If it's true that "Italian X-Rays" has bonus tracks, it's likely the three 12" single mixes.

The bonus tracks rumor is false. According to the track listings for "Circle of Love" & "Book of Dreams" at Amazon.co.uk, there are no bonus tracks.

Indeed, confirmed on the Edsel Records website. No bonus tracks on any of these discs. Miller has historically been hostile towards any sort of collectors product or archival release.

renny says, "bullshit".

miller should give his fans the 2 albums form his catalog still not on CD instead of recycling 2 "not very good albums" (i'm being kind here) like "italian x-rays" and "circle of love".

supposedly there are now european versions of "journey from eden" and "rock love", but i don't for sure if they are legit or boots.

You mean "Recall The Beginning....a Journey From Eden". That album(and "Rock Love") are now offered as downloads.

This is funny. Even iTunes promotional blurb concedes that "Rock Love" "Doesn't rock and doesn't have much love", and also states that some of Miller's fans refer to it as "Rock Bottom".
