ruudtes 60s music - stereo remixes & processed 'stereo' - 1

Edit for headphones, February 2022. A song from the 1968 album "Alive And Well In Argentina".
About Zal: mostly self-taught, he began playing folk music in coffee houses in Toronto. He lived on a kibbutz in Israel for a short time before returning to Canada. He teamed with fellow Canadian Denny Doherty in "The Halifax Three". The two joined Cass Elliot in "The Mugwumps". At this time he met John Sebastian, and they formed "The Lovin' Spoonful" with Steve Boone and Joe Butler. According to John Sebastian: "He could play like Elmore James, he could play like Floyd Cramer, he could play like Chuck Berry. He could play like all these people, yet he still had his own overpowering personality. Out of this we could, I thought, craft something with real flexibility."

Not an edit. An interesting cover of The Rolling Stones' "She's a rainbow". It is from the reissue album - however, an unusual version of it - of World Of Twist's album "Quality Street". This unusual version (a bonus cd) has 15 songs, instead of 13, with this one extra, and the song "Kick Out The Jams (Live)".

The original line-up of the band consisted of James Fry (vocals), Andrew Hobson (bass), Gordon King (guitar), Tony Ogden (drums), Rory Conolly (saxophone), Nick Phillips (organ) and Andy Robbins (synthesiser). This version soon disintegrated, and some years later a new line-up emerged, this time based in Manchester.

A short lived 1986 version of World of Twist featured Gordon King (vocalist and co-songwriter), Tony Ogden (co-songwriter), Andy Hobson (Bass, Keyboards), Neil Drabble (Visuals).

The 1989 version of World Of Twist featured Tony Ogden (now vocalist and co-songwriter), Gordon King (guitar and co-songwriter), and Andy Hobson (synthesisers) joined by Alan Frost (visual effects, synthesisers), Julia aka M.C. Shells (swirls and sea noises) and Angela Reilly (visual effects). Nick Sanderson (drums) joined some time later.

Edit for headphones, April 2022. A song from their 1970 album "Wishbone Ash". Wishbone Ash isn't really my cup of tea, but as the vocals are to the far right on this song, and also because the second version with the vocals centered on the album "First Light" isn't by far as good as the first version, I decided to make a remix. (Though it must be mentioned that the second version should be considered the first version, as it was recorded in the seventies, before the album "Wishbone Ash".)(The album "First Light" was recorded in the seventies, but only released in 2007.)

BLIND EYE
(Andrew Powell, David Alan Turner, Martin Robert Turner, Steven Upton)

you turned a blind eye t'everything I ever said
you turned a blind eye t'everything I ever did

you didn't worry, wh'I called your telephone
you didn't worry baby
you're j'st content to roam around

you turned a blind eye t'everything I ever said
you turned a blind eye t'everything I ever did

you didn't worry, when I called your telephone
you didn't worry baby
you're just content to roam around yes you are

Edit for headphones. Wilko Johnson (born John Peter Wilkinson, 12 July 1947) is an English singer, guitarist and songwriter, particularly associated with the rhythm and blues band Dr. Feelgood in the 1970s. Johnson and Dr Feelgood have been credited as one of the founding influences of the English punk movement. Paul Weller has said of Johnson: "Wilko may not be as famous as some other guitarists, but he's right up there. And there are a lot of people who'll say the same. I can hear Wilko in lots of places. It's some legacy."
says wikipedia

Music career

Born in Canvey Island, Essex, Johnson went to Westcliff High School for Boys and played in several local groups, before attending the University of Newcastle upon Tyne to study for a BA in English Language and Literature. His undergraduate course included early Anglo-Saxon and ancient Icelandic sagas. After graduating, he travelled overland to India, before returning to Essex to play with the Pigboy Charlie Band. The band evolved into Dr. Feelgood – a mainstay of the 1970s pub rock movement. After returning from Goa, Johnson worked in 1972, for less than a year, as an English teacher.

