Not really. Glad to see that those two albums are getting re-released.

But, the sad part is, "here we go again". Another round of the constant repackaging of Peter's material. After the incessant repackages of his 1978-1981 material, now the same thing SEEMS to be starting with his PGSG material, too. At least, his 78-81 albums are being re-released (have been re-released?) in their original form.

The first 3 Pvk albums have been already re-released in England and "Watcha Gonna Do" has "Woman Don't" and "Watcha Gonna Do" (the supposed title track) as bonus (but not unrelased) tracks.

Both "White Sky" and "Kolors" wil be out in England next June 20th 2005, and both have bonus(but not unreleased) tracks, the same already available on "Legend" , plus the acoustic version of "Apostole".

After a few interviews with Peter's brother Mike, Martin Celmins eventually sorted out from which sessions the "Kolors" tracks came.

Thanks for the info Mario!

The Kolors sleevenotes will be an interesting read!

Thanks Mario, I was looking in to this and this is the way the bonus tracks seem to map out based on the amazon.com listings:

Apostle (Single version) (WS)
Whatcha gonna do (WGD)
Woman don't (WGD)
Touch My Spirit (WS)
Six String Guitar (WS)
You Won't See Me Anymore (WS)
Long Way From Home (Kolors)
Rubbing My Eyes (Kolors)
Corner Of My Mind (Kolors)
Carry My Love (Kolors)

...BUT does anyone here know which remaster the "Legend" version of "Bandit" will be on?

OK - help me out folks. I'm not as familiar yet with Peter's record label history.
Would someone be kind enough to post a list of all these re-released CDs that have recently - or are about to come out so I can proceed to get them? And are these only out in England, or will they be out here in the U.S.? If not I'll look for them as imports.
Thank you.

These are the ones to get, as far as Peter's 1978-1981 material:


In The Skies
Little Dreamer
Whatcha Gonna Do
White Sky
Kolors

I think, as of now, they're only imports...don't know if they're going to be released domestically (US)

I do believe, but I cannot be sure that this reissue of "Kolors" has the Bandit version with slide guitar and pan pipes overdubbed.

The basic version of Bandit (no overdubs) is only available on Legend and on one of the many anthologies with Pvk stuff, called "Rock & Pop Legends" (see the photo).

Mike Green said that the basic version of Bandit was recorded during the "Little Dreamer" sessions.

Thanks Mario, this is interesting, I just listened to them back to back and it sounds like the Kolors "version" is in a higher key and performed at a faster tempo.

I suppose they could've sped the tape up a little before adding the overdubs? I know this has been done before with other artist's recordings (such as Camel's "Lady fantasy" for example)

It's a shame anyways, I think those overdubs (if that's what's in fact happened) really hide Greeny's great playing heard so well on the Legend version/mix.
