Talk:Warsaw (album)

Is this an official release, a bootleg, or something in-between? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.33.247.150 (talk) 08:42, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Official. You can buy a copy if you know where to look. Operating (talk) 12:37, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

I have a copy, actually. It just seems a little suspicious, and JD fan sites sometimes list it as "semi-legal" or under the "bootleg" category.

This is a bootleg - [1] --Waltloc (talk) 01:19, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

I haven't searched especially hard, but I don't see any evidence that this album has ever been licensed for "official" release. Yes, it is widely available, but the supposed record label looks pretty dodgy. My impression is that it is a bootleg that neither Sumner/Hook/Morris nor any other party has objected to.

Agreed - I *have* searched well, and while it’s hard to prove a negative, I’ll note that the (official) 1997 Heart And Soul box set says these tracks were previously unreleased aside from An Ideal For Living. I’m therefore going to edit the article to remove the CNed content. 130.44.133.157 (talk) 11:20, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks. A 1980 release date sounds plausible. It actually wouldn't surprise me if an 11-track 12" vinyl version was circulating as early as 1978, shortly after the "official" release fell apart. CAVincent (talk) 04:28, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
