Dead Ringer For Love - Another new album

Kev · 31 Mar 2008, 16:20

Meat Loaf - Dead Ringer For Love (The Meat Loaf Collection) is due out on 5th May 2008.

LucyK! · 31 Mar 2008, 16:27

Oh fabulous, another compilation album we'll dicuss whether to spend money on or not and then not have to buy because it won't appear!

Excuse my sarcasm, we do thank you for the updates Kev

**RadioMaster** · 31 Mar 2008, 16:28

on that note: did that bat1+2+3 box set ever get released?

**The Flying Mouse** · 31 Mar 2008, 16:38

Could never see that happening RJ.

Trying to get not two but THREE record companies to co operate with each other sounds like a losing battle to me

**RadioMaster** · 31 Mar 2008, 16:45

well if i remember correctly it was due to release at some point last year, just dont know what happened to it.

Kev · 31 Mar 2008, 16:50

No, it's been removed from the listings. Sony BMG were going to release it but something happened behind the scenes and the release was panned.

I dunno if this one will come out, Sony are usually good at churning out the Meat Loaf cd's.

**The Flying Mouse** · 31 Mar 2008, 17:37

I know it was supposed to happen, and then dropped RJ

I was hopeful the first time around, but it's obvious the three record companies just can't get it together

**RadioMaster** · 31 Mar 2008, 18:25

oops, just noticed a VERY bad typo in my first post....could anybody fix that please?

Finally got all the info and art work!

Meat Loaf - Townsend Records

I actually like the cover for this.

meatloaf-unofficial · 24 Apr 2008, 12:29

The cover does look different..

One question. All the colection's that are released of Meat Loaf never contain Anything For Love, unless I've missed some.

I thought a 'collection' is where the best fo his music is placed onto one cd. I also noticed bat isn't on there.... come on, Bat Out Of Hell is THE song that made him famous!

Confuses me a little. Its prob justme reading between the lines....

evil nickname · 24 Apr 2008, 12:43

A collections is just that, a collection of songs. A "best of" would/should include the best an artists has to offer (and the record company can release), a "greatest hits" should/would include the greatest hits. A collection? As long as it isn't a definitive or complete collection, nothing is implied besides being a selection of songs.

Sony can't release Anything for Love, since that one was released by Virgin and MCA.
It seems to me, that Sony can now include tracks from Bad Attitude and BBIS because Arista (Meat's European record label at the time), is now owned by Sony BMG.

Other than that, I think I'll pass on this one.

meatloaf-unofficial · 24 Apr 2008, 12:54

I get you know...

I reckon it would be nice to see the Greatist Hits Live Cd that contains all Meat's songs he's done live is possible. I think that would great to have.. imo

Kev · 24 Apr 2008, 12:58

There is, it's called 'Live Around The World' :P

Agreed.

And I'd hardly call yet another lousy budget compilation with seemingly no theme other than 'the tracks we can afford to license' a new album.

Yeah, I know thats one but a more uptodate one with songs from tours after that was released, 1996 onwards

Evil One · 24 Apr 2008, 21:19

Listen to LATW, then listen to the 3 Bats CD, then change your mind!

wolfy35 · 24 Apr 2008, 22:39

Would not surprise me if we soon see a new collection

Meat Loaf the best of the collections

**allrevvedup** · 25 Apr 2008, 00:32

with just a album of ten tracks...

all of them Cry over Me

That you would mean you'd be missing out on "If God Could Talk", "You're Right (I Was Wrong (when I recorded this))", "Special Girl", "Man and a Woman", "If this is the Last Kiss", "Unsaid", "Thrashin'", "Jumpin' the Gun" and "You Never Can Be Too Sure About the Girl".

And still, if such an album would be released, I would buy it just to have a copy of Thrashin' that I didn't piece together myself.

Battybarb · 25 Apr 2008, 09:01

I really like "If this is the Last Kiss" !!!!

I quite like Unsaid, better than the boring Decadent Wish anyday

Good job we're all different then isn't it because there's at least 5 on there that I listen to regularly and imo Unsaid is grossly underated.
