It'll either come out or it won't. If it doesn't, I won't buy it. if it does, I will. The only person who seems to want this not to come out, and wants us not to have the option of even hearing it, is Hooky - on the basis of what has been said. They should whack his parts off and get Tom to add new ones. That'll give Captain Bloody Obstructive something new to talk about in his inevitable interviews. He left the band and is now actively stopping the band releasing material.

not saying this would ever happen..

but simple minds had an album that the
record company didn't want to support.
and kept getting delayed and cancelled.

it was to be their 12th studio album.

'our secrets are the same'..
(which finally got released on a box set)

so what happened was a radio station in
spain decided to broadcast all the tracks.
of course they were recorded by fans, and
distributed as mp3's, and spread across the
web.

of course, unless someone gets their hands
on a promo, or pre-release. i doubt it will
get out... but you never know..

i remember getting crystal, and 60mph way
before they were released... no one believed
me then either, until they heard the edits..

later
