Posted November 26, 200915 yr In the Butch in Japan video thread, Flynny refers to a "Dave Burton custom job" to explain an alternative vocal to the "Cigarette ashes" backing track. So what were these custom jobs? Any more?
November 26, 200915 yr It's the vocal to Sidra's Theme that Dave did for a laugh in Hong Kong with a very good black vocalist. It was a one-off there aren't any others. He's a good lyricist mind!

November 26, 200915 yr Sidra's theme? Is Flynny wrong then about the "Cigarette ashes" vocal in the Butch video? Dunno, probably as I think Sidra's the only one Dave did, I've not seen the video though.
November 27, 200915 yr Dave did the Sidras Theme one, two Larry Hammond tracks and another that uses the backing to one of the Topper label tracks, forget at the minute which one and the name of the artist.

November 27, 200915 yr Brain's waking up...one of the Larry Hammond tracks uses the Happiness Is Here backing called Whenever I'm With You.

November 28, 200915 yr Well i didn't know the little rascal was a serial offender. The one to Sidra's was very good but the vocals were way too high in the mix and he didn't have the separate channels to even them out otherwise I'd have played it.
November 28, 200915 yr there is also a "6x6" vocal . i also have a photo of larry hammond , when i find it i will post it here. dave did the tracks about 10 years ago if my memory is correct

November 28, 200915 yr there is also a "6x6" vocal . i also have a photo of larry hammond , when i find it i will post it here. dave did the tracks about 10 years ago if my memory is correct Larry Hammond Sad Sad Day (Sidras Theme), Larry Hammond - Whenever I'm Without You (backing to Happiness Is Here), the alt of Elijah Rocking With Soul. What are/is the other one Dave? Apart from 6x6. It was about ten years ago Dave, I remember Dave sent me an e-mail telling the full story but over the years it got lost somewhere. Maybe someone should get the full story from him once again.
