Flickr: Warsaw '94 screenshots, those crazy EPs

On BasiaWeb FanFotosKrysia posted tons of awesome screencaptures from the televised Sala Kongresowa show in 1994-- SO great! I especially love this one.


Now posted in BasiaWeb Collectors are multiple covers for the Best Remixes/Brave New Hope EPs released in various forms throughout the world. By no means is it complete. :)

Don't forget that you have to login via a Flickr or Yahoo account to see these for the time being. I hope this is temporary.

Flickr: UYCBTM (TWIGD), other singles

Some singles for "Until You Come Back To Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)" which were all so similar that I wasn't satisfied so I added a couple other goodies from LWNY, including this nifty "Copernicus" single from Japan.

Flickr!

For some reason Flickr is only showing my photos to people who are logged in (using your Yahoo ID will work). Apparently I'm in line to be reviewed since I have a new account, so hopefully in a few days any old fan will be able to see the 30+ photos in the stream. I'm a total newb on that site and didn't realize there was that stipulation. :/

Flickr: Baby You're Mine!

I found a handful of other "Cruising For Bruising" singles that I missed last time, including a Japanese VCD! So check those out.

But the main attraction is "Baby You're Mine," one of the more eccentric single choices, and wow did they put a lot of singles of it out in the UK. Be sure to check out the highly collectible Valentine's Day set and (as seen here) the lovely overlay effect of another CD single.

Flickr!

If you recognize your photo, please let me know so I can give you proper credit. I have a fair idea who one of them was from, but just want to confirm before I jump to the wrong conclusion. Thanks!

Flickr: new photo?,a whole lot of "Cruising For Bruising"

Right now I'm really liking Flickr! So easy and I can do something in a snap.

User dutchmarc captured a photo from Basia's myspace which appears to be new. Is it? [EDIT: No. It's old.] I like it. She's like, "I'm just going to chill in this corner here and think." ;)



Also, I'm going to start uploading single pictures to the Flickr group by song, just because it's fun. This week I'll do LWNY singles, today: "Cruising For Bruising." Some UK singles, a couple US ones and my favorite Japanese one.

Flickr!

New BasiaWeb Flickr groups

Today I set up two different Flickr groups so fans can share their goodies. One has to do with sharing scans of those great vinyl, cassette, and CD covers along with the even more fun to collect things like flyers for shows, record awards, promo items... basically, if you have physical Basia-related objects, BasiaWeb Collectors is the place to show it off! On the other hand, if you have photos from past shows or those typically-hilarious pics of you throwing the metal salute with Basia or whatever, these go into BasiaWeb FanFotos (love those intercaps around here, haha).

Please be sure to read my little disclaimer paragraph before uploading, especially if you have never used a photo sharing group before. Something that I am going to be a huge stickler on: keep your links to eBay ads and personal sales web sites away, please, as well as pleads to check out your site or your profile. I want to keep this fun and smooth!

So please take part and enjoy! Now, many of you know I've been sitting on loads of material in the constant hope to upload it, until I get daunted and intimidated by the volume. ;) If I have your material and you'd rather me put it up for you, I have no problem doing that! Let me know and please, give me a few days to do it. Thanks!

I look forward to seeing all the great stuff!

Basia: Koch deal done, album February '09, touring spring

via Basia's myspace page Basia has posted a message on her myspace as well as new tracks.

"Good news! Our deal with Koch Records has at last been finalized for the release of our CD in North America. We're still working on the rest of the world! The schedule at the moment is for a single release in late January and then the album will follow in late February. We would then, all going well, tour some time around April/May/June time. Where exactly, we just don't know yet, but watch this space or check out the website (basiasongs.com). To celebrate we have added two new tasters, 'There's a Tear' and 'Everybody's on the Move' (instrumental). Thanks to those who took the time to wish me a happy birthday. I celebrated it with my brother and sister, by going to see Stevie Wonder at the 02 Arena. He was fantastic, we had a wonderful night! With love Basia"

If you haven't already, do add Basia to your friends list: http://www.myspace.com/basiasongs

Also: it appears that you can now add their songs to your myspace playlist, THANK YOU!! because I was feeling like a heel for having everyone but Basia on mine, frankly. Gotta represent, and us fans are going to have to work harder to spread the word this time since they are indie now!
