The 'One eskimO' Album Thread!

[ygrek]

Did you know that the album was released in Germany 3 weeks ago ?

It was released with the title "All balloons", in a standard jewelcase, and with another sleeve than the Uk or the US versions

I just ordered it

Ah interesting, well spotted ygrek! I wonder why the sleeve is different. Another one for the collection!

Great news ! Maybe it's the clear blue vinyl pictured in the US version of the CD ?

[ygrek]

Just to let you know, the US Digisleeve version has been repressed in a standard jewelcase recently

I own the standard US edition of the album, but just found "All Balloons" on ebay used and it's only 10 tracks? sorry, i'm new here... but i just got it because i heard it has different mixes and came with two bonus CD's. is this true though?

[Jon]

*i heard it has different mixes*

AND

the person selling it is throwing in 2 extra cd's including one 4 track album of theirs... sampler? and also a remix cd of kandi.

Hi Jon, welcome to the forum and thanks for joining!

I would say the 'All Balloons' album you have bought on ebay is a sampler of the original full album before the album was renamed as a self titled release and before some of the tracks were reworked.

I'm not aware of two bonus cd's coming with that particular album, it looks like the seller has decided to sell them together. I think the first extra cd is also a sampler with earlier recordings of 'Hometime, 'Kandi', 'Astronauts' and 'Amazing'. The remix cd of 'Kandi' includes all the Cicada remixes plus a radio version and instrumental. All of these have been official promo cds.

I hope that helps, it can be a bit confusing especially as there is a German release of 'All Balloons' which has the final completed recordings of the album but released under the previous name.

Anymore questions please do ask and hopefully we'll be able to answer them!
