An imaginary John Lennon solo album from 1968 that I created a while ago.

Not different enough for me to include it. The version of All Down The Line is much different than the released version and was the b-side of Plundered My Soul. You can go down the rabbit hole and include all of the different edits and live cuts as well but I wanted to keep it to a single disc.

Understandable. Good disc, John.

 

Oh god, I am doing this kind of thing all the time!

Really impressed with some of the examples posted by people here.

 

There is actually a 2 disc bootleg which contains all of the live single b-sides and the bonus tracks from the Japanese cd releases from 1971 going forward. It is called something like Legal Live Tracks.

 

I compiled one for Nazareth as well but I did not include any live tracks as I recall.

 

They're a necessity IMO as that Snaz is a monster!

I actually thought it would have been better if they would have released a live album earlier.

EG.

 

I remain proud of the the cassette I gave to all my indoor soccer players from 1994-96. If you clicked through, you would see the hazard I created when I composed the cassette: I went to 89 minutes. "See My Baby Jive" ended 10 seconds before the tape ran out of that side. I nailed it. I would have needed to limit myself to 78 minutes if I wanted to make this a CD(-R).
I pressed{?} 100 cassettes of this in 1997. I went through 70 players, on a 16-man roster. I think I've gotten all the copies to my ex's by 2019. If I haven't, I await a reply from those I somehow missed. But that means I have copies extant if anyone else is interested in trading for stuff. Of the songs included thereupon, "Love You Inside Out" is the song which cuts closest to my id. I could cry to it.

I fudged the chronology a bit by putting 2014's "Hope for the Future" at the end, but I think it's a much better note to end the set on than "Despite Repeated Warnings" (which I love, but is a downer).

 

I'm currently working on a mega McCartney set myself! It'll be either 9 or 10 discs.

EG.

 

Mine started as a three-disc set, but I was having a really hard time eliminating or excluding certain songs. He’s been so prolific even in his sixties and seventies that even his material from this century has its own disc on my set (which wasn’t something I did on purpose; it just happened).

 

Paul's Forgotten '80s

5 discs, 100 tracks.

 

An amazing set, which prompted my own riposte...but I still haven't figured out my final disc!

EG.
