Over the last days, there has been a certain amount of confusion in the fan community on how to purchase/legally get Roses bonus tracks.

Sadly not all bonuses are available for everyone to purchase, due to some restrictions on iTunes and Amazon. Plus, with the “extinction” of CD-singles, those non-album tracks are being harder and harder to get on CD releases.

Here’s a suggestion for Cooking Vinyl and the band. An EP (CD) with all bonus tracks or a Complete Session of Roses later on this year. Older-fashoners who still care for CDs -and there seems to be a lot of them in the Cranfan community- would be ecstatic.

Here’s a recap of the situation:
