JAMES GANG -The Bomber: Closet Queen / Boléro / Cast Your Fate to the Wind

JAMES GANG RIDES AGAIN 1970 Joe Walsh -- guitar, vocals Dale Peters -- bass Jim Fox -- drums -------------------------------------------------------------------------- On the initial pressings of James Gang Rides Again, a 1:25 electric rendition of Ravel's "Boléro" is interpolated into the song "The Bomber." However, Ravel's estate (which still owns copyright on the work) objected, and threatened suit against both the James Gang and ABC Records for its unauthorized use.[2] As a result, the track was edited, and the "Boléro" section was removed on subsequent pressings of the album until the late 1970s. The edited song's running time on such pressings is 5:39. CD re-issues of Rides Again contain the full version of "The Bomber," with the "Boléro" section restored.[Wikipedia] ------------------------------------------------------------------ I do not own the copyright.
