RSD 2024 EP The Boy

[Love Expresso]

May I ask if it is possible to create an own board for "The Boy" with single threads for all four tracks?  At least to me, it it a release on its own, apart from coming from the same sessions, there is no other relation to One Deep River. 

What all these four songs have in common, they are much more "elaborated", much more composed, much more the usual MK so to say. I am sure there is much to talk about.

LE

I say just create single threads rather than a whole new board. They are all from the ODR sessions.

Fourth time trying to post it here, hope it won't vanish AGAIN

I think it is worth to discuss. This is an own release, artistically and musicalwise, it has nothing to do with ODR. Boards are made for releases, not for sessions. I would go for an own board, because how would you number them otherwise? 21 to 25? That just don't feel right to me. Folks?

I personally would but I clearly don’t care about this as much as you do.

Haha thanks Dutchessy & Marnix! Ok, so apart from this new EP (& the ODR bonus songs) is there anything not available on Spotify?

Honky Tonk Demos

And also the German Tracker bonustrack “Hot dog” is not on Spotify and also not included in the second Studio albums 2009-2018 box

Indeed, probably one of the most hidden MK tracks ever. Never understood why they only released it on German discs. On the day of the release, I drove the entire 20kms to Germany to get a copy but I hardly play it.

Even the German Amazon download “Your perfect song” was included

I like how AMIT brings us all Knopfler aficionados together as a family and we feel free to express ourselves without any reservations, without the fear of being misunderstood or  mocked upon our, otherwise,  irrational obsession with MK and his releases. And how I forget my other really serious everyday  issues, while doing it. A side-note, we must always remember:  all these special releases and different versions of releases by music artists, including MK, are simply marketing strategies, to get people like us to spend more by buying multiple copies, of pretty much the same product, at the initial retail price. I  don't want to admit that marketing tactics work so well, but then again this must be all the proof needed.

LE,

Threads created for the four EP tracks - hopefully they can be put into an appropriate folder at some point...

Great to have the threads. These were from the same sessions and as I understand it the themes was only identified later. I'm happy with these on the same ODR page, I think of them as 22, 23, 24 and 25!

At least we now have threads for them, whether they end up in a separate,  designated folder remains to be seen...

It’s a lovely day! Would be great to chat with any AMIT members with over 50 posts, feel free to send me a PM

203. Hello.

[kaleo74]

Ohh BOY! At last, arrangements, lyrics and music that make you forget where you are, what a beauty these four songs are.

[koobaa]

Indeed. Classy songs and beautifully arranged.  Even the simple acoustic driven The Boy is taken to another level.  All Comers is an instant classic.
