The price has come down a few dollars, at least from when I pre-ordered last week. Looking at my original email invoice and my "live" invoice at amazon, my total is now about $7 less.

I was doing some pre-holiday organizing last night and pulled out a box containing some very old CDs from the late nineties when I was heavy into collecting and trading Stevie demos, interviews and live shows.

I found a very high quality (but albeit an "audience recording") CD of the Forum show in L.A. Presumably the same show we are getting for this Bella Donna reissue.

I basically only listened to "Think About Out" and "Blue Lamp" which were both INCREDIBLE during this show. What a shame it is that we are not getting these songs on the Live Disc. Roy Bittan's piano playing is STELLAR on both of these, especially "Blue Lamp" where his part basically replaces the main guitar melody of the Studio Version.

To me, this is really the only thing that bums me out about this reissue.

Maybe in the next twenty years, these two gems can get the SUPER deluxe treatment?

I agree that the omission of "Think About It" and "Blue Lamp" from the live disc is a major disappointment. I have heard the bootleg of the full show as well and these two performances really stood out for me. I guess the only chance we have of maybe getting these two tracks is if she one day issues the complete show on dvd/blu-ray. I don't know if the missing songs were filmed or not - I wonder if anyone knows?

100% agreement with sorcerer999 and Phil- I can't believe that 2 of my all time favorite Stevie songs, Think About It and Blue Lamp, are left off the live CD. Think About It was also left off Enchanted. I hate to be so disappointed, since we're lucky to be getting these reissues anyway, but it bums me out.

On the plus side, we WILL be getting an alternate version of "Think About It" on the bonus disc of outtakes.

All the track times are up on iTunes now. Not long to go!!

[sorcerer999]

A 7:36 long version of "Sable On Blonde"??!!! I think I'm in heaven!!! I wonder if there are two or three more verses laid out here?

"Sorcerer" is 5:25 - making it twenty seconds longer than the Streets Of Fire version, which we all know kind of fades prematurely at the end during the part that Stevie has taken over the song. So I'm wondering if this IS, in fact, the same version but just with a lead vocal by Stevie?

Other interesting things to note in regards to the run times on "Bella Donna"...

The Alternate "Sleeping Angel" is only 4 seconds longer than the released version. This one probably isn't that much different, I'm guessing.

The Live "Edge Of Seventeen" is a minute longer than the one on "Enchanted", so either it's the unedited version of THAT (so we get all the "Edge Walk" music from the HBO show) or it's a completely different take from a different show, altogether. "Gold & Braid" also clocks in shorter than the "Enchanted" live version.

[Andyleo]

Yeah, these times are very interesting, I hope it's a different edge of seventeen as you suggested it could be and not just extra talking on the end or the edge walk.

Is it different than the "dressing room rehearsal" or whatever? It won't play for those of us in the US.
