Hi Ken: First of all thanks for thinking of us here at The Ledge....its nice to know that 'us' as fans do matter. Sometimes , sadly, it (meaning we as fans) seem to get 'lost' in the shuffle or so it seems really. I also look forward to your book & I do also hope you'd do a book for Tusk as well. I really love the Tusk LP/cd....I think I may like it a little bit more than Rumours. Anyway: lets see as far as questions go.....
1/Why was the one line cut from 'Songbird' of Christines song (...I see you smile...) personally, I love that little extra line in the song. Even though the song is beautiful as it is but I wish that would be included in the 'new' issue of Rumours but that is IMO anyway.
2/With Stevie's Silver Springs: why has the offical/or extended full 7 minute version (if it really is 7 minutes?) offically released? I know we have the re-issue versions etc but I'm speaking of the offical version culled from the edited version that was on the back of GYOW? Will that full version ever 'see' the true light of day? Cause I'd love to hear it all.
3/Is there any talk of 'live' versions of songs from the Rumours tour or a full 'live' dvd to be released. Personally, I'd love it ....other than the 'new' Rumours stuff to be released later this yr? (A Tusk one would be nice also!!)
4/I'd love to see more rare outtake pictures of the band during Rumours too....LP cover outtakes...as well as full band outtakes...and some great 'live' pictures would be nice color pictures too....not just b/w pictures....
5/I also would love to know what other songs (again besides the one's released on the Rumours re-issue cd) were considered for the Rumours lp??
If I think of other questions I'll put them in here. Also: as another question unrelated to Rumours. Do you know if re-issue's will ever be done on Mirage (which needs it badly) with an extra cd of outtakes etc/'Live' with extra live songs /extra cd/Tango --again with extra cd or Mask?? Speaking as a fan it would be great to have them ...esp Mirage....I love it but my cd is so 'low' sounding its hard to listen to it really. Plus as much as I loved the re-issue to Tusk...on disc 2 I'd wished more outtakes would've been included. But thats just my opinion.
Anyway, can't wait for your book....hope you do many more & I hope theres alot of great outtake pictures inside too. Thanks for your time. Sue
