| Hi Jennifer Think you were sitting just behind me as I was in the front row. Glad you really enjoyed it, wish I knew you'd come over from the States I'd have said hi. It was a great night, wasn't it, really enjoyed it. Wouldn't worry about the folk behind you, if you can't go to a concert and enjoy it you shouldn't be there. If folk are standing in front of you simple, just get up and join in! My wife was supposed to come with me but couldn't make it so I'd to persuade a mate who wasn't a L42 fan....but soon was! Anyone know who the guy was in the denims who came the front when Mark announced it was time to do so. What a dancer -).... Cheers Ricky 1. Glasgow Gig From: hugs and kisses < level42love @ yahoo.com> Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2003 08:35:39 -0800 (PST) [ <#top> top] I just wanted to tell all that I thoroughly enjoyed the Glasgow gig last Tuesday! I and about 10 other fans waited for 2 hours outside for Mark to come out. He autographed my tour program and I got two pictures with him. He was very kind and seemed to be impressed that I came to see them all the way from the States. I thought it a curiosity that I was the only Black person in the whole audience, because what Level 42 play is Black music. I am sure that I annoyed the people sitting behind me because I was dancing my ASS off at the show! If I had known where York and Newcastle are, I would have gone to see the band there, as well... I could list the songs the band did... but that would spoil the fun. I didn't know it was possible, but because of Mark's wonderful attitude, I am more of a Level 42 fan than I was before the concert. It was an excellent show, so go see it!!!

I must say that of all the unreleased demo tracks
I've heard, I can never get enough of "Free Yourself". I still get a kick out of
it. OK maybe favorite is not quite the word, but I do love that
song.
So what's your favorite demo track?

This is kind of a follow-up to my previous question about THE EARLY TAPES.
According to the booklet in the 2000 LEVEL 42/EARLY TAPES double CD set, the
single for 'Love Meeting Love' was released on Elite Records (Dazz 5 according
to Lisa Harding's list of 12" singles in the July 1991 issue of the newsletter),
and I know from the Digest that there's also a rare 12" of 'Sandstorm'
(Dazz 4) also released on Elite. As far as I knew though, those were
the only singles released by Elite, and there was never a full version of the
album released on the label. Going back to the 2000 booklet, it goes on to
say that Polydor rereleased "Love Meeting Love', then '(Flying on the) Wings of
Love', and then ultimately the full album.
So here's where I get confused: I was listening to the Gillingham CD
tonight, and Mark made a few comments that didn't seem to track with established
facts. He mentions just before performing 'Wings of Love' that it was their
previous single, and just before 'Forty Two', he says that it's the B-side to
their next single 'Love Games' (which according to Mark was coming out "on
the 27th"). So far, this seems to place the band in early 1981 after having been
signed with Polydor for a bit, who in turn had already released the
two aforementioned singles (Love Meeting... & Flying On The...). The 2000
booklet says 'Love Games' was released as a single in March '81 (which means the
Gillingham gig was sometime that same month), and the full album in August of
that same year. So how is it that at the end of the show, Mark says that '88' is
from their forthcoming album on Elite Records? I thought they were out of
the picture by this point.
Full of questions, I am...
Later,
Chris L.
