At least there seems to be Wonder Over Yonder "Let the Pun Fit the Crime!" song recording without dialogue and sound effects from the show. https://soundcloud.com/andy-bean-7/woy- ... ore#t=5:40" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
There might be MLP song recordings without such, considering that they'll be released in a new MLP digital album(Pinkie Pie's Party Playlist) soon.

It already exists. He appeared on MLP as "Cheese Sandwich" IIRC

Yeah, Cheese Sandwich was the character. And there are multiple songs throughout the episode he participates in so there's even a bit to choose from.
Love and peace.

I think it's safe to say that, considering the entire catalog is being remastered for this box set, IF he wanted to pull songs from TV shows etc that he would go back to the production companies of each respective show to get the master recording of those songs.
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.

I thought I was hearing Jack McBrayer in the Wander gig despite knowing I was expecting to hear Al.
I was soooooo confused :wacko:

On a non-rarities note, I'm sure that it will be taken care of during the remastering process, but just in case the powers that be are reading this...please make sure the opening beat on "Toothless People" is restored!

And for the sake of historical accuracy, maybe the vinyl etchings can be reproduced as well.

So, unfortunately, it looks like You're Pitiful won't be included as a rarity in the set. Somehow, permission was denied again.

I'm honestly baffled by this. Atlantic Records, you still think it's too early in James Blunt's momentous music career?
