I'd appreciate some more help if possible.

I'm interested in some information on the New Sounds LP

Can anybody confirm if this track listing, and running order, is correct as per the original album

A1. Having You Around

A2. Don't Take Your Love From Me

A3. Here I Am

A4. I Don't Wanna Lose You

A5. Everybody Wants To Be Free

A6. How I Feel Inside

B1. Tell Me Your Name

B2. Goodbye Little Girl

B3. Two Of A Kind

B4. Just As I Am

B5. Sweet Memories

B6. Moving

Is the LP self-titled or called "Having You Around"?

Many thanks

Andy

Thanks Simon

Andy

Can you remember what happened to my copy either of you two??? Did I sell it / lend it when I was down that way. I'm sure I didn't do anything with it and someone was asking about it a few weeks ago and I remember having one. Hope you're both well.

just as a footnote to that andy, the p-vine re-issue had the side two running order incorrect, but they realised their mistake and on the innersleeve you can see they printed it again underneath before they distributed the lp...obviously not wanting to go to the expense of producing another inner!. would have liked this on turbo,...but never mind,...i'll just have to learn japanese

Sorry Steve

No idea ....don't even recall you having it

As far as I understood the P-Vine was taken directly from the Turbo LP and "cleaned" up a bit?

HAD BOTH COPIES AND IMO I THINK THE P-VINE COPY SOUNDS BETTER THATS JUST ME...MATTY

Have had copys on both labels P-VINE copy the track order is slightly different to the original press on TURBO....have kept a TURBO copy and the sound quality is great...

one of the true greats for album collectors.....

Does the Turbo L.P. version of 'Sweet Memories' have the right/left channel drop out about half way through too?

Hi Andy,

I've finally got around to checking the Turbo copy and yes, the left channel briefly drops out within 'Sweet Memories'.

Also, please note:

The Turbo copy is self-titled and not called, 'Having you Around'.

The label just states The New Sound...see picture below.

The track running order on the labels (as there is no order on the sleeve) is different to what is in the grooves...'Sweet Memories' actually plays as track #2 not #5, and the rest just bounce down by one, if you see what I mean?

As for the sound quality...top heavy on the bass yes, but, not as bad as some make it out to be...sounds fine if you simply adjust the bass down!

Thanks for the tip Dave, I've got the P vine copy but was disappointed in the sound quality as Japanese albums are normally excellent.

As I understand it some of the tracks were re-cut for the Turbo LP. I'm presuming they were recorded under the very same conditions as Robert Tanner's Megatone 45s. According to John Ridley's page on Tanner they were recorded in Dawson Smith's basement on a one-channel recorder with cardboard partitions.

Although when listening one wishes the quality was better but in a way I find that ultra-low budget recorded in a basement sound appealing ................. raw street level soul (or below it in this case).

I know absolutely zilch about sound engineering but I suppose it's very limited what one can do with a poor quality product. Sow's ear and silk purse come to mind.

Great album
