You'll notice a slight variation in the mix of the title track. Specificly Holly singing a line from Ferry 'cross the Mersey. This would be the first version of WTTP The Island issue is changed from the original release for whatever reason. - -paul # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info ztt" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email ztt@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # ZTT discography available at http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?ztt ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 10:47:24 -0700 From: Lazlo Nibble Subject: Re: (ztt) A/B ZTT FGTH WttP CD's TLA PDQ :) On Mon, Dec 21, 1998 at 04:37:55AM -0800, Christopher Robin Zimmerman wrote: > So I guess my question is, what's the deal?

The cynic in me suggests that "Happy Hi" is published by a ZTT-related company, and San Jose isn't. - - Andy R. # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info ztt" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email ztt@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # ZTT discography available at http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?ztt ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1998 15:35:47 -0500 From: Adam J Weitzman Subject: Re: (ztt) A/B ZTT FGTH WttP CD's TLA PDQ :) "Andy R." wrote: > Lazlo Nibble wrote: > > > Why replace "Happy Hi" with "San Jose?"

Neither are "Born To Run" or "War." I suppose they could have done it to reduce their payout (they left off "Ferry" as well), but it seems more like a multi-format strategy than a cost-saving one. ZTT was infamous for the former, not really for the latter. - -- Adam J Weitzman NewsEdge Corporation Is it supposed to http://www.newsedge.com sound like that? http://www.newspage.com # Need help using (or leaving) this mailing list? # Send the command "info ztt" to majordomo@lists.xmission.com. # To post, email ztt@lists.xmission.com; replies go to original sender. # ZTT discography available at http://www.swcp.com/lazlo-bin/discogs?ztt ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 24 Dec 1998 01:21:29 -0800 From: jon Subject: (ztt) new 808 state/ZTT stuff for sale Hi ZTTers, Happy holidays! here are a few more things I have for sale, if you're looking for a christmas present for yourself, these might do it.... 808 State: Sawnoff Dali PROMO double 10" of tracks from Don Solaris.
