You can definitely hear Terry on Slick 66. He doubles Tricky's vocal on
several of the lines. He sounds like he's on a megaphone with the volume
turned down. It's a spoken vocal. Once you realise how much he is on it
you'll definitely want it on your list, I think!
Have you got a record player? I ask because I've only just got one of those
USB ones so I can play vinyl for the first time in about a decade! I've
ripped a decent quality MP3 off the 12" and removed most of the crackle from
it. As I know you've already bought the record I don't mind sending the MP3
to you, but I haven't got one of those rapidshare accounts.
The Toots thing is one of very few Terry collaborations that I've not tried
to get on loads of formats. I have a couple. When I get bored one night with
my insomnia I'll no doubt empty my wallet pointlessly ordering some more.
That's usually how it works.
I have so much Silent Poets stuff I really should be a fan of theirs and not
just of Sugar Man! Still want the 12" of Hiroshi Fujiwara's Getting Over You
though!
Re Shakespears Sister, I'm confused now. Despite what Amazon say in their
email, they still have it listed as being released on November 16.
"Unfortunately, the release date for the item(s) listed below was changed by
the supplier, and we need to provide you with a new estimated delivery date
based on the new release date:
Shakespears Sister "Songs Fromred Room"
Estimated arrival date: November 19 2009 - November 23 2009"
Mind you the price has dropped since I pre-ordered it, so it's not all bad!
