These are promotional releases which contain material which is not found on any of Nanci's other releases, or which are significant in length or packaging.
| Nanci Griffith: Words and Music (1989) | ||
|---|---|---|
|
|
This was a cassette-only release accompanying the release of the album Storms. The interview segments are fairly brief, but it's an interesting item.
|
| "Storms" promo EP (1989) | ||
|---|---|---|
|
|
This CD single contains a variety of material from different sources: "Storms" from the Storms album, "Wooden Heart" from The Last Temptation of Elvis collection, "Deadwood, South Dakota (live)" from the One Fair Summer Evening album, and "There's a Light Beyond These Woods (Mary Margaret) (live)" from the video version of One Fair Summer Evening. This last track is not available on any other CD.
|
| A Portrait of an Artist (1991) | ||
|---|---|---|
|
|
This promo is Nanci's first "best-of" collection for MCA Records. It came out at the time of the release of Late Night Grande Hotel. All the tracks here are available on Nanci's MCA albums, but it's a nice collection.
|
| Present Echoes (1993) | ||
|---|---|---|
|
|
This promo came out when Other Voices Other Rooms was released. It contains six songs from the album, along with the original versions which inspired Nanci to record them. It also contains cards with photos of each of the artists, including Nanci.
|
| It's a Hard Life Wherever You Go (live CD single) (1993) | ||
|---|---|---|
|
|
This is a live version of "Hard Life" taken from the video Other Voices Other Rooms, recorded live in Austin, Texas in 1993. |
| Flyer (advance promo copy) (1995) | ||
|---|---|---|
Normally an advance promo copy of a CD is just a regular copy of the CD sent out a couple of weeks before the official release date, but Elektra Records sends out advance promo copies that don't have the final album artwork. In the case of Flyer, the advance promo CD also contained different mixes of two songs: "On Grafton Street" and "This Heart." "On Grafton Street" is missing The Chieftans, making it sort of a Blue Moon Orchestra solo version. "This Heart" is a different mix, probably a version of the song preceding the remix by Larry Mullen on the final album. |
| |
| Time of Inconvenience/Interview (1995) | ||
|---|---|---|
This 2-CD promo contains a disc with two versions of "Time of Inconvenience" and a second disc containing a 9 1/2 minute interview with Nanci by John Conlon of WRLT, Nashville. |
| |
| AAA Radio Live Sampler (1995) | ||
