firecrackerschön. sind ja aber leider nur 3 songs dabei, die nicht auf der the flying burrito bros auch schon drauf sind, find ich ´n bischen schade. november nights in der band-version hätt` man da mal noch draufpacken sollen, und can´t take it anymore… sind die noch irgendwo anders drauf, als auf der compilation, dessen tracklist sweetheart revolution gepostet hat?!
Nein, nur auf der „Fallen Angels“ in diesen feinen Versionen vertreten. Sonst nirgends. Außerdem hätten diese beiden Tracks („November Nights“ und „Just Can’t Take It Anymore“) auf der Sleepless Nights auch nichts zu suchen.
Ich zitiere wieder die Liner Notes von Sid Griffin:
“They date from 1965 and are both Gram originals performed by his International Submarine Band. They were recorded for RCA in New York City at the behest of Gram’s friend Marty Ehrlichman with whom Gram had lived with in Manhattan the previous summer. Ehrlichman worked for Barbara Streisand and had considerable recording industry clout having already arranged for Gram and Co. to musically back up their mutual friend ex-child actor (Shane) Brandon DeWilde at his RCA audition. (De Wilde’s passing was later immortalised by Gram in the first verse of „In My Hour Of Darkness“.) At the end of De Wilde’s audition the International Submarine Band were allowed to quickly demo two songs. Now you are allowed to hear them. They are the first unearthed studio recorded Gram Parsons originals to officially see the light of day for many years and they have, at the risk of great understatement, a very real historical value. Sadly they will probably be the last new Gram songs we will ever hear.“
Also weit entfernt von dem Zeitalter der Burritos.
