This is labelled Sisters Of The Moon (Mistake), and it must be from a rehearsal of some kind.. Couldn't say with certainty it's Mirage era, but I'm sure someone here will be able to clarify the context. The instrumentation sounds very similar to other Mirage era recordings.
When it gets to 'So we make our choices..' they stop and Stevie witters on for a minute or so, then it cuts off and they carry on from Lindsey's vocal part. She gets it wrong again but they carry on and play to the end.

Definitely from '82... thanks for sharing Sian! :D It's fascinating to hear how this song evolved into the monster it eventually became.

It isn't a "recorded" early version, it was a bootlegged concert performance. "Recorded" largely implies that it is a studio take. A simple word can turn the meaning into something it's not, and it gets very confusing!:confused:

I was gonna say it yesterday, but he's right. It's a bit of a teaser for a song featured on a future album, sort of how Pixar sometimes sticks easter eggs for future movies in their current movies (for example, towards the end of Monsters Inc., Boo starts handing Sully some of her toys, one of them being a stuffed clownfish, a hint for the next movie, Finding Nemo) and I even saw a vid of that from around that same time on YouTube

Does the fact that the next line says "Live in Baton Rouge" not clear that up? :confused:

Anyway, Thanks for sharing Liam. I LOVE this version :-)

The version on the "Mirage" concert is the rehearsal. The actual live version was too scary to be shown on video.

Since this thread was supposed to be about Mirage rehearsals, lets talk about the Mirage rehearsals. I wish there was a professional polished soundboard of this. Its so good. Really good versions of Straight Back and Gypsy. Stevie has some really great vocals and then she seems like she is mailing it in since its a rehearsal. They keep restarting Sara which I cant understand why. Chris says something like "its not the piano" I could listen to those restarts all day. Chris sings Dreams and in the early days of the internet there used to be a Chris version of Gypsy going around. Makes you wonder why Chris was singing Stevie songs during rehearsal. Was Stevie ditching rehearsals? But I may have tied the connection (will I get some ribbons and some bows?)
In the Mirage limo tapes we hear Chris say she wants Lindsey to sing one of her songs. I am just assuming she is talking about rehearsal. Stevie comments something like she would like to but couldn't sing one of Chris's songs (something like that). I wonder if they were driving to rehearsals and this is why Chris was singing Stevie songs? Just a theory.
Was there not a Tusk limo tape too? I enjoy the limo tape to a point. But listening to people really high and stoned gets annoying because they focus on the dumbest stuff. Stevie wont shut up and Mick keeps telling her "will you let me talk?" Then he says she's out to lunch :lol: They argue and debate about the dumbest stuff. Stevie again asking "Does anyone have any pot?" Then I swear you hear her say the word "coke" It also sounds like someone is constantly raking coke before the drive and during the drive. It was Mick that secretly recorded these? That's creepy. It sounds like they are leaving Mirage rehearsals. Its a real time stamp because Stevie is talking about Robin's cancer treatment.

Great stuff. Love how they worked out those harmonies for Hold Me.

I know. I love it. I loved Chris's idea that Lindsey should sing one of her songs. Too bad it was not recorded if that ever happened.
It was a magical time.
I love when Mick keeps telling Stevie. YES YOU DID speak to J.C. (John Courage) and she kept saying no I didn't. Stevie was high as a kite and I loved it when Mick told her she was "out to lunch." :lol:

She is SO funny!
Its like when she said during the Tusk tour she would drink a bottle of champagne and do cocaine all night and it made her play better. Then she says, maybe someone can tell me otherwise?

:lol:

Of course Mick was right because J.C. told Mick what Stevie had told her. Mick even tried to explain that to her but she was in her own world. He just keeps saying "Will you let me talk"

It's so good to hear her voice! Especially, displaying the personality that I adored all these years.

One thing is consistent. Stevie does not shut up. She just keeps talking.
