Very important question regarding United Artists' Collection

[ricky Jay]

First off: I do have the CD "Lightfoot!/The Way I Feel" which is a fused album of the first 2 studio releases. I do have that covered.

I was contemplating the purchase of "Did She Mention My Name/Back Here On Earth (Beat Goes On)" but this cost $14.48, whereas the UNITED ARTISTS collection (which is a compilation of all of his first 4 releases) costs $7.85. I could save practically twice as much money if I got this instead.

Even though I would be getting part of what I already have if I bought the United Artists Collection, I would be saving money. I'm just curious if the United Artists Collection has lyrics in the album. If it does not, then I will end up getting the "Did She Mention My Name/Back Here On Earth (Beat Goes On)", but if United Artists DOES, then I will DEFINITELY choose the latter.

Don't know about others' United Artists Collection(s) but mine did NOT come with lyrics. However, by now...I know the words anyhow!! If you're really interested in saving money you could always buy the UA Collection and print the lyrics from this site. At least I imagine it's OK to do that.

Thank you Sheila for telling me this; as a matter of fact, that makes me actually WONDER though if I should think about exactly HOW I want to purchase this!

Does "Did She Mention My Name/Back Here On Earth (Beat Goes On)" have lyrics in the liner notes though?

I know I could print it, but a part of me would love the lyrics to be in the liner notes instead, but if it isn't present THERE either, I'll deal.

I don't know if te BGO reissiues are remastered. My UA copies aren't. I wouldn't hesitate to pay $15 for a 2fer. Especially a GL 2fer. If you don't have the extra $7, I guess you'll just have to cash in those Milli Vanilli CD's.
