Billy Burnette: Radio Tracks
Just wondering if anybody knows anything about this compilation and it's validity as an official release.
I picked it up on Ebay, and the way the inserts are laid out and the information on them make it seem like it's trying to look "official" (it says it's made in Canada and manufactured and distributed by Scye Hi Entertainment) but so much about it screams "pirate" - from the source (ebay) to the title, to the cover art - that I'm left wondering. It supposedly was released last year and features music from 1972-1999. Anyway, here's the tracklist: 1. "Always Wondering 'Bout You Babe" (1972, Billy Burnette) 2. "Just Another Love Song" (1976, Billy Burnette and Jawbone, single) 3. "Shoo-Be-Doo" (1979, Billy Burnette) 4. "Believe What You Say" (1979, Billy Burnette) 5. "What's A Little Love Between Friends" (1979, Between Friends) 6. "In Just A Heartbeat" (1980, Billy Burnette) 7. "Oh Susan" (1980, Billy Burnette) 8. "Don't Say No" (1980, Billy Burnette) 9. "Tear It Up" (1980, Billy Burnette) 10. "The Bigger the Love" (1981, Gimme You) 11. "Let the New Love Begin" (1981, Gimme You) 12. "Angel Come Home" (1983, Mick Fleetwood's Zoo I'm Not Me) 13. "Try Me" (1985, Try Me) 14. "Ain't It Just Like Love" (1985, Try Me) 15. "It Ain't Over" (1985, Try Me) 16. "Roll Over" (1985, Try Me) 17. "Who's Using Your Heart Tonight" (1985, Try Me) 18. "Soldier of Love" (1986, Soldier Of Love) 19. "You Leave It Up To Me" (1986, Soldier Of Love) 20. "Nothin' To Do (And All Night To Do It)" (1992, single) 21. "Can't Get Over You" (1992, b-side to "Nothin' To Do" single) 22. "Tangled Up In Texas" (1993, Coming Home) 23. "I Still Remember (How To Miss You)" (1993, Coming Home) 24. "Today Is Elvis' Birthday" (1999, All Night Long) |

I'm not familiar with it but definitely agree with ya... it does scream "pirate!" just from the cover art.
Looks like a fine collection of tunes tho.

I saw this on e-bay and couldn't find anything on Google about the company or the CD. It screams "pirate" to me, too. However, as far as pirated CDs go, this one actually has a decent track selection. The only songs missing that I can see are "Watcha Gonna Do When The Sun Goes Down" and "Gimme You." But, "What's A Little Love Between Friends" (a song I'm shocked Bekka & Billy didn't do) is on it, which makes it worth it.

That's what I figured. I couldn't find any info on "Scye Hi Entertainment" either. I already had most of the songs on the cd anyway, but really wanted it for "Nothin' To Do (And All Night To Do It)" since that was one of my favorites that he did in Saturday Night Special.

What's the sound quality like on it, Vicky?
I wouldn't mind owning a copy of this myself.

It's actually pretty clear. There's some minimal popping and hissing on the early tracks but nothing too bad. I paid $11.50 plus shipping for my copy and I think it was worth it.

Interestingly enough, I also did a search for Bob Welch (I'm still trying to find a copy of his second 'Fleetwood Mac Years & Beyond" CD) and happened to find this.... http://cgi.ebay.com/BOB-WELCH-fleetw...QQcmdZViewItem Like the Billy disc, it's also a 'Radio Tracks' compilation from "Scye Hi Entertainment."

Oh, I'd love to hear those songs from the Nothing To Do single. Back in the Napster days, I was looking hard for this song, but only got one transfer interrupted, and the tune never showed up again.
If I remember correctly, the song was never officially released on CD, at least not here in Europe. |
