And, based on this assumption, it seemed reasonable to hope that many "original versions" could be added to Rock Band, all Harmonix would have to do at this point is decide, "yeah, we should make a new version", ask the band again, and their stellar reputation would get it done.

But it sounds like this is not normally the real explanation. Good to know.

I would never scream over a couple of dollars. Just mildly comment on the inefficiency of it all.

I thought GH had the master of "Juke Box Hero" a few years after RB came out. Is this one of the "we don't want to go after the master because we already have a halfway decent cover on the platform for 5 years and pretty much whoever was going to buy it already bought it and the master wouldn't sell that well" instances, perhaps? And just because I'm a cheesy Foreigner mark and want their "masterworks" on the platform to be the original versions.

And yes, I haven't forgotten about "Double Vision", guys!

Blah Blah Blah.........

Me too. "Sometimes Salvation" is one hell of an inspired choice, HMX. More deep cuts, please!

Yippee for more Richard Campbell Christmas goodness!

Boo to The Black Crowes.

I never really listened to much of their stuff but it sounds like it's worth a listen so I'll probably pick up all 3.

not a big black crowes fan, but i like them more than counting crows or sheryl crow...and angels and remedy are really their best 2 songs imo...

Oh wait, I remember Remedy. It's that song I would always skip over on the radio in GTA IV.

I would rather have counting crows or sheryl crow than this so my first pass week in a while, I still gotta get marcy playground from last week.

She talks to Angels. Only song worth buying.
