Sing Six track list?

[jmille22]

I bought Sing Six a good six months ago (it was necessary) and have a 22-track album, not a 19-track album. In addition to those listed in today's review, I also have:

20. RPI Rusty Pipes - For the Widows In Paradise, For the Fatherless In Ypsilanti
21. Six13 - Im Eshkachech
22. Stanford Harmonics - Spiel Mit Mir

That's what I see today on the Amazon page I downloaded the album from all that time ago. Is there any reason these tracks weren't included on the pressed disc? They're all excellent and "Im Eshkachech" is INCREDIBLE—Mike Boxer's arrangement is wonderful and Justin Rosenblum's lead makes me so jealous I want to cry. This may or may not be related to him holding an extended C2 to end the song.

...ANYWAY, anyone have any info on why these tracks weren't reviewed? Just curious.

Thanks for all that, Alex. I never thought to check track times.

Man, I had no idea it was a guest solo... the download has no liner notes so I went off the group site and made a best-guess. ><

Alex is partially right -- we could have filled 3 discs with the amazing Sing-worthy music we got last year but alas, were hindered by technical realities. I decided to request a Sing edit of Foreplay/Longtime because I felt that the original cut of the track was longer than it needed to be, with all other considerations aside (like the overall album length). I still prefer the Sing edit of that song to the original submission, but maybe that's just me.

But back to the [lack of review of] bonus tracks: beyond album length constraints, the other issue is that Sing became free for all CASA members last year for the first time (as it will continue to be when each new installment comes out). We wanted to build in a special reward for our members and came up with the bonus track idea. In the end, a goof up on my part meant that everyone who bought on Amazon/iTunes got those three extra tracks as well. That won't happen in the future.

Personally, I wish the reviewers had reviewed the three bonus tracks as well, since I think all three are worthy of comment :-)
