The Latest News on upcoming CD reissues including The Point! ...

2002-07-16 10:01:24

Camden's reissues (see: New Nilsson Reissues Coming Soon from Camden will be released September 30.

Courtesy of Curtis Armstrong comes the latest news on the upcoming deluxe reissue of The Point! on CD:

The re-release of The Point! will be out on November 19th. The album will be re-mastered and will come in a slipcase with two booklets. One will be the big boss comic book (though not so big, presumably just as boss); the other will be new liner notes and art, including the original "Point!" cover, designed by Dean Torrence before they decided to do the needlepoint version. There are four previously unreleased bonus tracks on the album:

"Life Line" (Take 4) - An early piano/organ vocal take.

"Down To The Valley" - An alternate version. Remixed, and including the coda which was cut off the single release. Very Pet-Soundsy.

"Think About Your Troubles" (Take 4) - A completely different version, recorded with the orchestra in 1969. At this stage, The Point! as a concept probably didn't exist.

"I'll Never Leave You" - We discovered some time ago that this great Nilsson song was originally intended for the "Point!" and was only removed at the last minute. We thought the "Point!" version was lost, but found this demo on an unrelated tape, unmarked. Unfortunately, it is also incomplete. On the tape it cuts off abruptly after ninety seconds. They are, however, an exquisite ninety seconds, so we included it as an unlisted bonus track. Piano/vocal demo. Beautiful.

In other news, Curtis tells us that BMG/Japan is releasing the complete Nilsson catalogue (excepting Son of Dracula for the same rights reason BMG in the US couldn't). The bonus tracks are all previously released. They are, though, including "Ain't It Kinda Wonderful" on either ...That's the Way It Is or Knnillssonn.

And finally, the new Nilsson Greatest Hits is selling remarkably well. As of two weeks ago, it had already surpassed Nilsson Sings Newman and Aerial Pandemonium Ballet and was closing in fast on the best-seller, Pussy Cats. This is good news, as it may help when it comes to releasing more Nilsson CDs next year.
