Re: The Promise IS spoken!
Excellent! Big pressies are great for occasions if the timing's right but otherwise I say get it or give it and enjoy it!

Re: The Promise IS spoken!
Thanks Kirk! I got them ok. I havent had chance to watch them yet. i used to have the classic 78 d.v.d.but think I gave it away .thinking I had 2 copies. Thanks for the c.d as well. Don.t think I.ll ever get sick of houston et al. :p Although I.ve only watched d.v.ds once. Oh and some of houston twice. Finally got round to listening to darkness remastered today. Need to give outakes another listen as well. Thanks again.

When I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know they'd never match

Something's open it's my heart
If something's missing it's when we're apart
If something's good it's when we're back together again
Nothing's wrong it's just insane
Nothing's right until you're back again.

Re: The Promise IS spoken!
You may want to see if your local branch of The Works has a copy of this. I got the last one in Cwmbran, a bargain at £4-99.

Re: The Promise IS spoken!
I downloaded the Promise onto my Ipod and played it from start to finish for the first time. Absolutely loved disc one, a masterpiece in my opinion! I thought disc 2 was good, but didn't feel that the songs flowed as well as the first disc. Will have to give it another listen! Loved the live gig DVD too, and this is the best version of Racing I have ever heard!

Re: The Promise IS spoken!
I like the Racing version too - some fantastic violin on it from David Lindley.
The whole album is a great collection of songs from the time I started listening to Bruce - old favourites like Racing, BTN, Fire and Rendezvous with other songs I've not heard before
