Exodus and The Gold Experience -- if you were going to combine these two albums

.

Exodus and The Gold Experience

.

If you were going to combine these two albums and rearrange the order of the songs

.

How would you do it?

I did this once before with Bob Dylan.

.

I combined the albums Blonde on Blonde with Bringing It All Home, and I rearranged the order of the songs.

.

I was very happy with the end result.

.

I want to do the same thing with Exodus and The Gold Experience, but I am experiencing a block.

I wouldn't. Leave The Gold Experience alone.

.
Off the top of my head...

NPG Operator Intro
Get Wild
Endorphinmachine
Shhh
Count The Days
The Good Life
TMBGIW Mustang Mix
Big Fun
Now
Dolphin
Hallucination Rain
Billy Jack Bitch
I Hate U
Gold
The Exodus Has Begun

Exodus, minus a couple of tracks, and all the segues would make a better tag-on EP to TGE. Also, I've already removed "Shy" from my playlist, and re-segued the tracks before and after so they flow more naturally. I can't stand that song.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

I know that many will not agree with me but if I was going to change The Gold Experience, I would take out TMBGITW, Dolphin and Gold, and put in NPG Burn Rush the Ship.

.

On Exodus I would go straight from Hallution Rain to The Exodus Has Begun.

I'll give you TMBGIW and Gold but come on Dolphin has to stay! The semi-trippy bit at the end would flow quite well into Hallucination Rain.

.

Curious why would you put that segue (NPG Bum Rush The Ship) in?

If you take all the skits and segues off Exodus, you have very little left.

.

The golden Exodus... by the New Power Generation featuring special guest stars, The Artist Formerly known as Prince and Toratora

.

Endorphinmachine

Get Wild

Shh!

Billy Jack Bitch

Count the days motherfucker

Cherry Cherry

I hate u

The Exodus Has begun

Poorgoo

Halluncination rain

Shy

319

Zannalee

Now

Dolphin

The Good Life

Gold

Days of Wild

.

Rest are crap and TMBGITW is good but felt did not fit the feel of this albu. Days of Wild needs to stay on too. Poorgoo and Zannalee are there as they complement the set

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

I like the segue (NPG Bum Rush The Ship) and I think I would put it after pussy control

.

I really don't like the following line in Dolphin;

.

'You can cut off all my fins
But to your ways I will not bend'

.

The image of a dolphin with all it's fins cut off, kinda ruins the song for me.

.

I will try it out with Hallucination Rain though.

.

I agree with Trivial pursuit about the song Shy.

.

I like it but it is definitely doesn't fit in with the other songs on TGE.

.

Maybe it could go on the Come album.

Just had a quick listen...you're right it goes perfectly, can't believe I hadn't got onto that over all these years!

Nice work Your Majesty
