Ok, so I just got home and I'm writing this in "Paul mode"  (i.e.  I've been 
drinking a little too much.. ).. so this may not be totally coherent, but..

I have to say THANK GOD the record company did not like the full band version 
of LWG!  Not to say that I wouldn't LOVE to hear the band version of the CD, 
but my fondest memories of Patty are of her very first solo shows "way back 
in the day", and hearing LWG for the very first time.

I was so into the hard rock scene, and Patty was like a breath of fresh air 
for me.  She totally opened me up to a new kind of  music, and without her 
I'm sure I wouldn't be listening to all of the great stuff I listen to today. 
 If the record company would have released LWG "as is", with the full band I 
probably would have never gotten into her (or so many other artists) like I 
am now.

Anyway, the reason I'm writing is b/c I'm not convinced that the CD IS on the 
shelf like the "rumor" has it.  I posted a few weeks ago that I had learned 
from someone that Patty didn't want the CD released until she could add a 
song or 2 that she felt "needed" to be on the CD.  I don't know where 
everyone else is getting their information.. but mine is from someone that I 
consider to be a reliable source.  I can't confirm that what I heard is 100% 
true either.

Ok, I'm off to bed.. wouldn't it be cool if someone from Interscope would do 
us all a favor and take the time to let us know what the REAL DEAL is!?!?!?
