Hi all

Can anyone point me in the direction of the best versions of the following songs? Ideally on this site.

Rupert The Riley
Trying To Get To Heaven
Tired Of My Life
How Lucky You Are (Miss Peculiar)
Mother
Imagine

I have copies but there seems to be better sounding versions on Youtube - which surely must have been sourced from bootlegs. I hate taking mp3 copies from Youtube and there must be lossless versions somewhere arent there?

Any help appreciated.

Many thanks all.

Weirdly as good as all the versions on EMI Masters are, I still think the Youtube one I found for How Lucky You Are (Miss Peculiar) is better.

The vocals are much clearer and to the front. That may not have been the original intention but I prefer it.

I wonder where that came from unless someone has done some 'remastering'.....

Thanks again.

hello Philjw:

are we talking about the "version" that NorthernPorkChop upped to youtube March 10,2016 ?
"He" clearly labels it as MONO REMASTER and under comments "I've done my best efforts
to remaster it."

Perhaps there was a STEREO version you heard, with a different "studio vocal mix" ?

Thats the one.......I should have read the comments more carefully!

It does say remastered (and its a good job in my opinion) though I cant see where it says only from mono.

There is also a really good Silver CD set called "The Trident Tapes" that has the EMI Tape content included on it and the whole disc is one of the better of the recent batch of discs.
Here's the info file from the rip I did of it (which should be on the site somewhere):


David Bowie - The Trident Tapes

2016 Not On Label edition, TTCD001
https://www.discogs.com/David-Bowie-The-Trident-Tapes/release/9240990

A collection of unreleased demos, alternate versions and mixes.
Recorded at Trident Studios, Soho, London between 1970 and 1972

Lineage: Original Silver > Flac L8 > you


01. Tired Of My Life
02. The Shadowman
03. How Lucky You Are
04. I've Got Lightning
05. Looking For A Friend
06. Rupert The Riley
07. Bombers (alternate mix)
08. Amsterdam (alternate mix)
09. Velvet Goldmine (alternate mix)
10. Round And Round (alternate mix to B-Side of "Drive-In Saturday)
11. Holy Holy (spiders version) (alternate version)
12. All The Young Dudes (spiders version)
13. London Bye Ta-Ta (alternate stereo mix)
14. The Prettiest Star (original mono single version)
15. Starman (original single version)
16. Conversation Piece

Notes.
This edition would appear to be made from the beautiful quality "EMI Demos" tape (tracks 1-6) with the addition of various alternate takes, versions or mixes for the others.
