GodsComic · 03 Aug 2006

Just saw that my friend at Now Sounds released an expanded versions (22 tracks!) of one of my favorite albums, Paul Williams "Someday Man"

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0040U8XY6/?tag=imwan-20

• PAUL WILLIAMS’ SOLO DEBUT
• DELUXE EXPANDED EDITION
• MORE THAN DOUBLED IN LENGTH!
• FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES!

“Someday Man” is the only complete album born of the fertile collaboration between PAUL WILLIAMS and ROGER NICHOLS, two songwriters responsible for some of the most culturally indelible and hugely successful pop songs of the last century, including ‘We’ve Only Just Begun’, ‘Rainy Days And Mondays’, and ‘Let Me Be The One’, all massive hits for The Carpenters. Their compositions have also been recorded by Frank Sinatra, Three Dog Night, The Monkees, and literally thousands of others.

This re-mastered and expanded reissue of Someday Man — considered by many fans to be one of the most essential albums of the sunshine pop genre — includes 12 bonus tracks, including original demos, instrumental versions, mono mixes, and session-in- progress tracks.
The deluxe, full-colour booklet also includes rare, unpublished photos and extensive liner notes by DAVID PONAK and STEVE STANLEY, featuring the participation of PAUL WILLIAMS and co- writer/producer ROGER NICHOLS.

I know this Amazon listing says this reissue was released January 1, 2018, but this was actually released Oct. 25, 2010.
Good album, though.
