the LP does have a poor version of The world is rated X !!

Doesn't sound too bad to my cloth ears !!

so i take it the original 60's take is bootleg only then ??

Ian.

It was done as a "Test Pressing"....late 90s-ish.

Not sure if my white lable thing with the title etc written on in pen, is what you are asking for. If so, post here, and i will put up a scan tonight.

Isn't this track on the 12 inch EP - World Is Rated X ? I don't remember it being a poor mix on this? Is it? (I can't be arsed searching the shelves for it).

Regards,

Dave

12 and 7 inch Dave if I remember rightly, it's the flip on the 7 to TWIXR. The vocals are the same but synthesisers are added to the backing or the whole backing is done on synth. I can't remember 100% it has been some years since I heard it, I very nearly binned it when I bought it and played it!!!

I have a tape that the late and missed Alan Pollard sent me some years back. I am 100% certain he'd told me he had just cracked a deal for a whole stack of Jobete 10" acetates, most of which he commited to the tape, some great tracks, particularly "Lonely lover" and I only mentioned it today to someone else that there was also a copy of "Abraham, Martin and John". I do remember at the time a lot of these Jobete acetates up for auction, cited as one-offs, maybe John Manship, but I'm not that clear on that bit, but most fetched £100 and more. I will have to dig the tape out to list the other tracks, which if they are all unissued or alternate takes may confirm that what I have on tape is an acetate recording of "Lonely lover". Lee
