mikeweil Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 I have the 3 CD box Columbia J3K64275, CD, High Jinks - The Mose Allison Trilogy. There are duplications of some tracks on the third disc which I thought to be alternate takes, but the Lord disco says they are identical: "... the following tunes from the following sessions were included twice on this 3 CD set: "Baby, please don't go"."Deed I do"."Mad with you"."I love the life I live"."You're a sweetheart"."I ain't got nobody"." Anybody here knows what it's all about these tracks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I think this is what happened: Columbia made two albums with Mose: The Transfiguration of Hiram Brown and I Love the Life I Live. After he went to Atlantic, Columbia still had some unreleased material in the can, but not enough for a full album. So they put out V-8 Ford Blues on their Epic subsidiary, with some unreleased tracks, but filled out with recycled tracks from the first two albums. The box set is just the three separate albums in a cardboard sleeve, so those tracks appear twice. Someone correct me if I'm wrong about this.