In 1965 Johnson bought his first Fender Telecaster from a shop in Southend, Essex for £90 (around $150) (£1,475 as of 2014).[9][10] He still plays a vintage 1962 Fender Telecaster with rosewood fingerboard which he bought in 1974, shortly after Dr. Feelgood signed their first record deal. Originally of sunburst-colored body with white pickguard, Johnson later refinished it in black and added a red pickguard.

Johnson developed his own image, coupling jerky movements on stage (his so-called "duck walk") with a choppy guitar style and a novel dress sense (he favoured a black suit and a pudding bowl haircut). He achieved his playing style by not using a pick but instead relying on fingerstyle. This enabled him to play rhythm guitar and riffs or solos at the same time creating a highly percussive guitar sound. It evolved from a failed attempt to copy Mick Green of Johnny Kidd and The Pirates, a guitarist whom Johnson greatly admired. His style formed the essential driving force behind Dr. Feelgood during their initial years, including the band's first four albums, Down by the Jetty, Malpractice, Stupidity and Sneakin' Suspicion, all released between 1975 and 1977.

The live album, Stupidity, reached number one in the UK Albums Chart, but although Johnson played on Dr. Feelgood's first 5 single releases, including "Roxette" and "Back in the Night", the only single to chart during his membership of the band was "Sneakin' Suspicion". He left the band in April 1977, following disagreements over the tracks to be included in the Sneakin' Suspicion album. Johnson maintains that he was kicked out of the band, which then put about the story that he had left voluntarily.

In 1977, he was a founding member of Solid Senders, with keyboardist John Potter, bassist Steve Lewins, and drummer Alan Platt. They signed to Virgin in 1978.

Edit for headphones.
Official release was recorded August 3 - 11, 1966, released on "Between the Buttons" in February of 1967.
This one is from the bootleg cd "Genuine Black Box" by Scorpio.

YESTERDAY'S PAPERS (alternate text)
(Jagger/Richards)

Who wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
Who wants yesterdays papers
Nobody in the world

One more time!

Who wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
Who wants yesterdays papers
Nobody in the world

Well it took a long time to know what I learned
I caused so much pain and so much hurt
My freedom is right I really have to achieve
I finally realized it's a time to leave

Cause who wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
Who wants yesterdays papers
Well, nobody in the world

Well after every quarrel and every fight
I gave you love but you put me uptight
just waiting and trying as hard as I can
just, just never ever know
when you do it again

Cause I said, Who wants yesterdays papers
Who wants yesterdays girl
There ain't nobody in the world

So why should I stick with, yes, yesterday's papers
my, my, who wants yesterdays papers
there ain't noboby in the world

WISHFUL THINKER
(Jim Pembroke)

wishful thinker, how's today
where you going besides away
wishful thinker, what did you say
not long ago

I live within myself, and that's the way I'll stay
maybe that's the reason for the way you feel today
stay a while and speak with me, but if you can't, just say
tell me what's the reason for the way you feel today

I live within myself, and that's the way I'll stay
maybe that's the reason for the way you feel today

wishful thinker, why the sigh
what you saying besides goodbye
wishful, what did you say
not long ago

I live within myself, and that's the way I'll stay
maybe that's the reason for the way you feel today
stay a while and speak with me, but if you can't, just say
tell me what's the reason for the way you feel today

Edit for headphones. Picture by PAULLONDEN. Never released officially by the Rolling Stones.
From the bootleg album "Trident Mixes" by Dog n Cat Records (DAC 052).
Recorded March-May 1970 in Olympic Sound Studios, London/Stargroves, Newbury (Jagger's house). Others think it is an outtake from Olympic Studios recorded in 1963. Other sources say it was recorded at Trident Studios in late 1969, or early 1970. And others say it was recorded in Jamaica in 1972.

Edit (slight) for headphones, April 2022. A song from Warren Zevon's first album, the 1969 "Wanted Dead Or Alive". The album received almost no attention and did not sell well. I think it has some very nice songs.

