. I'm hoping these vinyl pressings will be just as great.

Easy pre-order for me.

Are they hand signed or does a machine print his signature on the item?

Signed Litho
 

Hand signed.

The rarities should have included “I Want You Back”

Yes and the three tracks from the “This is 40” soundtrack.

I would have liked a few more rarities, including the "soft mix" for "Countdown" and some unreleased material, but this is cool nonetheless

At least Trouble should be the full length unedited version, not like on the Anthology remaster. Yay!:]

This is 40 Songs
 

These were not released until 2012 (21st Century Lindsey).

Oh my bad, they could have called the rarities cd something else.😕

YES :nod:

I would much rather have an expanded or deluxe edition of OOTC (ala those Mac 70s albums deluxes), not with radio remixes like the Tango deluxe, but with rehearsals, demo and alternative versions, etc.

I'll be buying this, it looks very nicely packaged.

Not a good name for it though. '20th Century Lindsey' would be fine for the title of an article on an online music journal, or even a thread here! But it seems too trivial and throwaway to me.

I guess the good thing about the title is it implies a second release at some point, entitled “21st Century Lindsey!”

That's true! Luckily he's been pretty busy in this century too. I hope it also heralds something new soon.

Mick probably wanted the full cut of the royalties (joking). There are probably rights issues with it since the I'm Not Me CD is now long out of print even though it was released 12 years ago.

I think I need to buy it, even when the "rarities" CD is not that rare, and I have Law & Order and Out Of The Cradle on CD too (I have Go Insane only on cassette)

The real "rarities" were those first versions of some 2000s songs, those from the Gift Of Screws "demo" album...Weren't they recorded in the 90s, almost all of them?
Where's Wear You Down?? I need more Law & Order demos and rarities! :confused:

I love this cd. I’m so glad I have it. I think Mick’s solo albums are all great. He really can put a band good band together.

My guess is that there's no data for the record company to back up the idea that releasing an album consisting of demos and rare tracks for Lindsey would make any money. I would buy this release regardless but hopefully it does well so that a potential project like that would happen in the future.

iTunes mentions June 14 too, as release date.

This release makes no sense after the Anthology box set recent release.

So it's already released as announced in his networks. I was listening it and have a question. Is the Soul Drifter Radio Remix an old one? I read it is a "remaster" so I understand it was released in the past, but I had never heard it before.

And I'm reading comments that the 2018 remasters sound better than these.

Yes, the radio remix was serviced to various adult contemporary radio stations in the US to my understanding. This mix was uploaded to YouTube around 2019, so it was not specifically made for the album.

I agree. And it’s over three years since he released “I Don’t Mind” and announced his new album and tour of 2021. What’s going on?

According to Stevies new interview in Mojo magazine, Lindsey isn't in great health.

Does she allude to what is the problem?

I just saw a snippet of the article on X. I did order it but don't have it yet. She said she doesn't think he can do a tour. Kind of sounds like maybe heart trouble or long Covid maybe. I am only guessing. So it sounds like they have been in touch.

Maybe she means what happened in 2019 with his heart.
Not directed at you but I doubt they are in touch. I don’t see Stevie as someone who would let something go. She wants to talk about how she supported him in the 70s but in my opinion, she doesn’t want to talk with him anymore.

I agree with this. I SERIOUSLY doubt that they're in touch. I think he'd be open to it, but don't think that she would be.

And she's so dumb, she probably thinks his heart episode was 6 months ago.

That is possible. She doesn't get dates or timelines right. Lol. This is supposed to be a new interview so I'm looking forward to reading it. Especially her thoughts on Lindsey. Wouldn't it be great if she told her side of the story on what happened with Lindsey. But we won't get that.
