TORA TORA RARITIES CDS NOW AVAILABLE, SAMPLES ONLINE December 2, 2009 As reported in late October, Tora Tora is releasing three CDs featuring demo and previously unreleased material through FNA Records. The discs are titled, 'Before & After', 'Miss B. Haven' The Unreleased Wild America Recordings' and 'Bombs Away The Unreleased Surprise Attack Recordings' and are now available for purchase at fnarecords.net. The label is also selling a Collector's version of each album which are limited edition versions, only 100 copies, signed by all 4 members of Tora Tora that includes a Tora Tora dog tag with chain. Before & After: Sound samples Tora Tora - Before & After - is a "New" Collection of "Old" Recordings. Before & After is comprised of 10 tracks . The first 5 tracks are from the "VERY LIMITED" cassette-only release of To Rock To Roll. (See the original album art on the inside of this album). The sixth track is the very original recorded version of Walkin' Shoes which would eventually wind up on Surprise Attack and be a stand out track and video. The remaining four tracks are demos that were written for the unreleased third album and never turned into A&M records. Here's your chance to see how Tora Tora was progressing as the music industry was taking a very new direction. Onde again, FnA Records went in and cleaned up a lot of the stray noises that can occur when recording demos...and the outcome is an extremely listenable project. On top of that, the listener gets to hear some AMAZING Tora Tora tunes that were never available anywhere else until now. Be sure to check out the other rare recordings being released through FnA Records on Tora Tora. In trying to stay with the hugely succesful album cover of the bomber girl that donned the Surprise Attack album cover, FnA Records has recruited some of the top artists to design its artwork for the new Tora Tora releases. 01 - Wasted Love (from the indie release To Rock To Roll) 02 - To Rock To Roll (from the indie release To Rock To Roll) 03 - Time On The Edge (from the indie release To Rock To Roll) 04 - Phantom Rider (from the indie release To Rock To Roll) 05 - Love's A Bitch (from the indie release To Rock To Roll) 06 - Walkin' Shoes (Original Version) 07 - That's The Way Love's Supposed To Be (demo from the unreleased third album) 08 - Blue Tomorrow (demo from the unreleased third album) 09 - Better To Have Loved Than Lost (demo from the unreleased third album) 10 - Something's Gotta Give (demo from the unreleased third album) Miss B. Haven' The Unreleased Wild America Recordings: Sound samples Tora Tora Miss B. Havin' (The Unreleased Wild America Recordings) - is a "New" Collection of "Old" Recordings. Miss B. Havin' is comprised of 13 tracks that were demos written for the Wild America album. These are the tracks that did not make the album. However, in our humble opinion, some of these tracks should've been definite inclusions on Wild America. The quality varies as these were only demos, but FnA Records went in and cleaned up a lot of the stray noises that can occur when recording demos...and the outcome is a very listenable project.
