| So what will disc 3-4 contain? One guess is the Zimbabwe concert that was realeased in 1987 together with the Classic Album series film about. I find it hard that there would be two extra discs with material we don´t already have?
Well, maybe a concert dvd from the concert he did in South Afrcia last year? |

| Looks like disc 3 might be taken from the video "The African Concert"? Allthough "Carazy Love vol. 1" sound strange.
Then you have to pay +100 USD to get:
4. You Can Call Me Al (Demo)
5. Crazy Love (Demo)
6. The Story of Graceland as told by Paul Simon
Count me out! This method of robbing the fans over and over and again and again to get (mostly) the same material for the X time has gone far enough. I won´t play. And I predict that they have to lower the price on the 4-disc box set substantially to get it sold. |

 | Looks like you don´t have to buy the $136 version to get the documentary. The cheaper version on 2 discs appears to have the same stuff. There must be more too it than this?
CHEAP VERSION contents
Disc: 1
1. The Boy In The Bubble
2. Graceland
3. I Know What I Know
4. Gumboots
5. Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes
6. You Can Call Me Al
7. Under African Skies
8. Homeless
9. Crazy Love, Vol II
10. That Was Your Mother
11. All Around The World Or The Myth Of Fingerprints
12. Homeless (Demo)
13. Diamond on the Soles of Her Shoes (Alternate version)
14. All Around the World or The Myth of Fingerprints (Early version)
15. You Can Call Me Al (Demo)
16. Crazy Love (Demo)
17. The Story of "Graceland" as told by Paul Simon
Disc: 2
1. Documentary
Surely, there must be something more collectible that what is listed for the extra $100.
I don´t think they think these things through. Why on earth don´t they research what a real fan would want? It´s not like it costs alot. It´s just repackaging whats out there.
If they want a premium price really it should contain the definitive content available. In my view they should have included -
- The Classic Album Documentary
- DVD of African Concert, PLUS all available Graceland Music Videos & the SNL live appearances incl Linda Rondstat(and there are quite a few worthy of inclusion)

 | I have a limited edition interview picture LP with the Graceland Story by Paul Simon. It could very well be the same as the one on the 25th anniversary edition and box set.

| Thanks Danny for the link.I managed to cancel Amazon and order the de luxe boxed set. Worth it to me to get Paul´s autograph!The Graceland show will probably not come to Australia so might as well splash out on this. |

| This is such good news but at the same time I just don´t know if I can afford the "Special" or the "Ultra-Deluxe" edition sets. I think I´ll buy the regular CD/DVD set and hope for the African concert to come out on DVD sometime in the future.
The new demos should be great! |
