I have this bootleg and it states these are how the tracks sounded before Arista got involved. So do these tracks feature Milton McDonald and Julian Colbeck or do these tracks just feature ABWH? I really like the stripped down version of Quartet until the last section. It's a very interesting listen all around - kinda glad that Distant Thunder is not on the official release though. So what's the true story about this boot?...chris :-)

I used to have this until one day I pulled it out of the case to play it only to discover the disc had cracked and some of the glue had run onto the playing surface. Fortunately, I had already imported it into iTunes. I have had a lookout for it on eBay ever since but no joy.

Can't tell you anything about it unfortunately, other than a mutation of Distant Thunder showing up on Keys 2 as Children Of Light.

I also would like to hear that!
I'm always interested in pre-versions and demos of the band.

I posted this message at the time when I didn't have the album. Vultures in the City is the B-side of the Brother of Mine single, great track! Very sad they didn't include it in the ABWH album.

I have it and I don't find it very interesting. The versions are not that different from the final release. The most interesting track was Distant thunder who indeed evolved into KTA's Children of the Light.

Oh yeah i know it was from the Bother Of Mine Single but i was wondering if there were like any early/alternate/demo versions of the song(Vultures in the City)?
