Never seen it, didn't even it know it existed, always thought it was a myth.

http://www.discogs.com/Various-Gang-Related-The-Soundtrack/release/2343885

Lists it with the extra tracks but the same product number which makes me go hmm...

One thought, the tracks you speak of may only have been on the clean version:

http://www.amazon.com/Wild-West-Gang-Related-Soundtrack/dp/B000003AU5

Or whichever version had a cover like this:

Either way the songs quality sounds like ass, a realaudio rip burnt to CD is what it bumps like.

Ogsues got a copy of it, if i remember right. I just have the mp3 songs of this version.
Its not a myth though, but its pretty rare.

There you go then, do the MP3 versions of the tracks you've got sound as I described? Thin RealAudio style rips with totally flat mixes or do they bump like regular DR productions?

Thx a lot, front cover look like typical release or this is blue alternative cover?
Title: Re: Gang Related with 2 bonus tracks - how it looks?
Post by: o g s u e s o n e on July 22, 2014, 08:59:51 AM
The alternate cover is only a UK release. Nothing special. No difference on the tracklist to the classic one.
The one with the bonus cuts got the typical cover.

Nah. Mario is completely different from Chocolate Bandit. Mario/Chocolate/Mr. Choc produces for Dr. Dre now.

I'm wondering; is catalog number of this release the same like normal? Cuz discogs says that normal edition has P2 53509, with bonus tracks P2-53509.
Title: Re: Gang Related with 2 bonus tracks - how it looks?
Post by: o g s u e s o n e on July 24, 2014, 06:03:47 AM
yea itīs the same catalog number.

Thats exactly what made me think it was a myth as usually product changes equal a new catalog number, but evidently not in this case.

I've searched quite a long time after this CD. In the end it was just a coincidence that I could buy this edition for $ 9.

Cool to actually see the sticker from the CD


So the bonus track version came out *after* the OG release. I wonder if it was a store exclusive?

Post by: WestSideDon on August 25, 2014, 07:12:50 AM
Hm ok, if you could find all the bonus tracks in good quality maybe you could add them to the normal version and upload it if theres no other way.....?

Yea, itīs kinda weird. Guess they wanted to push the YGD track. I mean for this track they sent out promo cds and 12" for radio stations and maybe they wanted that cut on a official disc too.
The Gang Related OST was pretty successful release. At least 2x platinum.
