Re: (TV) 1986 lost album

[Phil Obbard <pobbard@yahoo.com>]

Hi Rex,

That's right -- at least two versions of "Scientist" were recorded during the '86 sessions; one made it to the FLASHLIGHT (the only track recorded during those sessions to do so) and one (known as the "Paris Version") was released as a b-side. "One Time at Sundown" was re-recorded for FLASHLIGHT; the original was released as a b-side.

When I put together that "lost album" (assuming we're talking about the same one -- see Keith Allison's review here: http://www.thewonder.co.uk/vanity.htm) I had access to a hard-to-find tape source of the "Paris Version", which was nice.

If I'm right, there are a total of 9 tracks released from the sessions,
including the original "One Time at Sundown" that was re-recorded for Flash
Light, and the alternate substantially different mix of "Scientist"; you
might count the Flash Light version of "Scientist" as #10, since it was
tracked for the lost album.  Is that right?  If there's anything else
floating around, I'd really really like to know about it!
