Alanis Morissette | General Discussion Thread | Master Post | Deleted Studio Albums + CD Singles Request

[Poison ivy]

We like to find music on PHF, that the music industry would rather we did not know existed. With that in mind (and prior to evolving into Avril’s spiritual Mom), Alanis Morissette probably needs no introduction to anyone, with details of her post international fame discography or a feed of her Global music videos..

As you probably know Alanis’s breakthrough album “Jagged Little Pill” was not in fact her first album (it was her third)!

Therefore I would like to shine a light on her first two Canadian only album eras that have been intentionally airbrushed out of her entire discography/ recording history and swept into the shadows.

 

Unlike Tori Amos’s “Y Kan’t Tori Read” debut album situation, whereby SHE finally relented to public pressure for her true debut album’s reissue and re-release - Alanis in stark contrast (and despite what she publicly says only when pushed) - has always been privately against that ever happening.

This state of affairs has created a unique situation in music, whereby Alanis has kept her first two (Canadian only) album eras so deeply buried, that the first one in-particular (and it’s associated single edits and extended mixes) - now has reverted to a status not unlike that of material which was never actually released in the first place (with zero hope of that material officially seeing the light of day ever again)!

Therefore I wonder, would there happen to be any Canadians on here who ever randomly got lucky in their local thrift store (or whilst browsing their parents music collection) and discovered any of these deleted CD’s (which are now worth upwards of $300 each)?

There simply has to be a dusty shelf space somewhere in the whole of Canada where a copy of the below CDs (that were once actually commercially released) still sit, forgotten, ignored, un-preserved, un-loved and un-ripped for the global internet age! 😢

If so, would you be kind enough to rip them in WAV Lossless format and upload them here? Thus bringing the embarrassingly dated (region specific) poodle permed, potato quality ‘Pop’ section of eventual international superstar Alanis Morrissette’s discography back into the public domain in HQ ?

If so would you be kind enough to rip them in WAV Lossless format and upload them here? Permitting the embarrassingly uncool, regional potato quality ‘Pop’ section of Alanis Morrissette’s discography to be brought back into the light once again?
