Does anyone own the Import Single of Lighthouse's Tale?

[Mostlydead]

subject says it all.

[NCFan4Ever]

yep. it's awesome.

[Jason13]

yup, I do... I love it. I have a 3-disc changer and had Nickel Creek, Lighthouse's tale, and This Side CD's playing on random today, it was cool to hear their progression mixed together

[Mostlydead]

What all is on it? why is it an enhanced cd?

[Jimmie]

It has the edited version of Lighthouse Tale. It's pretty severely edited, too.

The CDROM portion of the disk has the Lighthouse Tale video. Same edit, but much worse sound quality. Nice video, though.

It also has two live cuts. The Fox and Let It Fall.

The Fox is one of the tamer versions. It's only about five minutes long and doesn't have many of the meandering solos that they usually work into it.

Let It Fall is notable mostly because it lets you hear Sean sing the song himself.

The sound quality of the live cuts is mediocre. I've heard much better live tracks of these guys.

I bought it because I wanted to be able to use a live version of The Fox on the air.

Jimmie pretty much said it all. I have it and,while it has its downsides, it is well worth having to me for the live versions of The Fox and Let It Fall.

[Taipan]

I think the version of Let It Fall is better than the one on the album. And The Fox does get a bit samey after a while but hey, I've never regretted buying it.

I just got the CD and absolutely LOVE it! I'm really happy to have Let it Fall with Sean singing it instead of Glen Philips(not that he does a bad job, I just like Sean singing it) and I love the Fox, it's one of my fav songs and I love having the live version of it, with some extra, but definitly not like they do in concert. I also like having the video on CD, it will last longer. I wish they would come out with a CD that has all of their videos on it, like re-release an enhanced version of Nickel Creek and This Side.
All in all, it was a great buy and everyone should get it!

Where can we buy this enhanced CD? I've never heard of it till now.

[sap2257]

I got mine from Amazon. the CD is called- Nickel Creek The Lighthouse's Tale.
It's really awesome it has:
The Lighthouse's Tale (radio edit)
The Fox (live-awesome!)
Let it Fall (live with Sean singing)
and the lighthouse's tale video

I think it was like $12 or something. definitly a good buy in my book

[flutegrl71]

what's the difference in the radio editing vs the original Lighthouse's Tale?

[sap2257]

They trimmed about a minute off of it by taking some of the instrumentals out of it. They didn't take them out, just cut them back, like at the beginning, it basically starts into the singing within a few seconds instead of the longer instrumental.

I do not own it... yet. I've put it on my birthday list. So hopefully, it'll be there for me Sunday, May the 4th. :) You have to special order it, so I *hope* it's still available!


By the way- is the edit of The Lighthouses Tale the version that they have for the video?

[sap2257]

yeah the video is the same one you see on TV. and it will be there Okie, I just ordered mine a couple of weeks ago, so your good! :D