TULE'S BLUES
(Warren Zevon)

oh Tule, it's on account of you that I've been weeping
here behind my hand
it's lonesome in my heart's land
as the sands of the desert

oh, tell me, why was it always you who, through the changes
you who always sang
and played while the green vespers rang
in the heart of the hillside

it's a sad song we always seem to be singing to each other
you and me sweet and slightly out of key
like the sound of a running down calliope

oh Tule, it's once I was your knight in golden armor
with the sun behind my hair
my music filled the air
with symbols and lightning

oh Tule, now can't you see I'm changing like the seasons
my hair is growing dark
and there's no room left in the ark
for a lark with a broken wing

it's a sad song we always seem to be singing to each other
and a child's voice so tender and out of tune
keeps a'praying I'll be singing home soon

oh Tule, it's on account of you that I'll be leaving
'cross the deep salt sea
whatever wild worlds I may see
will be empty without you

it's a sad song we always seem to be singing to each other
and a child's voice so tender and out of tune
keeps a'praying I'll be singing home soon

Edit (ext.) for heaphones. Recorded december 1963 in Regent Sound Studios London. Never released officially by the Rolling Stones (this kind of song must have been what their manager Andrew Oldham discarded as "syrupy sweet blech" from Mick & Keith's early songwriting efforts). The original song is only partly known and lasts only twenty seconds. I changed it from a twenty one seconds song into a one minute and twelve seconds song, including a needle-hickup-style fade out... The song is also known as "When a boy meets a girl".

WHEN A GIRL LOVES A BOY
(Jagger/Richards)

when a boy meets a girl
it's a kind of a game
one girl or another
to him they're the same
and if you telled her
to him they're the same

when a boy meets a girl
it's a kind of a game
when a boy meets a girl
it's a kind of a game

one girl or another
to him they're the same
and if you telled her
to him they're the same
and if you tell her
to him they're the same
to him they're the same
to him they're the same
to him they're the same

Edit for headphones of the famous mono single, the first hit single of Status Quo. Released January 5, 1968. Dubbed video. The single reached number four in (hurray for) Holland, number seven in the British charts (hurray Brittain for leaving sucking-us-empty EU), number eight in Canada, and number twelve on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming their only hit single in the United Retarded States... just joking... referring to their backward attitude towards Europe back then... and still, btw... 'cause they - in general - think Europe is all socialism... while it's all, well, almost all, big fat belly pocket liners, even the ones that call themselves socialists (who by the way play hardly any role anymore in Europe)(yes, their days are over), again, pocket liners, especially the ones that reside in Brussels, calling themselves united european rulers... but in fact they are united european thieves... the TRUE present day retarded are the Russians who believe whatever Putin and his henchmen tell them. Liars of the first order. They are raging a war in Ukraine & tell their people they're on a peace mission. Even the German Nazi's didn't lie that severly ! ! !

The "matchstick men" of the song refers to the paintings of L.S. Lowry, who made paintings with thin, spindly people on it. *

PICTURES OF MATCHSTICK MEN
(Francis Dominic Nicholas Rossi)

When I look up to the sky
I see your eyes, a funny kind of yellow
I rush home to bed, I soak my head
I see your face underneath my pillow
I wake next morning, tired still yawning
See your face come peeking through my window

Pictures of matchstick men and you
mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you

Windows echo your reflection
When I look in their direction gone
When will this haunting stop
Your face, it just won't leave me alone

Pictures of matchstick men and you
mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you

You in the sky, you with the sky
You make me cry, your eyes

You in the sky, you with this guy
You make men cry, you lie

Pictures of matchstick men and
Pictures of matchstick men and
Pictures of matchstick men and

Edit for headhphones, May, a day after mother's day 2022. You may not realize, but the mothers work hardest in every household... This is for you, mother! A song from the double album "The Vaudeville Years Of Fleetwood Mac 1968 to 1970". Released in 1998 this was a compilation of outtakes and unreleased tracks from the band's early line up, none of which had previously been officially released. The final stereo release of this song is on the album "Mr. Wonderful", but that one is so fast, so hasty, so studio, so... well, this one is b l u e s s s . . . & has a more lively feel to it. Dance mama!

