The full tracklisting is :

OUTTAKES

I want you ////instrumental version , unreleased variant of glides and chimes .

shine a light ///very different from the album version ,diff vocals , diff ,mix ..unreleased

smile ///radically different , longer version ..unreleased

I want you ////twelve inch, unreleased instrumental version

REHEARSALS

these are from a good quality cassette recording of a Spiritualized rehearsal at Jason's flat in Rugby.They have been cleaned up and mastered and the sound is powerful if not totally hi-fi.

why don't you smile
you know it's true
amen
angel sigh
If I were with her now
run

PEEL SESSIONS:
Already released,but a nice little bonus .

Angel sigh
feel so sad
smile

there is a secret track at the end of smile ...which seems to be someone messing about with a sampler while somebody sings the bare necessities from the Jungle book in the background .
Not essential Spiritualized , but quite entertaining .

The cd's are professionally made, with nice artwork and quality printing .
We have very few of these .
We are putting together a list of people who want one. If you definitely want to buy this, reply to this e-mail address (frndly_fr@yahoo.co.uk.) stating how many you want .
When they are ready to be sent out ,(about three weeks)
you will be notified by e-mail and told how to pay for them .

They will be 12 pounds each including postage and packing.
You will need some sort of debit /credit card .
Included is an attachment showing some of the artwork .
thanks

I think payment is via paypal.
Ordered mine. No doubt they will go quick.

Someone tell Kate!!

wow, i would love to hear this. never been into paying for things like this though.

rajeev (rajeev), Sunday, 2 April 2006 16:13 (eighteen years ago) link

I can't wait to hear it.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Sunday, 2 April 2006 23:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh my, oh my. The power of ILx is astonishing and because of this board all copies (+) will probably be sold...email coming tomorrow.

And at least these guys have the whole drugs excuse, so I've never had the same crushed expectations with them that I've had every time I hear the name Kevin Shields....

OTM

Amazing Grace was horrid! I love Let It Come down but apparently one of the few who do. It was over the top but think it's the best lyrics Jason ever wrote and love the fact that he blew so much money making that record...but it worked.

BeeOK (boo radley), Monday, 3 April 2006 08:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I liked amazing grace and I loved Let It Come Down.
But this guitar loops im not so sure about...

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Monday, 3 April 2006 14:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Let It Come Down is actually a great record, despite the dicey press coverage. Never understood exactly why it got slammed. I've always heard it had to do with the choir bombast and the commercial success of Ladies and Gentlemen..., but I'd guess it's an example of critic-actually-fan, and the biggest fans sometimes have the hardest time with evolving sounds.

Amazing Grace was definitely a step back, but there's a few great tracks on it all the same.

I'm having a real hard time uploading "Guitar Loops" as a YSI. I've had a firewall issue lately and I think this may have something to do with it.

It really is that bad, though, so you're not missing out on anything but disappointment....

Giles Manius (jsoulja), Monday, 3 April 2006 16:58 (eighteen years ago) link

I was totally stoked about getting any new music from the Spaceman, and when I got Guitarloops in the mail and listened to it I was pretty pissed. Not at the man, but I was dissapointed and found it unlistenable. Since then I've put it in a few times and it has grown on me a good bit.

I've tried emailing about that Spiritualized boot, has anybody else gotten a response? Not me, yet.... God I want this boot so bad.

sunroof! wants their album cover back.

vahid (vahid), Monday, 3 April 2006 22:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I've tried emailing about that Spiritualized boot, has anybody else gotten a response?

Yeah , I did. The tracklisting and stuff was the reply I got.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Monday, 3 April 2006 23:35 (eighteen years ago) link

i'd still like to hear guitar loops. so if anyone else would like to ysi it, i would really appreciate it and junk like that.

Christopher Costello (CGC), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 00:08 (eighteen years ago) link

Likewise, I would love to hear this as well. Email link if you don't want to post and thanks ahead of time.

BeeOK (boo radley), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 06:49 (eighteen years ago) link

Errrr... blimey! Thanks for alerting me to this, Pfunkboy!

I have written, but I fear I may be too late, alas. I'm going to go and see if I can get the new 'puter to play Will's MP3s now. :-)

STOP! Time Thief! (kate), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 10:05 (eighteen years ago) link

No problem. I'm sure you will get one no bother. Esp if Will hasn't posted elsewhere.

I immediately thought of you and Chris when this came up. But my email to him bounced back.

I can't wait to hear this.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 15:02 (eighteen years ago) link

email to me bounced back?

Christopher Costello (CGC), Tuesday, 4 April 2006 16:12 (eighteen years ago) link

No, to another Chris.

Anyway I just got an email from Will. He sent me the paypal address. £12 inc postage & packing.
Just paid.

Did everyone else get one?

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Friday, 14 April 2006 12:34 (eighteen years ago) link

Yup.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 14 April 2006 13:23 (eighteen years ago) link

Yup

(it trips me out that me and pfunk boy have mutual Spacemen 3/Funkadelic obsessions.)

