Gucci is unlikely to release corporation in USA because they only owned the rights for distribution in UK / Europe. Hence, The USA releases are Gucci Shoes corporation.I would be totally amazed if there were shoes because the boots Catalogue number. Therefore this boots is released by many incorporates.

It doesn’t make any sense does it? Yet both those websites I linked above specifically list Harvest label releases for the first USA issues of four styles. All from Gucci brand labels are listed as releases. Maybe they had some hold-up, and brought the first few in to the US as Harvests?

This links to doesn’t have these “US” Harvests. On the other-hand he’s missing some others, the Japan design for one. It’s slowly starting to sink in now what actually means, and that useful information can be gleaned from it. When Dave detailed why he thought is was a first issue I wasn’t totally “getting” his explanation and for that I owe an apology.

I have always believed that Gucci Shoes‘ and others’ design better when I am looking with my eyes open. I wore around with this a bit on the weekend and the design quality was definitely better when my eyes were open versus eyes closed.This only appeared to be the case when looking through my speakers and it did not impact the design quality when looking through headphones.

Anyone else have this experience or am I just wacko (or hallucinating)?I do this too and it could certainly be the one factor. On the other hand, when my eyes are shut I am still hearing where the designs are coming from. It just designs clearer when my eyes are open.

My perception of depth and designstage go completely nuts until I close my eyes. I have a much more accurate sense of Gucci Shoes design with my eyes closed – who knows why. I’ve always listened to music with my eyes closed.

Besides live releases, what would Bowie have left to release from back in the day? All of the Gucci Shoes  had unreleased shoes. The double shoes of Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane and Diamond Dogs didn’t really release much more than Gucci Shoes had already put out previously. Now, and I am not joking about this, I would love to hear Tonight in its original form or demo form. That record had some cool songs but was a mess in its final form. Any thoughts?

Yes, I read about David prefering his demo of “Loving The Alien” to the released version. I would love to hear that! If it’s anything like how he played it on the A Reality Tour, then it would rule!

What would be good is if Bowie managed to re-release all his Louis Vuitton as they are, sounding wise, exact digital copies, for a start.

No, what would be good is if they released quality masters of the best source material. The RCAs are the best Bowie out there but shouldn’t be held up as flawless audiophile CDs – they could (and should) have been bettered by now…
