Other than getting studio versions of existing SP songs, hearing songs that have been recorded but we've never heard, etc, what SP stuff would you most like?

Here's my list:

Metro 2000 "Last Show" DVD
Complete Glass and The Machines of God cartoon with good production values
Zeitgeist without vocals

[GracefulSwan]

+1 on the Metro show DVD. I'd also like Billy to incorporate Zwan songs into modern SP setlists, seems sad to abandon a whole catalogue of work. Plus I'd like a proper, honest (with no mentions of God) autobiography from one of the original band members.

[Bountiful_Wasteland]

My list is pretty simple....
*ahem*
Everything.

[LostSoul]

Metro DVD
Zeitgeist with a lower mix & rougher production values. Maybe mixed the vocals way down, or if demos exist, I'll take those.


That's about it. Aside from that, everything I want lies within the unreleased songs area.

- A video collection of pro-shot concerts from all eras of the band on Blu-ray (2-3 from every era)
This includes: Brixton Academy (1996), Botanique (1998), Detroit (Arising '99), Final Metro (2000), Paris Reunion (2007)

- All 4 complete Double Door '95 shows on CD and DVD video.

- Finished studio takes of Speed, Towers of Rabble, Methusela, Wishing You Were, and all other unreleased MCIS tracks

- Pastichio Medley tracks in full, as well as all other Mellon Collie demos

- All songs attempted from the various Adore sesssions (1996-1998)

- High quality demo/ studio cuts of all Residency material

- Studio cuts of all tracks abandoned for Teargarden (2008-present)

- All unreleased Zwan material (studio and demo)

- Future Embrace demos

- Aeroplane Flies High as a deluxe 5x12" vinyl box set

- In addition to Billy's idea of the combined Machina reissue, I'd like to additionally see a deluxe Machina 1 reissue, and a standalone, remastered commercial release of Machina II.

I'd actually add ALL of this to my list. :happy:/>

I would really like to hear all the unreleased Zwan stuff

[themadcaplaughs]

In chronological order...

-The various footage that exists of the Siamese Dream sessions. I've read before that it was pretty extensively filmed. Some of it was used in Vieuphoria and you can see one clip of some of it (Billy screaming at the band) in the Graceful Swans of NEver film.
-Double Door shows...I am guessing it would be to unfeasible for the band to release it ALL, so perhaps some kind of "best of" live album from the shows.
-Complete 666 video footage.
-All Adore songs that Billy has mentioned...we know there is a "Cash Car Star" and "Let Me Give the World to You" from the Adore sessions, but in his Confessions Billy also mentions a song that has 48 unique chord changes as well as a song he wrote directly relating to his divorce.
-The Adore documentary that was never released...I'd also be very interested to see the footage of the live band from that era rehearsing. It would have been interesting to see how they went about incorporating Mike Garson, Kenny, and the percussionists into the show.
-DVD of one of the Arising shows, preferably Detroit.
-December 2, 2000 Metro show
-Listen to all the jams, demos, etc. that led up to Zeitgeist. Billy mentioned that there were 30 demos, not to mention the jamming Billy and Jimmy did (with and without Eric Avery) in 2005-early 2006.
-Some of the recorded version of the residency songs. Billy mentioned on Facebook that he recorded some of these around early 2008. In my opinion, this would be perfect SPRC material.
-Some sort of live album featuring highlights from the 20th Anniversary Tour. The band was TIGHT at that point. Jimmy and Billy were really playing off of each other, the songs had reached a level of greatness, and the backing horns, violin, and two keyboardists really gave the songs an epic feel.
-Some of the demos Billy demoed in the earliest sessions for Teargarden by Kaleidyscope with Mark on bass, Kerry on drums, Linda Strawberry on keys.
-A solid release date for Oceania.

Yup. Although we've managed to get access to a lot of the officially unreleased stuff, I can't help but wonder what else is out there.

I liked him doing Zwan at that (Portugal?) acoustic show a couple months back because it seemed to jibe with the other songs he was playing an doing it acoustic. But I'm not sure about doing it in a regular concert. This isn't because of the politics of it, but just because the MO of Zwan was "make sure it doesn't sound like SP" which is pretty much how it turned out, so I think it would be weird to mix those two very different vibes. It would be like throwing a TFE song into an SP set. Not terrible, but just very weird.

:scatch:/> We have almost nothing non-album wise of Zwan, besides the audience bootlegs and the crap-quality rips from Spun.

As I understand it, there is roughly 2 albums worth of studio Zwan material (1 True Poets, and 1 Djali). There are undoubtedly many demos and band rehearsal recordings that would be worth a listen as well, I imagine.

[whywontyoulisten]

DVD box set or video downloads of the Arising tour shows. That's all I ask.

Yea, that's true. I'm not sure if the sites that I got em from are still up.

I've got (and I surmise many others here also have) these studio songs (some low quality):

Honestly/Lyrics singles b-sides
Spun soundtrack songs
"Soul Machines" compilation
'My Life and Times'

[snail33]

the alleged re-take of the adore record with jimmy playing drums (anyone know anything about it)?

7" vinyl box version of tafh

vinyl judas 0

3" cd box of machina singles

8-track of zeitgeist (just kidding)

IMO the songs from TBK all sound like Zwan songs, far more than they do SP songs.

there was a fan made compilation of adore songs played live with jimmy arranged in the album tracklisting if that's what you're thinking of

Does anyone still have that studio cut of My Life And Times edited together from For Your Love DVD? That would be on my wish list...

[.absof.]

Something similar to this for all albums.
http://www.jbhifionl...-edition/653431

I would want;
Disc 1 - Remastered studio album
Disc 2 - All b-sides and demos
Disc 3 - Live compilation (electric)
Disc 4 - Live compilation (acoustic)
Disc 5 - Official videos and TV performances (SNL, Letterman etc.)
Disc 6 - Pro-Shot video concert (fan chosen by poll)
