there we go, that's what I need. used to have the Ed's Babe CD single but sold it.

It's a great CD; Conway Paton put it together. The Fall: Early Singles is good too but I still hope there might be better sources out there for those kamera sides (which are sometimes my very favorite fall stuff, period)

speaking of Kamera releases, does the legendary withdrawn "Marquis Cha-Cha"/"Room To Live" single have the same versions as the LP?

Sometimes Look, Know/I'm Into C.B. is my favorite Fall single

you guys have to buy this too. you have to buy everything.

hmm yeah that one's a bit more comprehensive but it's really just the three 2CD reissues in a box, unlike Jon's single-disc comp it has "Arid Al's Dream" so I will probably end up with the 6CD set...

Yeah fucking Arid Al's Dream which is probably my favorite of all the 90s odds and sods

I think it also turned up one other place. The sanctuary Box Set?

It's on the indispensable "A World Bewitched 1990-2000" comp.

Gerald McBoing-Boing, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 17:59 (six years ago) link

Oh yeah! That comp really is excellent. It looks like it's going to be one of those many ripoff comps but it's awesome

Can only underline how great A World Bewitched is. I've handed it to a couple of people not familiar with the Fall as a portal into their work and I've had about a 50% success rate. Which is not half bad is it?

argh I need that one eventually for the collaboration tracks on the 2nd disc.

sleeve, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 19:22 (six years ago) link

You really do! It's amazing how MES can make any band into The Fall.

And my favorite 90s oddity is "Noel's Chemical Effluence". Totally alien sounding.

Gerald McBoing-Boing, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 21:25 (six years ago) link

that song is so goddamn great.

harbinger of failure (Jon not Jon), Tuesday, 19 September 2017 22:12 (six years ago) link

originally from The 27 Points, right? I think that's the only version out there.

sleeve, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 22:13 (six years ago) link

yes

thanks to this thread I snarfed up used copies of the 2CDs for Extricate and Shift-work from a US address with cheap shipping, looking forward to finally hearing those "So What About It" remixes

sleeve, Thursday, 21 September 2017 22:06 (six years ago) link

really want to hear "Where's The Fuckin Taxi? Cunt (Mix 17)" - also not on this new box which is especially annoying because they do include one of the four tracks from the CD release

Sounds more or less exactly half bad, one way or another.