YOU GOT THE SILVER
(Jagger/Richards)

hey babe what's in your eyes
I saw them flashing like airplane lights
you fill my cup babe that's for sure
I must come back for a little more

you got my heart you got my soul
you got the silver you got the gold
you got the diamonds from the mine
well that's all right, it'll buy some time

tell me honey, what will I do
when I'm hungry and thirsty too
feeling foolish and that's for sure
just waiting here at your kitchen door

hey baby, what's in your eyes
is that the diamonds from the mine
what's that laughing in your smile
I don't care, no, I don't care

oh babe, you got my soul
you got the silver, you got the gold
it's just your love, just leave me blind
I don't care, no, that's no big surprise

Edit 3 for headphones, October 2021. It's a remix of the version on the 1985 remastered album "Hot Rocks 1" (London 820 41-2)] (Has a shameless fade in!)
Recorded May 10-13, 1965. Released first as a US single June 6, 1965. Released on the US lp "Out Of Our Heads", July 1965. Released on the UK lp "Big Hits (High Tide And Green Grass)" November 4, 1966.

Acoustic guitar: Brian Jones. Electric guitar: Keith Richards (lead). Bass: Bill Wyman. Drums: Charlie Watts. Lead vocals & tambourine: Mick Jagger. Background vocals: Keith Richards. Piano & tambourine: Jack Nitzsche.

Richards ran his guitar through a Gibson Fuzz Box to create the distortion effect. He had no intention of using the sound on the record, but Gibson had just sent him the device, and he thought the Fuzz Box would create sustained notes to help sketch out the horn section. The band thought it sounded great and wanted to use the sound because it would be very unusual for a rock record. Richards thought it sounded gimmicky and did not like the result, but the rest of the band convinced him to ditch the horn section and use the distorted guitar sound.

Other info states that Ian Stewart (the sixth Stone) purchased another distortion box, for Keith Richards wasn't satisfied with the Gibson. The unknown brand proved to be better.

Robert Cross wrote: "Jagger and Richards originally thought the song was going to have a "country music" sound to it, almost a "novelty" (silly) song about a Nashville musician who finds the rapidly changing world of the 1960s has left him behind. Grand Old Opry stars had very bitter feelings toward "British Invasion" groups.
The bad grammar (double negative) of "can't get no" was supposed to be a dig at the low intelligence of country music artists and fans. Mick & Keith didn't appreciate all the vitriol (=cruel and bitter criticism) they were receiving from them."

(I CAN'T GET NO) SATISFACTION
(Jagger/Richards)

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

when I'm drivin' in my car
and a man comes on the radio
he's telling me more and more
about some useless information
supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no, oh no no no
hey hey hey, that's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
'cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

when I'm watchin' my tv
and a man comes on to tell me
how white my shirts can be
but he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
the same cigarrettes as me
I can't get no, oh no no no
hey hey hey, that's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no girlie action
'cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no

when I'm ridin' round the world
and I'm doin' this and I'm signing that
and I'm tryin' to make some girl
who tells me baby better come back later next week
'cause you see I'

Not an edit, May 2022. The song was recorded in April 1967 at American Sound Studio in Memphis in the sessions for the Sweet Inspiration's self-titled debut album produced by Tommy Cogbill and Tom Dowd. Spooner Oldham and Dan Penn had observed the recording session for two tracks intended for The Sweet Inspirations album, which moved Oldham to suggest to Penn that they two could write a stronger song for the group.
Oldham: "As we walked [from the studio] up the steps to [the company's] offices, Dan said: 'You got any ideas?' I said: 'What's wrong with 'Sweet Inspiration'?"
Working with a single guitar Oldham and Penn wrote "Sweet Inspiration" in between an hour to ninety minutes upstairs, then returned to the studio and ran through the song for the Sweet Inspirations and the other session personnel, Penn singing the song to Oldham's guitar accompaniment.
Producer Tom Dowd called for a lunch break.
Dan Penn: "Spooner had [the opening rolling guitar] lick down so good the musicians wouldn't go eat...They knew by what was happening we could [immediately] cut [the track]" which was completed in a single take.
Producer Dowd and his coterie on returning to the studio from their lunch break were played the completed track of "Sweet Inspiration".
Oldham: "We basically gave 'em a gift. It was fun to see a creative idea come to fruition in about three hours time."

