So after thinking about it I still have a big question that I would like to hear Chad's thoughts on. If there were so many tracks cut and demo that they really liked why did they not include many of them on "V"? They obv liked many tracks that were cut from TDTH that would have fit onto the vibe of "V". New City, Still Aroused, and Dont Wait we know of. What about Transmission, a new one we have just found out about? Apparantly it was a favorite of the band according to Chad. With so many great songs that were not released and the crazy way that "V" was made that would have been a perfect album for some of them and as well as BOP. I know Sweet Release was an outtake of V so that lived on. BOP definately had a different feel too so that makes since to me but not "V".

The only conclusion I can think of is the record company wanted the new material to be released. Anyone else have any thoughts?

Are those Ecstactic Fanatic covers the real thing?

(Photoshop )

But that is the actual painting he was talking about wasen't it? If so then it would have been close since thats the classic LIVE logo they used for V. I think it would have been very close to what you see hear as long as thats the real painting Chad mentioned!

I simply did a quick google image search for Peter Howson and picked out the two "orgy-esque" paintings I found - I'd say it's most likely one of these...

Ed should do this same thing, but chronologize his hair styles.

yeah, pretty cool! I like how the way they wrote Public Affection on the casette (with the low 'e'' and the 'c' higher, ended up in the actual logo of the artwork.

Would be nice to hear those songs!

many say that several tracks on V are TDTH-outtakes, only recorded and produced again (maybe) in a V-style. So I tghink it's not that they haven't done that. I still don't know which tracks are from TDTH. Overcome (duhh), but aside from that?

One of the gaps Chad's blog isnt filling too is where Radiant Sea and Beautiful Invisible must be scheduled? I know some fans stated earlier the band told them they are V outtakes (so one of the many tracks Chad's taking about that were so 'spontaneous'?). To me RS sound REALLY TDTH-ish (although maybe produced in the V-era) and BI sound REALLY V-sih.

Funny you should mention that because this came up once before in a meet in greet and I was told that Hero of Love was written for TDTH by the all knowing Jimmy Lang. Dont know if it was recorded differently or what but that could be one of the 35 outtakes of TDTH.

I also remember the band debuting Nobody Knows and Call Me A Fool which was titled as Fool of Love then on the TDTH tour. These I think were written during the tour but its possible they could have been TDTH outtake as well.
