RE: A Bootleg

Post by CarrollTowerCX »

Hello Boys & Girls,

Here is another item that I received yesterday. It came to me from Switzerland, but I am sure it is a Bootleg. I bought it because I like the cover photo. The product itself is very well made and printed, It is quite a nice item. I did not know much about it, since there was not any detailed description.

I have played several short cuts of disk 3. The actual music on disk 3 is different that what is listed in the enclosed booklet. In the next few days I will play all 3 disks and compare the recorded music with the printed track list.

It has a very nice, heavy gauge paper booklet. The first half of which is devoted exclusively to high class perfume advertisements. The second half shows well produced photos of Vanessa-Mae. I am enclosing downloads of the photo pages.One or two of the photos are unfamiliar to me. I hope these will be of interest to you.

The cover photo comes from a series made for the FHM (For Him Magazine) in 2001. FHM has various regional editions for different parts of the world. The most extensive article with most photos was in the Singaporean edition of FHM of July 2001. This was in the time of the release of Vanessa-Mae's album Subject To Change. Most of the other photos were taken from the Subject To Change booklet.

The cover photo is very spicy. Zoom in and you know what I mean.

Xanthippe,

Thank you for the information on the origin of the photos. They are nicely reproduced. I know that I should not buy bootlegs, but this one looked so nice. I wish Vanessa would start recording, then I and everyone else would have something real to buy and listen to!

ps; the cover photo is indeed very daring, but the most daring of all are the photos that appear on her album "Vanessa-Mae, Greatest Hits"...cx

Erzeta,

Thanks, I am just happy that it is still possible to find new Vanessa-Mae items and photos at this late date. It encourages me to keep looking.

Kristen,

I am retiring from my job of 48 years in a few weeks, and then I will have plenty of time to research and hunt for new material on our Violin Princess, Vanessa-Mae.
