Don H Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 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. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Don! Great find (if it's the rarity I'm thinking of—the one that was pulled shortly after release?). Nice to hear from you, too! We sat next to each other at the Highline Raspberries reunion (the Saturday show) back in 2007. Seems like another lifetime ago, doesn't it? —Larry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 There are actually 3 versions of that unreleased rarity. One was from Capitol, one was from the record club, and the other was promo. Can't remember the rarity of each, but Bernie knows... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Don, can you drop in a photo of the CD cover of your find? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don H Posted August 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don H Posted August 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LC Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Wow! Great find. Did you get it online? I would love to find out how many copies of that thing slipped out. I don’t think it was very many. Bernie, do you happen to know? Also, I have the hardest time posting photographs here. I would post a lot more pictures if I could… But it tells me that the maximum total size of a photo is 0.01 MB. That is one tiny photograph! That truly was an unforgettable night. We had a great view, from the Wally side of the stage, which was cool because We not only had a great view of his guitar mastery, but we had Eric facing us when he played songs on the keyboard... which were very moving, from “I Can Remember,” to “Overnight Sensation,” to “All By Myself.” That was the first night the Raspberries had “All By Myself” on the set list, by the way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew C. Clark Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Don't need that because I do have the Japan reissue 2016 bonus tracks!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
