A Certain Damage Volume 44 (Disc 2)

Posted on
A 1992 Compilation (non James) Album featuring James.

Summary

A live acoustic version of Promised Land – “Like it or not, the elections are upon us – only a few days away – and even the British are following the political events in this country with greater scrutiny than usual. Take for example this live acoustic “Election Special” version of this timely political track from an older James album, recorded live in San Diego at the Summer Pops Bowl on September 23 of this year. We may pull the curtains closed after entering the voting booth next week, but all the world will be watching us”
