Hi:

I've just received an e-mail notification from http://www.cdzone.co.uk that an album called 'Vanessa Mae' is now in stores..

It is imported from Niederlands.. and well the track listing is the same as the one in amazon.com....

regards,

Jafit

Hmm that is strange

Why would they release another CD with previous songs on it?

It is just a way for EMI to keep on making money out of our girl. EMI can not release a cd with new music because Vanessa-Mae is not signed anymore to EMI. So they make a kind of best of album with oldies.

Hmm...so I suppose it isnt worth me getting it then?

Unless you want to have all official releases in your collection, like I do!

If I do end up getting it, Im getting it last...

You'd think that if they wanted to make money, they would release Storm World Tour

Rijko, have you gotten the album yet? Im curious to see what its like

Thanks, for the note.
A compilation album (with songs from The violin player & Storm).

Someone has bought it.
Review, by: P. Garbutt "strangeparadise".

"This is just another compilation album for those of you fans perhaps wondering what it contains in the way of tracks,its simply tracks from her first two EMI albums only,"the violin player" and "storm",nothing new,not the long awaited next album we have all been waiting for since 2004!"

No I do not have it yet. I just ordered. I will let you all know my findings a soon as I have received it.

OK, I received the cd today via amazon.co.uk.

Here are scans form the booklet and the disc. For large scale images visit my Recent colleaction acquisitions

As I only found out quite recently, Disky Communications Europe released a new collection cd titled 'Vanessa-Mae' in license from EMI Records on June 1, 2006. The track listing with titles from Vanessa-Mae's albums 'The Violin Player,' The Classical Collection 1' and 'Storm' is as follows:

1 - Red Hot Symphonic
2 - Widescreen
3- City Theme
4 - A Poets Quest
5 - Bach Street Prelude
6 - Contradanza
7 - Aurora
8 - I Am A Doun
9 - Summer Haze
10 - The Blessed Spirit
11 - Theme From Caravans
12 - Tequila Mocking Bird
13 - Jazz will Eat Itself
14 - Warm Air

There is nothing new on this album, but neverthless I consider it as a 'must have' in my collection. A photo of Vanessa-Mae at the free concert for promotion of 'Subject To change' on Trafalgar Square on May 15, 2001 was used for the cover of this compilation.

Hmm. The CD looks nice enough. I guess I'll have to get it eventually

Thanks for the pictures Rijko!

Someone should remind EMI that in 2000 they released the Classical Collection "Part 1".

Xanthippe · Post by **Xanthippe** » Mon Oct 02, 2006 3:20 am

ETMI did the release of the Classical Collection part 1 in special license from Vanessa-Mae. This was a one time release; EMI does not have the copyrights on Vanessa-Mae's kiddy recordings.

Yes, but my point was that if there was a Part 1 there was an intention implied for a Part 2 to follow.
