FEW NOTES, E-MAILS, REMARKS, COMMENTS AND SHORT STORIES
WE HEARD AND
READ OVER THE YEARS CONCERNING GINO VANNELLI'S CRAZY LIFE ALBUM
:
A few words from the editors (B&T)
dated Wednesday 30 August 2006 :
Yesterday Tuesday 29 August 2006
we received a super fantastic beautiful package from Japan, CD Japan, with 6 Japanese Gino Vannelli albums and YES
also CRAZY LIFE !!! A very, very beautiful set... We can recommend this
set but you can also order 1 or 2 or 5 Gino Vannelli cd's. The cd's are
all for sale separately. So here is your chance to buy the original Gino
Vannelli CRAZY LIFE cd for a very reasonable price, about USA$ 18 !!! Yes
it's still a CRAZY LIFE !!!
An e-mail from Christopher in the USA dated 12 July 2006 with the
subject : Calgary Stampede - Crazy Life
Hi
I guess Gino is doing
his show now out in Calgary. Wouldn’t it be funny if he was wearing
western cowboy boots and a ten gallon hat!
PS- I’m going to order that limited edition version of Crazy Life from
Japan. I’m still convinced that there is a case of the originals in a
warehouse someplace in the Midwest of the US, like Ohio or Iowa! CB
An e-mail from Norine in Canada dated 11 July 2006 with the subject :

Hi There,
Just to let you know that I have also pre
ordered the Crazy Life CD. Thanks for letting me know about this. This is
a very rare CD and it is hard to find. Ciao for now Norine

An e-mail from Marco Primelli in Italy dated 8 July 2006 with the
subject :
Crazy life CD reprinted in Japan
Hello dear
friends,
Crazy life is now being re-printed in Japan in limited
release!
I have pre-ordered this at CD Japan, their prices are absolutely convenient
(considering it's yen converted into Euros). The price (included shipping)
is 24 dollars, it's more convenient when recharged in Euros). Probably you
already knew this...in case just wanted to let you know!!!
Kind regards
from the Primelli family!!! Have a peaceful weekend!
Another e-mail from Jacques in Paris, France dated 8 July 2006 with
the subject : crazy life...
Hello les amis,
Yes i m also
registrated at cdjpan newspaper and when i ve seen Gino's name and after
the 'Crazy life' title i ve think finally after all those years the
japanese are the most intelligent people because they reissued an album
who was on sale at crazy prices on ebay and missed but a lot of true fans.
I dont understand why the AM catalogue wasn t available in a remastered
edition since all these time.
Yesterday i ve listened again carefully 'the gist of the gemini ' and
the k2/24 bit japanese remastered edition of 'nightwalker' and it s the
day and night. the 6 first pressed edition of Gino's album on cd are
deserved by a very low sound quality. Since 1988 the cd's sound are more
sophisticated and i m sure that after the release of these japanese series
we will re-discovered again the magic sound of the 70's album. This cd
edition came with a carboard sleeve so usually they are in limited
pressing edition so don t forget to pre-order soon. More royalties for
Gino that s good no??
I ve read on your website that you received the 2 official vhs/dvd's
reissue could you tell me some information about these dvd's. His the
sound simply stereo or with a dolby digital or dts surround sound. Are
some bonuses added or no ?? Have a nice week end and don t miss the final
sunday Jacques
An e-mail from Jacques in Paris, France dated 7 July 2006 with the
subject : RED ALERT GINO REISSUE ON CD
Hello les amis,

news France in final of the world cup greattt and incredible ..
But

Fantastic
japan idea, all will be on sale next august 23 rd. Another new page in
your website is necessary for this fantastic information. Have a nice day
and don t forget to support the french team LOL LOL LOL Jacques

An e-mail from Carsten Weide dated 3 July 2006 with the subject : Re:
C. Undjem
Hello there !
How are you ? I hope all is fine. Here
things are great.
I saw C. Undjem she was the warm up for a concert I went to, and she
mentioned Gino and she was singing the song that she just had recorded
with him. The main concert was with the very great Michael Buble.
I just want to ask you, when do you think the new Carsten Weide
photobook will be finish ? The one with the pictures I took in Tivoli last
year. This is NOT a complain, because I know how busy you are.
Did you see on the www.cdjapan.co.jp site, you can now pre order the
first 6 Gino V. CD´s in a cardboard edition to be released in August .
Take care, I hope to hear from you soon.
Best regards from, Carsten

A few words from the Editors (B&T) : All those years from about
1990 this Gino Vannelli Crazy Life album on cd is out of print and can
only be found in second-hand stores or at auctions and the price will get
very crazy at these auctions !! Sometimes people are very lucky finding
this Crazy Life cd in a small village in a little cd-shop who still have
"old stock" !!! But than you have to be very lucky but it happened though,
we know.
There are Dutch people who found a very special Crazy Life package in a
little village in Canada when they visited that village during vacation...
This Crazy Life cd was an import and was packed in a long import box with
the same design as the Crazy Life LP and CD cover, this box must still be
somewhere in Holland. Or they sold it for a high price... We wonder : how
can a Gino Vannelli fan sell a Gino Vannelli album ??? We could not stand
the pain... We can only understand this sale when there is a reason of
life and death and when people's loved ones are hungry...
We also know that somebody went on a vacation in the south of Holland
and found the Crazy Life cd in a very small cd-shop in a small village by
accident... just for a few Dutch Guilders...
The Crazy Life vinyl LP is much more easier to find. Somewhere in the
90's they suddenly released Crazy Life on cd from Germany and it was in
the shops in Holland for a very short time and wise people who saw it
bought it immediately...
At some of the auctions they sell : Crazy Life / And another Gino
Vannelli album on one cd but that is NOT an original release, these cd's
are from the "black market" and are made by the "black market" people.
These 2 on 1 have nothing to do with Gino Vannelli's life's work !!!
That's for sure !!! B&T somewhere in 2003...
 Do you want to tell your own CRAZY LIFE
adventures, notes, remarks, comments or short story ??? Reviews are
allowed too, everything about Gino Vannelli's CRAZY LIFE is allowed but
there are limits, NO hurting of feelings towards Gino's Wife or Son and no
personal crazy words by the women on this planet !!! You will exactly know
what and who we mean... please e-mail us
And we put your words on
line inside this web page...
