Hi all, I'm planning to compile tour dates, locations, setlists, personnel etc. for as many tours and gigs as possible. I've already collected some stuff - if you have any information about former tours and setlist regarding older gigs before 1989 - please send me a message. I'm only interested in &...
Why should the company that owns the rights have to ask Chris first before they re-release a compilation? I guess they can release whatever they want - and vinyl gets more and more interesting again, these days. In fact vinyl has been the only format during the last years with growing sales figures ...
The first one is a strange compilation of songs - probably using the re-recorded tracks from 2008 that sound like he made them during a lunch break. Like the compilation "The Definitive Greatest Hits" (what a laugh!) an effort by the Edel-label to make easy money with the re-recorded songs...
Hi all, to be honest I think neither Chris nor the record company / companies show too much interest in the early works. So even if the tapes can be restored - there must be dozens of tapes (e.g. live recordings) in the vaults somewhere and noone has been keen on releasing that stuff until now. Why ...
I hope so, but in the past the record companies haven't been too interested in Chris' back catalogue - to put it politely. There were many Best-Ofs - but no Box etc. which puzzles me because many lesser known artists released something like that. So, why should they release an album that never reall...
this is really amazing! Where did you get these great news from?
Maybe after all this time there's something going to happen in terms of re-releases, rarities etc.
Believe me guys, I am very happy that I was wrong
Nevertheless I wish Chris or his management would give us some tiny feedback.
He/they must know that we have been terribly worried after the collapse
This confirms my worst fears. Although Chris has always been kind of reclusive in terms of his private life with many months going by without a sign of life - at least we would have got at least a little update on his health status if it wasn't that bad. But no news since his collapse - and it's alr...
Well, the setlists from 2006 on have been nearly identical and I cannot believe any german fan would approve that - or even demand it... maybe if the setlist consisted of hits only. It's clear to me that he has to play a few hits - every artist is expected to do that - and I guess 80% of the audienc...
Another detail I simply don't get: in the EPK he says that this album wasn't actually planned. But he didn't release an album for the last six years - apart from the La Passione remake - and he often boasted about writing songs each day and having the problem that he has too much material and the re...
I think he had paid his mortgage back by 1988 or so due to his commercial success since the mid-80's - and he sold millions of records at least in the early 90's and still got heavy rotation on many radio stations. "Driving Home" alone gives him a nice income each year. So unless he ruined...