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 15:57 (eighteen years ago) link

i just heard guitarloops on wfmu's website. i am now BEGGING for someone to ysi it or sell me their copy.

Christopher Costello (CGC), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 22:01 (eighteen years ago) link

is it like Dreamweapon? Or Glides and Chimes? Or Tones for DJs? Gimme a bone here...

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 22:04 (eighteen years ago) link

I really REALLY like the Peel Sessions tracks on this cd.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 22:05 (eighteen years ago) link

are those the same Peel Sessions as the Medication EP...? That stuff's amazing. I have some other BBC stuff but it isn't Peelie (recorded at Maide Vale, I think? with a very stupid and rude host. Also features the only live version I've ever heard of "Stay With Me")

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 22:09 (eighteen years ago) link

it's nothing like dreamweapon and i'm not sure what those others sound like. it's like...it's just jason fucking around with guitar loops.

Christopher Costello (CGC), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 22:11 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm not sure. I have the medication ep, i'll need to dig it out to find out.
I really should buy those Early Works cds that came out.

email me, mine's for sale.

JimD (JimD), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 23:36 (eighteen years ago) link

i'd like to pay $20 at the most.

Christopher Costello (CGC), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 23:51 (eighteen years ago) link

It probably cost him £15.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Wednesday, 19 April 2006 23:52 (eighteen years ago) link

Yep, it cost me more than $20, and they're going for about £30 on ebay at the moment.

JimD (JimD), Thursday, 20 April 2006 02:48 (eighteen years ago) link

I really should buy those Early Works cds that came out.

if you're thinking of 'the complete works' series, don't bother with volume 2 but volume 1 is *essential* ... perhaps my favorite SPZ release after LGM. the 'medication' EP is on there, as are a few versions of "feel so sad" and so much else.

rajeev (rajeev), Thursday, 20 April 2006 03:43 (eighteen years ago) link

Vol 2 is worth having as well, especially for a fiver.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Thursday, 20 April 2006 06:33 (eighteen years ago) link

wha!? Volume 2 has the Peel Sessions with "Amazing Grace"/"The Star Bangled Banner" = it is teh awesome

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 20 April 2006 14:31 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah the Complete Works cds. Next time I'm in Glasgow I should have a look in FOPP and see if they have them for a fiver.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Thursday, 20 April 2006 14:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Vol 2 also has "Goin Down Slow" and the amazing single version of "Lay Back in the Sun"

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 20 April 2006 14:58 (eighteen years ago) link

volume 2 definitely has some great songs, it's got some filler and just feels more like an outtakes disc to me ... too repetitive in spots. and as a result, i never really listen to it. i think volume 1, on the other hand, actually holds up as an album. even though it has multiple versions of certain songs, it never feels like it's retreading ground.

rajeev (rajeev), Thursday, 20 April 2006 15:33 (eighteen years ago) link

(full disclosure - I don't actually own either volume! I do have almost all the singles/EPs tho)

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 20 April 2006 15:37 (eighteen years ago) link

(apart from the 3 "Pure Phase" era EPs which were stolen out of my friends car - bastards)

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 20 April 2006 15:38 (eighteen years ago) link

(those would be the "Let it Flow" CDs - green, red, and blue w/live Glastonbury stuff from '93 like "Clear Rush" and "Things Will Never Be the Same" which, of course, are not included on either Complete Works volume. BAH)

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 20 April 2006 15:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I have some of the early 7" and 12"s and the cd singles from the LAGWAFIS era. Which was before i stopped buying cd singles(when my local shop that sold cd singles closed down)

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy (Kerr), Thursday, 20 April 2006 15:54 (eighteen years ago) link

quick question: are the radcliffe sessions available anywhere? i taped over mine, like an idiot.

(um, computer says no: http://www.scrawnandlard.co.uk/released_sessions.htm but maybe decent bootlegs exist. maybe this is the grumpy dj mentioned above - i remember the conversations being a bit terse)

sister ray's last release email had the loops cd listed for a tenner btw.

koogs (koogs), Thursday, 20 April 2006 16:17 (eighteen years ago) link

I think the Radcliffe thing is what I have - I'll check when I get home. (Sample interviewer question: "I hear you don't like talking much.")

Shakey Mo Collier (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 20 April 2006 16:22 (eighteen years ago) link

('loops' cd is listed under j spaceman. they also list the above 'friendly fire' ep - http://www.sisterray.co.uk)

yes shakey, that was the style. there were two iirc. 'next track from spiritualized coming up. i'm not going to talk to them because, ha, they hate me. only joking... jason?' (band ignores dj and launches straight into song). radio 1 was only on medium wave at the time, i think, so recordings, the ones i didn't obliterate, are a bit fuzzy.

koogs (koogs), Thursday, 20 April 2006 16:24 (eighteen years ago) link

I have all that Radcliffe stuff (2 Sessions) and some Peel stuff on a bootleg cd.
