Would love to see some scans. Is it worth getting the US album too?

Personally, I say yes. Yeah, I know that almost all of the songs are a re-release of DBUGTTC: 95, however, with the addition of different songs (Stars), it makes it worth while in my opinion. Scans... lemme see if I still have the stuff I was working on for RoxAttaqUSA and I’ll link it for you.

Got it. The link I put it together with is this:

The individual scans are:

This was the page that I had built during the time that Lars had recruited me and others to work on RoxattaqUSA to help promote the music and hopefully give them and EdelAmerica Records the much needed boost on the market here. “Wish I Could Fly” did very well on KISN 97.1 before it turned into an all 80s format in October of 2000 (subsequently, the station plays TONS of 80s music, peppered with 90s and current). The other stations didn’t register much with us and so my friends and I focussed in on KISN.
Too bad too. The station manager at KBEE 98.7 is a Roxette fan :o( No, he didn’t help much with the promotion. Anyway, if those links don’t work, let me know. As a footnote, place the cursor over the picture to see where it came from in the booklet / promo. The first one is a promo postcard of sorts that we distributed around town (see: Hanging them on the wooden telephone poles ;o) )

i think that the us version is the best cover of roxette éver...

Yeah, I thought it was pretty hip too. The best? Haven’t seen one of those yet. Haven’t found an album by any band that just the CD cover makes me stop and look again. *shrugs* Just me. However, this one is VERY well done and I like it :o)

Good pics. Solid ones of a solo Per / Marie... and a couple of others. I’d actually have to drag the damn thing out to tell you for sure... I’ll do that a bit later since I’m preoccupied at finding something. :o)
