The Ladder

the complete LA 88 soundcheck version??? dare to dream...

Gald to see this rarity finally released from the vault. Purple Picks are working out way better than I ever hoped.

Amazing song.. made me put on the ATWIAD vinyl, listening now..

Is it the same as the album version ?

Yep. Tidal just links you to a web page with a snippet of the album track. To actually listen to it you need to go to the album on Tidal and click to play it. Unless I've missed some obvious way to play it directly from the purple pick tile?

Yea, that aspect of it is pretty annoying... doesn't make sense to not take you directly to the whole song?

Is this the first new Purple Pick since "If Eye Could Get Ur Attention" or have I missed anything?

He could have made this really special, releasing a few new songs (which he has), a few live tracks and a couple of old out takes. Even if he had released songs that we've all had for years with pristine sound he would have made fans really happy. And yet, he's just given another step into alienating the 20.000 or so people who still listen to his new stuff..

To be honest it feels more and more like he does this on purpose, he knows how disappointed most of us are with the purple picks and e probably loves it

Looks like the pattern is 'something new' every 4th of 5th week. Could mean we get something nice next Monday. But I wouldn't bet my money on it..

As I renewed my Tidal subscription with the Black Friday offer (4 months for the price of 1) I can only hope to hear a couple of songs from the vault.

He does seem to enjoy teasing and winding the fans up and thinks 'ya'll aint ready' for the good stuff.

.

It's another one to add to the list of 'missed opportunity' as like you say it could have been really special.

Please copy and paste the complete list and update it on your original post, or new picks will be lost in a maze of comments Thx.
