Different "I Know I'm Not Wrong"?

[Johnny Stew]

I was surprised the alternate mix was included on the recent remaster/reissue. I had assumed the original vinyl mix would be restored to the main CD and that the alternate mix would be included on the second disc.

Since the band had to listen to and approve these remastered discs, I wonder if Lindsey prefers that alternate mix to the original.

I'm also kind of surprised that no one's ever ripped the original version from a cassette source, so that we could have a clean, hiss & pop-free mp3 of it.

yeah, I bought the remaster and skipped immediately to 15 on the original disc, going huh? Sara restored and this one not??????

I still don't understand.

The CD version also features background vocals that don't appear on the vinyl version. It sounds like Stevie, but this has never been confirmed. Lindsey sings pretty high in this song, so it could be him. If you listen to the last verse starting at 1:56, you'll notice the new vocals.

Sorry this recording isn't better. I found these online somewhere, I believe the first one is the original mix of I Know I'm Not Wrong, while the second is the extra added material from the CD remix.

The Tusk CD remix is basically the original mix in one channel (left or right, I don't remember) with all the extra stuff (drums, background vocals, other instruments) on the other. Listen to the two tracks I've uploaded here and you can really tell the difference.

Cool! How many of this fab trash is out there? Put this aside of the three versions on the remaster, put a FM-tusktourrehearsalversion, a FM-2004 and a LB2006version upon that and we have a fullblown IKINW-album with totally different tracks on it!!!! Thanks for posting!...and yes....The first version you put here is still my fave: more space and that delicate high vocal: so much emotion!

Great! It was annoying that the track I like the most had been changed on the CD. And it was no improvement. My turntable doesn't work so it`s been a couple of years that I haven`t been able to listen to the original track.
I love it. Thanks!

When I first got the CD of Tusk I almost couldn't bear to listen to I Know I'm Not Wrong because I hated the changes so much. I have gotten used to it but I still prefer the sparseness of the original - thanks so much for posting it!

I, too, prefer the original mix of "I Know I'm Not Wrong", and looked forward to hearing it again (Why did I ever get rid of that turntable!?). Unfortunately the link above is no longer valid. Can anyone point me in the direction of an mp3 of the orgiinal mix?

4 - demo version #1 (2004)
5 - demo version #2 (2004)
6 - demo version #3 (2004)
7 - 2015 remastered version
8 - 'Alternate Tusk' version (2015)
9 - demo version #1 (2015)
10 - demo version #2 (2015)
11 - demo version #3 (2015)
12 - demo version #4 (2015)
13 - demo version #5 (2015)

Can you clarify something for me? Are numbers 3 and 7 (the 2004 and 2015 remasters) actually new mixes never heard before, or are both remasters of the original CD 1988 CD mix?

Also, is the new 2015 vinyl version the same as the 2015 CD version, or is one or both the same as the 1979 vinyl version?

On the sleeve of disc 1 it says '2015 Remaster', so I assumed that the songs have another mix than the 2004 remaster; I haven't listened too closely yet to draw any conclusions (the same goes for both DVD mixes).

There are no remixes of the 1988 CD mix (the one with the background vocals and some extra instruments on the right channel); I think all the new ones are remixes of the original 1979 vinyl version.

I haven't listened to (any of) the vinyl records yet.

I'm thinking it wasn't even that thought out. It could have simply been a case of the record company sending whatever master tapes they had to the producers. A similar thing happened when Stevie's Enchanted box set was released and contained different mixes of all the Street Angel tracks. Someone later asked ICE Magazine about this, and they explained that when the producers requested the tracks from Atlantic, they got tracks from the early unreleased Street Angel sessions.
