Eddie Hazel's "Games Thangs and Guitar Thangs" to be re-released on CD

http://www.newfunktimes.c...=0&thold=0


Eddie Hazel's 1977 solo album "Game, Dames and Guitar Thangs" finally is out on CD. If you want to buy the Rhino Handmade release at Amazon, you'll have to wait until September 7, 2004. There was an auction of advance copies at eBay which has ended prematurely, but you can check the auction page for album details. We'll let you know in case additional copies appear on eBay or on Rhino Handmade's website.

Here's the track list, according to the eBay seller (with additional info from the Motherpage):

1) California Dreamin' {John Phillips, Michelle Phillips} 6:16
2) Frantic Moment {G Clinton, W Collins, B Worrell} 3:42
3) So Goes The Story {G Clinton, W Collins} 3:55
4) I Want You (She's So Heavy) {John Lennon, Paul McCartney} 9:25
5) Physical Love {W Collins, G Clinton, Gary Cooper, Garry Shider} 5:32
6) What About It? {Eddie Hazel, G Clinton} 3:46
7) California Dreamin' (reprise) {J Phillips, M Phillips} 1:30

The CD also contains extra tracks which were previously available on the EP "Jams From the Heart":

8) Smedley Smorganoff
9) Lampoc Boogie
10) From the Bottom of my Soul
11) Uncut Funk

Thanks to NFT.com member timmyfunk1 (Groove Maneuvers Archives) for sending us the initial info on the eBay auction!

Man, I debated for years whether to pay that much for the original. I knew if I held out long enough, it'd get a CD release. 2004 is my year: Superfly on DVD, Prince re-issues on DVD, Eddie Hazel and Syreeta re-issues dancing jig

It appears the cheapest on-line retailer so far is CDuniverse.com . I think I'll buy it from them.

This is cool, I payed almost $60 bucks for the vinyl and my ex paid $91 bucks for hers. The CD release wont effect the value of the vinyl since it's still out of print, knowing Rhino, it should have some cool photos with liner notes!

Yeah, cool. I've had my album for oh, 15, 16 years. It's still in good shape though. Although I wore out "Frantic Moment'. I'll be getting my cd.
