Planet Earth Guitar The One U Wanna C Somewhere Here On Earth Satisfied Musicology 3121 Get On The Boat Black Sweat Lolita Chelsea Rodgers None of these were performed each time or nearly each time. Actually Guitar, Musicology and Black Sweat were performed on nearly every night of the 21. Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. |

whitesockedfunk said: I don't see the point of these re-issues, apart from maybe the "Sheila E" album which is pretty hard to come by on cd. Romance 1600 is still in print in Europe and widely available as an import in the USA and Sex Cymbal and Pandemonium can be bought on ebay for only a few bucks... What the world needs now, though, is a Best Of Sheila E cd, remastered with insightful liner notes and the odd non album track thrown in for good measure.
BTW, Amazon usually lists if albums are remastered or not and from what I can tell, all of Rhino Encore's cds are just plain re-releases without remastering or bonus tracks. Hmm, makes you wish Wounded Bird got to release these albums, they usually do a fine job at remastering (the Chic back catalog for instance), although the cd booklets are plain 4 page ones and not the original more expansive ones. Or maybe DJ Foefur (if you are listening...) can work his remastering-magic on Sheila's back catalog??? I'm with you !  None of the B-sides??    She, seemingly, had an unreleased track on the back of every single.
In her honor, I posted "Too Sexy" (B-side for the Belle of St. Mark) on my MySpace player.

I finally ordered my copies on-line.I ordered two Sheila E. CDs...
"Romance 1600" "Sheila E." amazingly,I never had either of those albums on CD.I just had them on vinyl.I'm glad these albums have been re-issued.The self-titled 'Sheila E' album is one of my FAVORITES....her best album,without a doubt. These reissues are cheap too.Only $11.99. | |

Thanks for the heads up.I'm glad that I just ordered my copies now. | |

I agree!! It's a damn shame that there isn't a Sheila E. compilation on the market right now.She and The Time are two Prince protege acts who lasted beyond one album.They've had more than one hit.Sheila E. deserves a really good,thorough,remastered 'Best Of' CD with all the hits,key album tracks and a few rare bonus songs thrown in for good measure (how about the circulating bootleg track "Girl Power"?).Or even the fiery instrumental jam "Too Sexy". Warners,are you listening??  | |

VinnyM27 said: SoulAlive said:  that would be GREAT! Mazarati and Apollonia 6 are two Paisley-related albums that I really want to have on CD.I wonder what is keeping those from being reissued. I'm sure there is much more interest in seeing those available as legal and affordable CDs/downloads. I would say Prince, but take a look at these releases. Both of those albums sold poorly when they were originally released,so that could have something to do with it.I really wish they would just reissue these CDs anyway. | |
