What happened to the live Musicology track?

I thought it was supposed to be on the Cinnamon Girl single. What happened? Is there a different version out there than the one we know with it cos i was really looking forward to hearing it.

go to NPGMC.com's retail section and you'll see there's a domestic single and an import single - the import version is the one you want. the domestic single just has a bunch of enhanced stuff like interviews with the director and lyrics...which, if you're a big fan of the video, could be cool i s'pose.

i don't think so...if you look in NPGMC retail's "ahdio" section, you'll see the 4.99 'enhanced' version offered just above the 7.77 'import' version, which is the one i think you're looking for.

No. I just looked again and all i see is the enhanced 5.99 version at the very top of the page. Could you please check yourself to confirm whether i'm going blind. Thanks!

All I know is, I've checked twice today and I could find it. The URL I posted takes me right to the item. I don't know what's going on at your end, but absent coming over and having you scoot over at the computer, I dunno what else I can do for ya! sad

But I know they have it in stock - I ordered a copy from them not long ago, and I received it in the mail. If nothing else, e-mail NPGMC and let them know you're having trouble finding the item. Hopefully they can help you. Or maybe it's a members-only offer, I dunno. shrug

Thanks for all your help Anxiety. I've just spoke to a friend of mine (this has been the highlight of my day finding out this exists by the way) and he told me Amazon.com have it imported so i'll check there. The only thing i can think of as to why i can't find it on NPGMC is that i'm in the UK. Thanks again.

A warning, though... I don't think any of the versions have the live Musicology track - all the non-US versions have Cinnamon Girl, Dear Mr. Man (Live), US of D, and Dear Mr. Man (Live video).

I'd also read earlier this year that the single would contain Musicology (Live from Webster Hall), but this never seemed to appear... Strange.

You can find a video download of Musicology (Live from Much More Music) at the NPGMC Musicology store, along with two other tracks (Kiss and DMSR) for $2.99 (non-member price) / $2.49 (member price). Windows Media Player is able to burn these to CDR as audio-tracks if you prefer...

Just checked Amazon and they have an import Cinnamon Girl single that says it has Dear Mr. Man and Musicology live tracks on it. Is that it? They couldn't have made a mistake could they? cos i want this bad and don't want the USOD version again.

AHHHHH, there we go. Yeah - it is an offer for US NPGMC folks only, their reason being (from my understanding, anyway) that it's harder to find over here than it is over there.

"Harder to find for you." What the fuck! I wasn't even certain it existed eek . Anyway it looks like Amazon's the place to go. Thanks guys for all the help.

Please let me know if this works - the Amazon page has such scant information, that I'm not sure it really exists. If it does, I'd be interested in a copy myself. I have a feeling you'll either be sent the regular European version, or they'll send you an e-mail saying this item can't be processed.

But did it have Musicology live also, or just Dear Mr. Man?

Have you seen the item i mean on Amazon Booyah? What do you think? It does say Musicology live doesn't it. The version GoldiesParade's talking about could be the other version Amazon have for sale; they don't mention any tracklsiting for it but it's probably the European version with the video.
