Music Crystal Cave Limited Edition CD + DVD ..info

Hi......saw a bit about the Limited Edition of 'Songs from the Crystal Cave' in another thread, and since I've come across one(actually it was a back order for the standard version but they sent both)...here's the story with this version.....
1st off....the price is exactly the same as the standard(or was)...the the limited does not come with the poster(tho' the standard ones aren't including it either even tho' the sticker on the front says it's inside)....anyway....
2nd the most noticable thing of course is the bonus (live) track 15 at the end of the CD..'Red Rooster'(and yes..Seagal sings it..it's a tradition blues song).
and since the album now contains a DVD also(looks exaclty as the CD except color red)...the case had to be modified to contain 2 discs...this is when I noticed the the back cover has been re-printed...there has been the removal of that BS stevenseagal.com site address and replaced with Official Seagal Music site as....
Steven Seagal Official Music Site
it's a branch off the non-soloblues site but a bit different(why they have him playing guitar left handed is beyond me)...contains a few gallery pics(that we've seen)..a brief biography page and some of the usual info. about the CD adding the extra info. about the limited edition... the concert page was still 'under construction' when I was there the other day.

The DVD contains the music video of Girl It's Alright
DVD menu
(same one we have here minus the TV logo and the nonsoloblues credit screen at the very beginning)
and a second "Makin Of' video which is about 3mts tops...and it seems to be the acompanying brief interview with Seagal about the release of the album
Interview
..why he chose to shoot the video in Thailand...a couple of brief behind the scenes shots of the video along with scenes of the finished video.
the DVD also contains what they call a biography which is really no more than the info. on the music web-site in DVD form..like the info. on some of the Seagal films...flip the forward button to read the pages one at a time..this is in English or French depending what your choice is and the interview video clip is in English with French sub-titles......
Biography

Now I have to warn you....being the album was released in France...the DVD is in PAL format....
another interesting change I saw was the album itself has the running order of tracks 1-6 completely different from the standard version....
as listed here:

Standard Edition
01. Girl It's Alright
02. Don't You Cry
03. Music
04. Better Man
05. Route 23
06. My God
07. Lollipop
08. Not For Sale
09. Dance
10. Jealousy
11. War
12. Strut
13. Gouree
14. The Light

Limited Edition
01. Better Man
02. Music
03. Route 23
04. Girl It's Alright
05. Don't You Cry
06. My God
07. Lollipop
08. Not For sale
09. Dance
10. Jealousy
11. War
12. Strut
13. Goree
14. The Light
15. Red Rooster(bonus)

Now being I ordered a couple of standard versions and they happened to send one limited version I thought I'd 'share' this bonus track...'specially if you paid out for the standard version(tho' you did get a poster)...if you have some kind of a troubled consciense about it...simply don't download it..and please don't jump on Craig because it's on some of my web-space..not his...
so to everyone ......have a safe and kind Holiday Season and perhaps enjoy this extra track from "Songs from the Crystal Cave' as a bit of 'good tiding'..:)

J. Lucas where did you order the cd?

Songs from the Crystal Cave(both versions)

I just got them from www.amazon.fr as most others did...thing is; I ordered the a couple copies weeks before I even heard of a 'limited edtion'...which says it came out Nov 15th,2004...but they must have been delayed because I just got them the other day..when amazon.fr(they seem to run out from time to time) has them....it only takes 5 days to get them here in the US...so I find the expidiated shipping kind of a waste of money...'specially if they don't have them when ordered....and also the price changes(or did) after you click to purchase one...the listeing price is actually higher then the 'real' price and unless they changed it...the price is the same for both the standard and limited editions...but it does seem to me that when ordered..it can go either way when shipped...as with me..I was waiting for 2 CD's and they shipped one of each(same price).. I know www.amazon.fr has no problem with returns or refunds if need be(went thru that a while back when I didn't recieve the posters in some)...they are a decent company to do on-line business with as far as my experiences with them....not sure about the weight of the double disc version........but the shipping for 2 CD's was the same as for 1 with just the standard version.
just a reminder ...DVD is in PAL format.

It is very easy to get this cd from french amazon. I do not live in France and it only took 8 days for me to get it. I have both the limited and normal cd. Love the dvd but wish there was more on it.

I appreciate you giving us this bonus track. I bought the CD from France a while back so I don't feel wrong about it at all. Is this song written by Seagal or is it a cover?

What do you mean by a cover?
Lots of things I wonder about, too...
Like When were the songs written, for example...
I guess we'll never know cause only he does...

By cover I mean a song written by and originally brought to the world by another artist. Like is this a revision of an older blues song? I think this would have been a really good song if it were on the regular CD. It stands out really good on its own where one or two on the CD may not...
