you have to keep in mind that this is only a demo.
I'm sure if he wanted he could do great version, which even you would like hehe

I heard Spider doing Redemption song. IT SOUNDS LIKE SHIT! COMPLETE SHIT! He must have been on crack, heroin, jack daniels, etc.

If you don't have it already, don't get your hopes up on that one.

Waiting for Herb out-takes are fantastic, some of the Falconer are ok.

Yeah that one I've heard

Redemption Song was on the Falconer Demos, was it not? I have heard live versions of a few of the songs but not the demos unfortunately, people can be a bit stingy with demos.....I do hope that they would appear in any future box set.

Actually, on reflection, Spider's vesion of Bob's "Redemption Song" may have been a demo, not an outtake. It was all soooooooooooo long ago. 8)

There are very few PEACE AND LOVE outtakes that have not already appeared. All I can remember are NICARAGUA LIBRE, REDEMPTION SONG and THE MISTLE THRUSH, none of which were full band performances. And CONTACT YOURSELF, of course. :wink:


Redemption Song? Is it a Bob Marley cover? I am very interested in hearing this... Joe Strummer and Johnny Cash did a nice cover of it as well.

Am I thinking of the right tune?

It's my fond hope that the oft rumored Box Set is produced in the same style as the Velvet Underground one. The released tracks book-ended with demos and unreleased tracks.

Demos, rarities, album, rarities, demos, next album, etc. Of course some of the velvet's demos are ... ummm ... well, crap (recorded in a closet with a two-track, etc). But it's interesting hearing how the songs evolved, the difficulties the band had playing the songs, etc.

Post by philipchevron Thu Dec 01, 2005 8:49 pm

Yes, all these recordings exist 8)
