Product Description

Rolling Stone (6/11/98, pp.118-120) - 3.5 Stars (out of 5) - "...a generally stellar collection....There's an unforced, earthy funkiness to much of the stuff here....Morrison's leftovers make for a pretty substantial and soulful musical meal..."
Entertainment Weekly (6/19/98, p.73) - "...STONE shows us how hard Morrison worked in his heyday, kneading a song until he had it the way he wanted it. These two CDs offer a sort of parallel universe: the unreleased flip side of the great Warner Bros. and Mercury albums that--until now--constituted Morrison's legacy..." - Rating: A-

数あるアーティストの「お蔵入り」発掘作品...

投稿日：2009/09/12 (土)

数あるアーティストの「お蔵入り」発掘作品の中でも、本作品は凄かった。使用されたマスターテープのジェネレーションが関係してるのか、収録された音はオリジナルアルバム収録のテイクより生生しい発見も多数。リマスターの必要なし！（日本盤レギュラー価格での再発を熱望）
