Thanks guys. I finally went to my computer and got the purchase to go through. I couldn’t get it to take in the iPhone for some reason. I’m bummed that my signed limited edition dvd set was stolen in storage. But I’m happy to be able to at least have the whole concert again on dvd.

I was wondering if The Raspberries on line store is still open. My limited live full dvd signed set was stolen in storage. I’d love to at least replace it with the unsigned one I saw advertised. I emailed a couple of weeks ago with no reply....although the site looks open. Thanks for any info.

I really like this cd. “Would You Say Yes Again” And “Popteasers”are great songs.

Larry....Here’s the back of the cd. Had to fool around with the image quality to attach it here. But it will give you the info to see which version this is. I’m really enjoying this.

Hi Larry. That was an unforgettable evening in New York. It was such a joy to experience that special show with you. hetes a pic of the cd. I’m going to out the front here and the back in a separate post. Had to reduce it to B&W to get the photo to take.

It took forever, but I finally found this Raspberries Greatest with bonus demo tracks. Was lucky to find it sealed and mint condition. Really enjoying the audio quality and rare early tracks.

Eric.just saw that the Japaneese release of The Essential EC will include the Alternate version of "Brand New Year". Will this make a domestic release possible too? Thanks. My turntable has finally failed me...I am so looking forward to hearing this version. Love the. Song. Congratulations!

"From the day we met I knew that I should Never let you Get a hold on me 'cause now you see I Can't forget you"

happy to have picked up the new vinyl 45 by Eric. I was winding if there is a digital copy of this available or just restricted to vinyl?

I took Bernie's advice and ordered through Vintage Vinyl. Two days later number 2677. So the run appears to be more than 2000..maybe 3000? Great looking package. Congratulations Eric and everyone involved. Now I've got to bring out the turn table and listen to this gem.

It's a beautifully constructed song...and not just for the holiday. It's never too late to begin a brand new year. Love this song!

http://donphurley.wordpress.com/2014/03/29/review-of-the-essential-eric-carmen/ Congratulations Eric and everyone involved with this masterpiece. It was a joy to continuously sit and listen uninterrupted to 30 beautifully constructed tracks of pure genius and then write this review. Great reaction in from the listeners of The Steel Pier Radio Show in Atlantic City to Eric's new song tat we played todays (Saturday). I rated the new album 4 1/2 out of 5 stars (only because I want more music and want Eric to record another album and reach for that last half star!) Heartiest congratulations...this set is a great gift to true music lovers everywhere.

Wanted to let everyone know that we will be playing Eric's new song on tomorrow (Saturday's) Steel Pier Radio Show in Atlantic City. You can tune in from 4:00-5:00 PM (EST) at www.wpg1450.com. Just click "Listen Live" and you'll be with us. It's a fun show...we'll also have an advanced track from Engekbert's soon to be released duets album and a very special interview with comic impressionist legend Rich Little..."The Man if a Thiusand Voices." Eric's "Brand New Year" will play in the second half hour as my "Producer's Pick" of the week. Not just a January 1st song to me...but a great message of hope that it's never too late to start a " brand new year" at any time.
