Magic Streets

This might be a shiatty question (especially in the era of Internet Pirates!), but I bought the British version of the Sheds One-Hand Clapping (as soon as it came out!), and just recently found out that there is a Japanese version that has extra tracks on it.

Is there a way to get my grubby little hands on just the additional tracks without buying the CD again? Does anyone have these on MP3 they could slide to me? I think they're the alt. versions of Cry For Help, Chasing Rainbows, Feathers, Thinking Again?

I hate it when record companys rip off the fans. There has been times when they bring out best ofs then stick maybe 2 unreleased tracks on the end. You have to buy the albums for the unreleased tracks.

If you send me a picture of your cd to prove you have purchased the original. I will send you the acoustic tracks off the album. NOTE **** I do not condone piracy and will not be publishing these tracks out on the web.

Thanks Siv, but I was set up okay.

I found out that the reason that there are Japanese bonus tracks is because import CD's in Japan are almost prohibitively expensive, so bands/record companies add bonus tracks to make them more inviting for Japanese consumers...

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a link where I can buy this? I had a link before the reunion, but can't find it!

You could try CDJapan - they have loads of stuff and I've ordered stuff off them before and it's arrived fine! Otherwise try going through Blue Apple Music who may be able to help.

For those who do want these acoustic tracks, they were originally released as a Promo CD that was sent to radio stations around 2001. I've seen them pop up on eBay a few times - they are the same tracks. That said, the included booklet in the Japanese version is much nicer, includes the lyrics etc...
