Edit: This is crazy. Not only that, but it appears they were sourced from MP3 files. This is the frequency cutoff for both those tracks: http://15.2.i.getapic.me/4il5.png http://15.2.i.getapic.me/4il8.png What did they do, source them from MP3 files of a bad vinyl rip found on P2P? |

Re: Beaucoup Fish - 4 CD Remastered Deluxe Box Set (8/25/2017)
Mild spoilers i guess so skip this post if you want to avoid that.
Definitely recognisable stuff in there. Mostly the stuff that's named after final tracks. At least two of them aren't that interesting in my opinion. At least one of them has elements of multiple final tracks in it. Liked the demos overall but feels like there's something missing. Explains where some live elements of the time came from. No intros with rick saying the song's working name and stuff. But there is studio dialogue there at the end of one track.

Re: Beaucoup Fish - 4 CD Remastered Deluxe Box Set (8/25/2017)
Yup, my thoughts exactly. The drumline from Shout Twice. And that drumline shows up again in Something Like a Mama Alt Mix. Rick must have really liked that drumline to try to fit it in so many times.
Some other thoughts: Push Upstairs Alt 1 - This must have been an early bassline and it's pretty much the same as heard at Eurockéennes Festival that same month. The bassline was then used in The Large Unit remix. The vocal delivery on Nifter reminds me of Skym. I wonder if it's all part of the same vocal session, laid down to a different musical track. |

Re: Beaucoup Fish - 4 CD Remastered Deluxe Box Set (8/25/2017)
I like "Yeah Plan" a lot..... "Trim" vibe
kinda odd no Cappe-Ffuno ... from the Australia session. that session would have made a good cd on its own.

Re: Beaucoup Fish - 4 CD Remastered Deluxe Box Set (8/25/2017)
after a quick review of the demo tracks, and the 2nd disc of mixes,
these are my thoughts (and intentions)... ------------------------ Disc Two 1. Nifter (5 A1317 Nov 97) 4:37 ------------------------------- a slow mellow song, with lyrics that sound familiar, kind of like skym 2. Bruce Lee (Ricks 1st Dobro Mix) 5:10 ---------------------------------------- pretty much like the album version, maybe a little more raw sounding kinda has a bluesy vibe going on 3. UW Orange Bed (Sept97) 7:01 ------------------------------ we've heard these sounds before, on some web tracks, and elsewhere on lemon jams.. still pretty cool 4. Skym (A A1317 Nov 97) 4:54 ------------------------------ a pretty mellowed out version, not really that different 5. Jumbo (Diff Bass 2 A1317 Nov 97) 7:49 ---------------------------------------- i like the different beats, and the background keyboards, don't think they played a version of this live.. 6. Push Upstairs (Alt 1 A1336 July 98) 3:54 -------------------------------------------- shorter, more intense version of the song, a little more electro and fuzzy sounding 7. King Of Snake (Garage Mix A1313 Set 97b) 8:55 ------------------------------------------------ yet another raw version, but very basic with the sounds, definitely might have heard a version like this live 8. Something Like A Mama (Alt Mix A1340 July 98 A Upstairs) 10:10 ------------------------------------------------------------------ sounds like the web jam version, nice and extended 9. Please Help Me 7:35 ---------------------- same as prior release 10. Yeah Plan (From A1385) 4:11 -------------------------------- very interesting, noodley sounding track, wonder where this would have gone if they used it on the album 11. Ramajama 8:55 ----------------- awesome, problably the best upbeat track, with cool vocals, and beats and synths that they've used live many times. Disc Four 1. Bruce Lee (DJ Hype & DJ Zinc Vocal Mix) 6:40 2. Bruce Lee (DJ Hype & DJ Zinc Instrumental Mix) 6:33 -------------------------------------------------------- having heard the first mix before, these are basically 2 drum and bass remixes of the track, not bad 3. Bruce Lee (Futureshock Remix) 8:11 ------------------------------------- a much more electro sounding version of the song, well done and polished in the futureshock style, very 4 to the floor beat with it. 4. King Of Snake (Claudio Coccoluto Remix) 8:23 5. King Of Snake (Martinez Remix) 7:52 --------------------------------------- 2 of the 3 italo disco versions of the song, unfortunately, the sound quality is not very good, even though the mixes are pretty good. nice electro sounds, and discoey beat to them. 6. King Of Snake (Dave Angel Remix) 6:54 ----------------------------------------- from one of the first promos for the song, this mix stays true to the original, including the house piano parts 7. Jumbo (Rob Rives & Francois Kevorkian Dub) 8:20 --------------------------------------------------- nice radical dub version, with the rives and kevorkian touch of extending it, but keeping the original elements in it 8. Push Upstairs (Roger S Narcotic Haze Dub) 6:43 9. Push Upstairs (Adam Beyer Rmx 2) 4:42 ------------------------------------------- 2 more promo mixes. the roger s mix, is much more of a stripped down marching beat put to it. the adam beyer remix is a super intense beat heavy and dramatic chord version... nice to see them here. ================================================== ====== i think the addition of these tracks and discs makes it worthwhile to me and collectors don't know why the sound quality is low on the 2 king of snake mixes, i guess the high res versions might be better? they had extra time on the 2 remix discs, so they could have squeezed more onto them. oh well. so is this it for the super deluxe versions? probably for me.. unless they really pull something out .. beaucoup fish is what got me into them, and even though its not my favorite album, seeing them live several times, and collecting the tracks, finding the dirtylist and more is what kept me a fan all these years. nice to see the tracks getting their dues. later -1 |

Re: Beaucoup Fish - 4 CD Remastered Deluxe Box Set (8/25/2017)
As I mentioned earlier, the 2 Italian KOS remixes appear to be sourced from MP3 vinyl rips played at the wrong speed. I'll reach out to some people and see if I can confirm. I can't fathom how this happened. As it is, I can't recommend those tracks on the box set over a copy of the Italian CD.

Re: Beaucoup Fish - 4 CD Remastered Deluxe Box Set (8/25/2017)
I kinda wish they included "8 Ball" on this. I always felt it could have fit perfectly within the album and came out during this era. But we didn't "Oh" on the previous boxset either.
