Ady Croasdell Posted February 8, 2017 Author Posted February 8, 2017 14 hours ago, Soul-Slider said: Well, this prompted me to find a list I wrote years ago! Take a look, I figured out both Chuck Jackson alt takes. What about the others Ady? All on Kent LPs The Terry Callier (not Kent) alt version of 'Look At Me Now' at the bottom of the list could be from a Chess LP I have? Brilliant, when I've got an afternoon and some dubs I'll tackle these though I'm not sure which Terry Callier LP you mean. Any more for any more?
Pete S Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 I did an article on all those Kent alternate versions, must be 10/15 years back but I'm sure it was up on here. 1

I know I heard an alternate version of 'Look At Me Now' but as I haven't got the original 45 to compare I figured it was on that LP but I did write that list years ago and the brain has shrunk since then ;-)

It's so hard to remember this stuff to be honest, things I knew ten years ago I just don't remember now. I read an unpublished book I wrote in 1997 (much of it is on here in the archive) and I can't believe what I knew then, I sure as hell don't know it now.

Chalky Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 The Maxine Brown "LMGYML" on the Kent lp is a different take, I can't remember off top why, think it might be added strings?
Ady Croasdell Posted February 8, 2017 Author Posted February 8, 2017 How about Chuck I Keep Forgettin'? Mick at work reckons one version stood out for him but it may have been a good stereo. Anyone know of any recorded differences?

Guest Gogs Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 My wand 149 has these lyrics "will you let ma have" + "come on baby take me for a ride" dead wax marks read "wand (scratched) 149A 50129-1E (pressed)"
Steve G Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Just played 149 and 169....never noticed the difference in the final lyrics before. Nice.

Baz1 Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Well the 169 I have and the 149 that Mick put on here earlier sound totally different to me not just final lyrics as Steve said above sings it in a slightly different way right through the track
Eddie Hubbard Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) Think some of the alternate mixes were on the " Just Keep On Dancing " CD .I remember Terry Callier "Look at me now " was way different Edited February 8, 2017 by Eddie Hubbard

Tony Smith Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 So are we saying ALL copies of 169 have the "kiss" lyric or just some??
The Yank Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 20 hours ago, Eddie Hubbard said: Think some of the alternate mixes were on the " Just Keep On Dancing " CD .I remember Terry Callier "Look at me now " was way different The version of "Hold On" by the Radiants on the "Just Keep On Dancing" CD is much better than the released version. Those annoying back up singers that sound like they came from the Opera Company down the street are gone and the song sounds much better.

Others don't agree, those CDs were a minefield of alt versions, several unknown to me!
Benji Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 I don't know how many alt takes Pete's article covers. But I remember you, Ady, saying many years ago that there might be much more alt version hidden on the Kent LPs that people are aware of. From what I remember you said back then that quite often you picked the master tape that sounded most like the released one whenever you didn't have the original 45/LP at hand for reference.

Tony Smith Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Soul Brothers Six "I'll Be Loving You" sounds completely different on the "Getting' To Me" CD (Not alternate, I know, but if you played it back to back with the 45, you'd swear they were different) Edited February 10, 2017 by Tony Smith

I would estimate 20 tracks are alt versions by mistake. Many more are intentionally alt and should be described as such somewhere. The first released date tells you a lot. If it's the date of the original single or LP then it should be exactly that. If it's the release date of the CD then we know its an alternate.

The tape of the flip is different too, longer on tape.
