I know.. and I agree.. but I'll still keep my fingers crossed!

I really hope these end up in good hands.

Let this be a call to arms for every Stevie fan on the Ledge- we need to stand up to this shady character who insists on depriving the community from winning these auctions. If we can get every Stevie fan here to contribute, we can outgun any interloper who tries to outbid us. We will succeed in getting every last one of this seller's tapes if we stand united.

Can I get an AMEN in hee-yah?

Amen.

I'm bummed.

I had my Mirror Mirror mix CD already planned, dammit!

Damn! I've been at work all day and missed all this! I can contribute LOTS of $$ on ANY future Stevie purchases!

BTW, HELL YES there are hoarders! I've said it before: There's a woman in San Antonio who DEFINITELY has "I Call You Missing" from Street Angel and MORE. And she's been hoarding it for over 16 years!

Yeah, Matthew, I'm pretty bummed too... The Rock A Little era has some of the best unreleased tracks, but also some of the worst sound quality demos in circulation.

Yeah, I'll never understand people like this. It's one thing (yes, annoying and immoral as it may be) to make money off of hoarding these things then selling them in dribs and drabs... but to just sit on it, keeping it to oneself.. to feel special perhaps? Where is the joy in that?

Jeff, she had "If You Were My Love" and "I Call You Missing" from Street Angel in 1995, and would taunt me with them. This is BEFORE we all got the Street Angel "If You Were My Love" in 1997. I finally ignored her, but in Late 1999, she contacted me again, and she DEFINITELY had ACTUAL 1996~1999 recordings that Stevie done. She quoted from them, played snippets for me, PROMISED them to me, and then never came through. One song from 1999 Stevie wrote after JFK, Jr. died. I forget the other titles. "What Would You Do?" was one (not that recent song some guys wrote on YouTube "inspired" by Stevie; this is an actual Stevie song), and one with a butterfly in the title, I think.

Ah man this sucks, I was just about to post that I'd be willing to contribute to the cost of these gems ... sad face

Wow... very interesting stuff. Hopefully some day it will crop up from someone.. maybe even Stevie herself. But yeah, that had to be really frustrating to have someone just dangling this stuff in front of you.. just out of reach of course.

I about a week we'll all get an email saying we can buy a CD compilation of these cassettes for $150 or some such shiite. Or Mama is having Karen buy back all her precious cassettes!

Me too. Oh well this seller says there is more so I went ahead and created an ebay account.

My god, why? Of all songs to hoard... I just don't get it.

Chanel?! Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't our copy of Chanel, Chanel from the TISL era? Damnit! Wish we would have gotten these
