King of New Jersey
------------------
Bootleggers probably like this title very much. There is a second release in Taiwan with the same title but with a totally different front/back cover
Sting - King of New Jersey 1CD ABS 2004 15 tracks
front sleeve is like A perfect night in Houston, Sting sitting in a chair.
Here are the other King of New Jersey's again,
KING OF NEW JERSEY
East Rutherford "Byrne Arena" 26/2/1994 / 1CD/ E.D.L. EDST-001
East Rutherford "Byrne Arena" 26/2/1994 / 1CD/ Taiwan bootleg ABS 2004 made in Australia
Desert Rose
-----------
Desert Rose still hasn't been released here in Holland, very strange cause it was announced for January 18th. Anyway Japan release did come in but not with the Japanese rap as promised earlier by A&M.
Radio Edit) / (Melodic Club Mix) / (Melodic Club Mix Radio Edit) / Brand New Day (Murlyn Mix) / Brand New Day (CD-Rom Video) Japan POCM 1290
The Japanese rap could have been interesting !
Mexico is getting an award for the sleeves, not that they are always the best to have, but most of them are different. The Mexican promo for Desert Rose comes with 2 other bands.
Mexico - Desert Rose album version/remix (4.44) plus Sheryl Crow 1 track / Live 1 track
A&M cdp 452-2
Comes in a paper sleeve, front and back split in 4 pieces, 50% is Sting.
Youssou N'dour new album
------------------------
I mentioned this about 7 months ago already and finally here it is:
Youssou N'dour - Joko COL 4897182
Sting is singing on one track called "Don't walk away". I must say that the song is oke but sting's contribution to the album or even the song doesn't make the album better.
Russian releases
----------------
Everything is still going strong overthere in Russia, only 3 new releases, they must have had a holiday or so....
Sting - Super best '99 Gala Music GMBH 15 tracks
Sting - PC Music (no label) 4 albums in MPEG format (fields/cages/tales/turtles)
Sting - Star Profile All Star Music LTD 16 tracks
All have full colour picture sleeves and a silver cd's, no cdr's.
Japan sampler promo
--------------------
The Polydor sampler promo from Japan of September 1999 is something to have. It has on the sngle BND track on it plus a bunch of other artists but the cover of this release is the most interesting part. It has a full picture of Sting, a photo taken a the elevator session for BND but different than the one used for the fron cover of BND. Just interesting I guess.
Polydor sampler september 1999 , 15 tracks 4dcp-3058
