Lotusflow3r I think I've got it sussed.

OK so I think I've got it now...

Ya see I really don't like most of the 3 albums but I've managed 2 come up with a one disc alternative.

What I've done is dumped the ones I really didn't like and kept the ones I thought
were cool and then arranged them so they flow a little better and I've finally got
an album I like.

So here's my shiny new track list, try it out see what U think. smile

1- From The Lotus
2- Dreamer
3- Feel Better, Feel Good, Feel Wonderful
4- Colonized Mind
5- Crimson & Clover
6- Boom
7- $
8- Dance 4 Me
9- Wall Of Berlin
10- Lotus Radio (Segue)
11- 4Ever
12- F.U.N.K.
13- Ol' Skool Company
14- No More Candy 4 U
15- Back 2 The Lotus

I've been listening to this tracklist over the weekend and I love it. smile

There are alredy a bunch of threads where people are suggesting their alternate tracklists. Couldnt' you have added this to one of those?

What's Lotus Radio?

I would have agreed with you about this set list five years ago, but I think there's a reason why he didn't make just one disc (besides the fact that he records a lot) - remember that he's a Gemini, so these could be yet more representations of both sides of him.

Yes but the search engine on this site is crap and I couldn't find any. Beside this one is special cuz I made it so it deserves it's own thread (Read the sig. lol).

"Lotus Radio" is the DJ announcement from the stereo on the Lotusflow3r.com front page. It works pretty well as a segue. smile

This is the best of the handful of "resequences" I've seen on the Org to this point. nod It pushes "Dreamer" to the front as the "proper" album opener, which I feel is a brilliantly effective placement.

I think I would move "No More Candy 4 U" up a few spots (behind "Dance 4 Me, perhaps?), and maybe move "4Ever" down to right before "Back to the Lotus" (I think "4Ever" would be oddly effective as the "proper" closing track before the outro). Oh, and keep "Boom" before "C&C", maintaining the nice flow of those two, as it is on the official release. Other than that, this is a great sequence with the strongest opening and the best overall "flow" that I've seen. clapping

I still have never heard "F.U.N.K." so I don't know if I would keep its spot or move it? shrug
