Pete S Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) Very poor. I'm only going to leave this up for an hour then I'm deleting it ok. deleted Edited March 14, 2006 by Pete-S
Guest hammy Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 INteresting. A lot more crossover-y than the released take. However - the flip to the actual release is a bit more in that vein, if a bit slower than this. Cheers for sharing. Hammy

Hammy Yeah I thought this was a very very strange take because it bears such little resemblence to the original, and sounds a couple of years later too. It gets better, but I don't want whoever owns the acetate to have a fit so I only put a minute on.
Guest rachel Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Yep, interesting one Pete, like the organ (ooh err ) and the rawer vocal - thanks for that
Simon T Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Yeah I thought this was a very very strange take because it bears such little resemblence to the original, and sounds a couple of years later too. It gets better, but I don't want whoever owns the acetate to have a fit so I only put a minute on. It's an earlier studio take by John Bowie, which when you play it, the singing and sparse backing sounds a touch too slow. The last time I saw it Rob Thomas had just bought back from the US so god knows where it is now he as 'retired'. There's probably a recent cut of it from when I cleaned and speeded up the original for him a couple of years ago.
Gasher Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 yeah thanks pete..Been out all night and missed it..post it up for me again please smiffy

Guest Dan Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 that's great that pete, thanks for posting it up. better than the proper one at first hearing, and i love that to bits
Gasher Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I love you Peteeee cheers mate...NICE ONE Better version IMO
Sanquine Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Loved it, just brilliant. Agree best version IMO. Karen.
Pete S Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 It beats me how anyone can like this version, it's utter CRAP
Sanquine Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 This version has a deeper and more soulful beat, not such a tinny sound as the other version. Organ and drum's sound brilliant and love how it build's up toward's the end of track. His voice has more depth to it and thank god those awful backing singer's are absent. Can understand some not being keen, but to describe as Crap. Karen
Simon T Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Yes Andy sent it me, but he says he's lost the cleaned up version! Pete Here's a snippet of it cleaned up and at the right speed. Vocal's UK don't you think?
Tony Smith Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Wasn't this off the 4-track acetate that was on ebay a couple of years back?