Issued as the fourth single from The Sweet Inspirations album, "Sweet Inspiration" reached a Billboard Hot 100 peak of #18 in the spring of 1968 also ranking as high as #5 on Billboard's R&B chart.

SWEET INSPIRATION
(Dan Penn (born Wallace Daniel Pennington)/Linden "Spooner" Oldham)

I need your sweet inspiration

and in a bad situation

The song is about Van's happy life with his wife and about the Irish civil war that was raging in the seventies, caused by people who still don't understand Ireland is from the Irish. Just like tupelo honey is from the tupelo tree flowers. Don't need much education to understand that. But, hurray, the recent leaving the EU shows there's some progress...

TUPELO HONEY
(Van Morrison)

live version* lyrics:

you can take all the tea in China
put it in a big brown bag for me
sail right around seven oceans
drop it straight into the deep blue sea, because
she's as sweet as Tupelo honey
she's an angel of the first degree
she's as sweet as Tupelo honey
she's alright with me

they can't keep us on the road to freedom
they can't stop us 'cause our eyes can see
we got men with insight, we got men in granite
and some knights in armor bent on chivalry
she's as sweet as Tupelo honey
she's an angel of the first degree
she's as sweet as Tupelo honey
she's alright with me

YOU CAN'T CATCH ME
(Chuck Berry)

I bought a brand new airmobile
It was custom made
It was a Flight DeVille
With a poweful motor
And some hideaway wings
Push in on the button and you can hear her sing
Now you can't catch me
No, baby, you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze

New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours
I was rolling slowly 'cause of drizzlin' showers
Up come a flattop he was movin' up with me
Then come sailin' goodbye
In a little old suped up mini
I put my foot in my tank and I begin to roll
Moanin' sirens, was the state patrol
So I get out my wings and then I blew my horn
Bye-bye New Jersey I become airborne

Now you can't catch me
No, baby you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze

Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night
Wasn't no gray cloud floatin' in sight
Big full moon shinin' up above
Cuddle up honey be my love
Sweetest little thing that I ever seen
I'm gonna name you Mabelline
Flyin' with all the things set on flight control
Radio tuned to rock 'n' roll
Two, three hours passin' by
Altitude dropped to 505
Fuel consumption way too fast
Let's get on home before we run out of gas

Now you can't catch me
No baby, you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze

* this video is different from edit 1a, that video was blocked in the UK

Edit (of the mono song) for headphones. From the album "Connection 1963-66" (SAGA RS 1). All mono. Released Nov. 3, 1966.
A Jagger/Richard song that - sorry - sounds much better with Vashti than the version with Mick Jagger singing.
The song is also on Vashti's album "Some things just stick in your mind".*

"Some Things Just Stick In Your Mind - Singles and Demos 1964 to 1967" is a compilation album by Vashti Bunyan collecting her mid-sixties singles cuts (including the Jagger/Richards penned title track) with unreleased demos recorded at the time. Disc two features her recently rediscovered first studio demo session from 1964 in its entirety. A special limited-edition version adds four bonus tracks (numbers 14-17) to disc one.

Edit for a more lively listening experience...
Warren Cuccurullo plays a very complicated guitar solo of Frank Zappa BY HEART. At first he was a roadie of Zappa, but when Zappa - to his big astonishment - heard him performing this solo he immediately invited him to join the band.
Zappa's "Transylvania Boogie" is on the album "Chunga's Revenge".

With Joe Travers (drums), Wes Wehmiller(bass).
Live 1996 at Tower Records, 8801 Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood, California, promoting the album "Thanks 2 Frank".

