At the risk of possibly going over old ground, which songs on VT would you consider the "rough" mixes, as per Von's comments at the time..?

Feel free to point me in the direction of a previous post if applicable

Dunno!

Detonation Blvd & When You Don't See Me?
Dr Jeep doesn't sound 'finished' either..

Dr Jeep, it has a pumping theme but not pumping enough. The beat hasn't a BANG BANG but a bang bang bang bang

on the demos i have there is hardly any discernable difference, not like say, the this corrosion ones which stand out a mile as rough mixes

When You Don't See Me.. I'd say the LP version is a rough mix and the "Remix" is the final version.

For me, Ribbons, Something Fast, When You Don't See Me and I Was Wrong.

But what do I know..?

My vote goes to Det Blvd, WYDSM and Dr Jeep. I agree on the WYDSM "remix" theory, it sounds pretty plausible. The rest of the songs sound too "finished" to me.

Need I contribute?

You Could Be The One - it must have been done in one take.......Groovy

Ah, PiB... Cheeky as ever and no one even cares... A sad day indeed when no one bites at THAT bait.

Indeed, but almost certainly true. I'm sure the 'rough mixes' are simply tracks that are quite finished but missing the 3 months worth of overdubs. So we can count 'More' out.

It doesn't matter whether Ribbons is raw or cooked, it's still the most astonishing 3-odd minutes of music ever committed to vinyl.

okay, may I?

So what are these TC demos you have then PiB? would you like to share them with us over in the weeding forum or are cryptic comments alone the order of the day?!

What's the point any more? This is a long running story with the same end result every time.

Not that it's PiB's fault that things are this way, mind.

They're probably crap anyway.

as bismark so rightly pointed out, they don't exist...not even the belgian has the right version...it's all a myth.

Or a joke that way too many people have taken seriously.

that's about the strength of it. sold/gave away most of the collection ealier this year to fund my model railway...and very nice it is too.

some lucky goth kid just down the road has some of the rarest sisters stuff around and he probably doesn't even know it

Does that include the fabled James Ray vocal versions?

Does anyone have a good clean & complete copy of the This Corrosion US college radio version? The only one I have heard is cut.

You know, besides the obvious Football Thing, we share a lot in common, my friend

Only Eric himself has a copy of that, as far as we know.

Though it's probably better than the final version.

Serious question:

Do you call Mr Marx "Mark"?

The "James Ray Corrosion Demo" is a myth. After 20 years, it's not surfaced anywhere... it simply does not exist.
