Hidden cd tracks

Postby randy » Wed Mar 23, 2005 2:04 pm

Anyone else find these to be a pain in the ass??? Hidden lp tracks were fine, even three sided lps-but hidden cd tracks suck! If your gonna give me 5 minutes of silence between songs , just give me another 5 minute song!! Really stinks if you want to add one of those songs to a comp cd too!

I hate hidden tracks just for the sam reason, such a waste. after all is it hidden when it's listed as "extra track". And a three sided lp is dual cut tracks. depending on where you set the needle down at you could listen to one set of tracks (B) or compl

ohhhh, OK. Thanks. Now I get it. I remember hearing about those.

What about the concept of Easter Eggs on CDs? I am aware they exist for DVDs, but are there any music CDs that have Eggs ? What is the feasibility of that, is it possible ? (and most of a

Funny this topic should come up, I was thinking how many hidden tracks are out there and was wondering if we put our heads together, we could actually compile a comprehensive list of songs that are getting by us. Here are some I have come across:
