Me again! I own the BOTW Album on CD but it´s an older version without the bonus tracks. Is there any way to get them without buying the album again? I guess Paul and Artie have enough money... Would be nice to have Feuilles-O and the BOTW demo, however.

PS: Did they ever record Red Rubber Ball? Got it on a bootleg but it´s a quite crappy recording.

you can buy the bonus tracks on itunes 99cent each - I did it for paul simons bonus tracks from th box set. also Red Rubber Ball is the box set Old Friends - very uptempo/rocky whatever with paul banging on the guitar. may you could get that on itunes too

Yeah, I think I´ve heard that recording before too. It´s spot on and sounds pretty much like a studio recording.

I think it´s a live recording, Art introduces it saying some other group recorded it and sold 19,000 copies to which the audience laughed - I didn´tget it myself :< Great recording nonetheless.

He says it on another bootleg too. It´s the Buffalo show from the 1960s.

"Paul just finished a song which is now the 26th Paul Simon song in the collection. Almost all of which we have recorded somewhere either on single or somwhere on album... There´s one fairly notable exception which we´d like to do. It´s a song that was recorded first, before we could get it down, by a group called ´the Cyrkle´ who used to be good friends of ours (edit: audience laughes). And they sold 890,000 copies of it. It´s called Red Rubber Ball"

The second "somwhere" in the second sentence was a fault by me. He doesn´t say it. Besides, I´m not quite sure about the "either" in that sentence. It could be another word too. The recording quality isn´t that good. ;)
