It is not on the Original Master Reel 02/24/1993 at all.

I have one outtake/alternate mix in terrible quality. That's all I know of. But there is more Mike Campbell guitar in it.

EDIT: Just listened and it's not that bad sounding! The mix is very different, guitars buzzing away, different keyboards here and there, percussion, and Stevie has different vocals near the end.

Thank you so much, Mike, for the complete set of the Glyn Johns versions! I was always missing a couple, and most I never had in lossless quality... so, as always, it's very much appreciated!!

Funny enough I dug around on my external drive and found what appears to be the version you just described. This is only 128Kbps so hopefully yours is better.

Kick It (alternate mix)

Always welcome, Jeff!

I accidentally put "Street Angel" on there; we should all have supported Stevie and bought Enchanted already.

Since working with the Street Angel Work Tapes the last few weeks, I went back to the Glyn Johns mixes, which I've always held in such disdain. I still despise his wimpy "Blue Denim" and shortened "Destiny" (and "Inspiration" and "Just Like A Woman"), but, overall, I love them all now as alternate choices. Stevie's "Docklands" has way more backing and extra vocals by Stevie, but the GJ Mix has its own charms (buried beneath a solid piece of armour).

I guess Sara & Sharon got paid extra to come back in and do more backing vocals to "Playing In God's Garden" (and Waddy!), but the Original Mix is chilling, too. I no longer hate it.

I heard the GJ Mix of "Greta" two weeks before Street Angel was released in the USA, and I got used to that little extra tripping guitar in it, although I prefer Stevie's Mix, which drives harder and accentuates her vocals better.

And if I've helped in any way to make Street Angel not so hated... well, to quote "Priest Of Nothing": "I'm happy now!"

NO ONE knows how HORRIBLE it was on the Internet in 1995, when Stevie's staunchest fans were rejecting her and blasting her and just HATING her period. I got into so many fights! The AOL Stevie Boards were ENDLESS HATRED of Stevie by her own fans, who'd rather she'd died in an overdose after the "Gypsy" video was filmed, rather than her betraying their own rigid expectations of her.

And that Glyn Johns "Unconditional Love" is really pretty nice. Maybe it's the losslessness???

Maybe that's the difference: GJ focused on the instruments, not Stevie and her persona?

yes, this link doesn't work!
wasn't there also another version or another mix of "Violet & Blue" recorded or remixed for either "TimeSpace" or "Street Angel"????

I'll re-upload that link in the morning.

"Violet And Blue" was remixed (not re-recorded) in October 1990 for TimeSpace by Chris Lord-Alge, along with "Sleeping Angel", "Battle Of The Dragon" and "Blue Lamp".

Even in 1997 and 98ish when I first came to this board people were still dissing the SA period. It was nothing compared to the OLD Stevie that was reborn out of the SA era after she ditched Klonapin, got rid of the big boobs, lost 75lbs, and started singing like she used to sound. I think everyone back then hated SA era.

I know V&B has surfaced because I have it and SA is on Enchanted. If I recall correctly, the Chris Lord-Alge remix of Battle is on the UK CD single of "Sometimes It's A Bitch" correct? I seem to remember it sound slightly different, but what about "Blue Lamp"? Has that surfaced Mike? If so can you post that one? I don't have it and would love to

Is the Chris Lord Alge remix of "Battle" also on the special Japan CD EP?

"Violet And Blue" and "Blue Lamp" are only on the Master Reels. ***

"Battle Of The Dragon" is on A Hard Game To Play CD-EP (Japan) and the UK "Sometimes It's A Bitch" CD-single. (I think it is much clearer).

"Sleeping Angel" is on Enchanted.

***I will add those to my list to upload in the morning.

Sweet - and check your PM ;-)

Thanks, Travis!

And I already fixed "Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind" ~ it was missing the last character in the link.

And that's the decision I disagree with most. How she swapped in Docklands, a song she didn't write and kick off any of those songs she did in fact write. Grr. I would have preferred i Call You Missing or If You Were My Love over that damn song lol

mind posting the take 5 of Julia? I have a bunch but none labeled as take 5
