Electric Light Orchestra - Unreleased Secret Messages (bootleg)


2010 AppleCore 2LP1CD
320 kbps

Secret Messages is the tenth studio album by Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), released in 1983 on Jet Records. It was the last ELO album with bass guitarist Kelly Groucutt, conductor Louis Clark and real stringed instruments, and the last ELO album to be released on the Jet label. It was also the final ELO studio album to become a worldwide hit upon release.

The record was originally going to be a double album, but this plan was thwarted by Jet's distributor, CBS Records, claiming that producing a double vinyl album would be too expensive; as a result, leader Jeff Lynne would have to reduce it to a single album. The double album version of the album was digitally recorded and would have been ELO's first compact disc.

So, here you have the double album as Jeff intended it. The 'Hello Old Friend' is here with the outro which is after 'Rock 'n' Roll Is King' on the original released album. It has the rare track 'Beatled Forever'. It's the only track which has less soundquality but hey, it's ultra rare.

Harry Nilsson - Rare Harry DVD 1

4,5 Gb DVD.
I received the discs thru a friend. I didn't compile them and I don't know who did neither but he or she did a great job. I provide the information as I received it.

This new set of DVDs will provide a significant upgrade to much of this material in terms of presentation, source material and audio and video quality and clarity.

This is the 1st of four discs (3 volumes plus a disc of bonus material).

The details for Disc 1:

Beat Club: Everybody's Talking
Derek Taylor intro
The Music of Nilsson
The Smothers Brothers Summer Show
Playboy After Dark
Skidoo Trailer

- Notes:
- The Playboy clip has been edited together from two different sources to present the material in its complete form and in the best available quality.
- The Music of Nilsson (aka the first BBC show) is from a brand-new source and has been subject to full audio restoration. After this, no-one will feel the need to mourn the lack of an official release of this or the LTOSITN telecast.

Violinsky - No Cause For Alarm


©1979 JET LP 219/EPIC 47.209
320 Kbps Vinyl rip

Violinski were formed in 1977 by Mik Kaminski, John Hodgson and John Marcangelo and were originally promoted by Jet Records as an offshoot of the Electric Light Orchestra. The band could have achieved major-league status and more hits than their 200,000-selling debut single 'Clog Dance' if they only had been supported a little bit more by Jet Records.

That first single aside, Violinski releases suffered poor distribution and were quickly deleted to become instant collectors' items.

Tracklist: A1 Cricket, Bloody Cricket / A2 (More Than A) Sudden Romance / A3 Rosanna / A4 Need Your Love / A5 No Cause For Alarm / A6 Clog Dance / B1 Save Me / B2 Time To Live / B3 Cow Caped Crusader / B4 Die Aband Glocke
