Re: Forthcoming expanded titles original group. Let us dream

From Saint&Sinner: So what interests me is why leave off these tracks? Since there still seems to be some confusion, I repeat there are no finished and mixed recordings of unheard songs ready to be mastered and released. They are demonstration recordings mainly of songs we have already heard in thei...

Re: Forthcoming expanded titles original group. Let us dream

From padre_sliprat:
"Wonder when that was recorded?"

He is referring to "School's Back In" which I think was recorded in 1972 or 1973 but without meaning to burst any bubbles, I don't recall that song coming up in the discussion I recently had with the fellow in charge of the project.

Obviously I can't tell you but you're a good detective and hopefully, there shortly will be an official announcement.

Yes, so for example, the footage from 1972 from both The Academy Of Music and from Miami (all of which has been seen before, just as you refer) do not exist in full (with the footage from Mo...

Re: Forthcoming expanded titles original group. Let us dream

From Ted Sallis: "I have/have heard demos of quite a few ACG songs which have not yet been officially released, i.e. from LITD, Killer, SO and MOL." Those would not be very different to those that appeared on "Old School", in that they would still be quite close to their final versions. There were a...

I don't disagree but as ...

From Babysquid:
"I remember reading somewhere on this forum that there was an extra 80 minutes of equally great original material recorded during the LITD sessions"

Re: The sound of A

From Ted Sallis:
"so if the demo version dates from 1967 and the ACG played on it,"

Apparently, it was just Alice and an acoustic guitar.

>it's too bad it didn't manage to emerge on the Old School box set.

Nobody alerted us to the existence of this recording.

Re: Alice to play Herod in Jesus Christ, Superstar

From Daggers & Contracts:
"I'd be interested to learn how old the Photo T.V. Guide used"

It is from 1972 (during the "School's Out" tour).
