The running order is the same, but the only thing you get 100% of is Intro & Outro. The rest, well can you spot what's missing..?
'Yes!' I hear from the back, well ok...
I've been a huge fan of this album since 1973 when i heard it as a nine yr old. We had the tape, and I took it on holiday and played it on my Hanimax portable cassette.
Thanks to the recent purchase of the Pioneer amp, the fact my laptop has a mic input, other modern tech like Wavosaur capture sound recording software coming into the orbit of my conscious , the perfect storm developed. These things all came together, like a US super-storm off the East Coast: tech, chance and the idea.
The credits state 5days in the making, but that was for the video. The sound track first seen around 2:45 in moviemaker timeline audio track) took a week to get to the final happy with edit.
I've written to Mr O'Sullivan to ask his permission for using the music and am waiting his approval...gulp. I hope he likes it!! **edit September 2014....not heard from Gilbert Himself, but did get word from a fan whose video with Les and Gilbert is featured in this video, the gist of which must remain between us for reasons of National Security. But I can tell you not to worry about missing anything. I know and it's made absolutely no difference to my life or lifestyle. I have thought about it a few times though ;o)**