WE WERE FALLING IN LOVE
(Jagger/Richards)

I caught a glimpse of waving hair
and with her fellow standing there
my feet just left the floor
she realized, I'm sure,
that we were falling in love

she looked around and smiled loudly
I tried to think of words to say
he never realized
under his very eyes
that we were falling in love

is he so blind that he can't see (ah ah ah ah)
that his girl had fallen for me (oh oh oh oh)

to take his love would take his heart
I knew I could not tear them apart
so as I turned to go
still he did not know
that we had fallen in love, in love, in love

Edit for headphones, April 2022. A song from Warren Zevon's first album, the 1969 "Wanted Dead Or Alive". Though the lyrics are plain inhuman, the music is a pure jewel. The great guitar part at the right in particular.This song was written with Paul Evans, who was the man who shot Ramona, and went to jail for it. It's a true story. Warren did the music, Paul wrote the lyrics (according to warrenzevon dot fandom dot com).

A BULLET FOR RAMONA
Paul Evans/Warren Zevon

oh today I shot Ramona, ma
she ain't gonna cheat on me
two years I've been searchin' for her
two years she's been free

well I found her in a dance hall in Laredo
and she told me that she wanted only me
and I held her in my arms the way I used to
but when morning came she begged me to set her free

oh today I shot Ramona, ma
she ain't gonna cheat on me
two years I've been searchin' for her
two years she's been free

well I tried and tried to ride away and leave her
with my head hung low, teardrops filled my eye
I rode back to town and found her with a drifter
and I knew right then Ramona had to die

oh today I shot Ramona, ma
she ain't gonna cheat on me
two years I've been searchin' for her
two years she's been free

well I'm writing you this letter from Laredo
and tonight I'll ride across the Rio Grande
if I never live to see another sunrise
you know I loved her ma, I hope you understand

oh today I shot Ramona, ma
she ain't gonna cheat on me
two years I've been searchin' for her
two years she's been free

oh today I shot Ramona, ma
she ain't gonna cheat on me
two years I've been searchin' for her
two years she's been free

Edit (rsg'65)(a very little bit edited) for headphones. This song was recorded on the British tv show "Ready Steady Go!" on the 15th January of 1965. I never heard this song before in a live performance, interesting recording. Not the best sound quality, but too interesting to let it lay around, isn't it?. The song is a Jagger/Richard composition.

The studio version was recorded on November 8, 1964 at the legendary Chess Records Studio in Chicago. Jewish quality = best quality... Released first in the US as B side to "Heart of Stone" on December 18, 1964. "What A Shame" was released on January 15, 1965 on the UK album "The Rolling Stones no. 2" by Decca Records, and February 13, 1965 on the US album "The Rolling Stones, Now!" by London Records.

The album "The Rolling Stones, Now!" is the third American studio album. The album mostly consists of songs released earlier in the United Kingdom.

The album reached number four on the Billboard 200 album chart and was certified "gold" by the Recording Industry Association of America. The liner notes on initial pressings contained producer Andrew Loog Oldham's advice to the record buying public:

(This is THE STONES new disc within. Cast deep in your pockets for loot to buy this disc of groovies and fancy words. If you don't have bread, see that blind man knock him on the head, steal his wallet and low and behold you have the loot, if you put in the boot, good, another one sold!)

This quote also appeared on some issues of the UK "Rolling Stones No.2" LP.

A month after the January 1965 release, the secretary of a British Blind Aid Association took offence to the suggestion that the blind might be a ready source of income for impoverished Stones fans who needed to raise cash to buy the album. The secretary was quoted in the press saying "They’re horrible. It’s putting ideas into people’s heads. I’m writing to Decca to ask them to change the cover."

The subject was even raised in the House of Lords – Lord Conesford asked the Director of Public Prosecutions whether the sleeve constituted "a deliberate incitement to criminal action".*

Sir Edward Lewis, Chairman of Decca Records played dumb. "I am told that this inscription was meant to be humorous, but I’m afraid this jargon does not make sense to me" he said, and recalled the offending album sleeves, or on some he arranged for a sticker to be placed over the offending paragraph.

On later releases of the sleeve the text between brackets only read:
(This is THE STONES new disc within. Cast deep in your pockets for loot to buy this disc of groovies and fancy words)."
Which, by the way, is a typing error, for the dot must be placed before the close parenthesis...
