Prophonics 2029 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) The Capitol is a strange in the distance mix of the backing track with upfront vocals on both sides while the Sidra issue or demo is a great mix. Just sold my silver styrene copy of Darrell Banks Our Love Is In The Pocket but still have the LP but I keep thinking the sound of it being on styrene adds to the record, makes it more exciting. Quiet a few minty demo's turned up a few years ago on the Bay. Edited December 12, 2008 by Prophonics 2029 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Quiet a few minty demo's turned up a few years ago on the Bay. I think the Capitol 'national' mix is different to the regional 'Sidra' mix. Listen carefully - it's not as 'full' and there are key elements missing....bits of vibe here and there and some sax tootlings and Barbara's vocal doesn't sound as 'defined'. The Sidra version is much 'meatier' and it was a joy to hear Barbara perform 'Call on Me' at Northants....one of those 'special' moments Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
John Benson Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 It's probably just me, but I always preferred "So real" to "Call on me" Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Seen lots more Sidra copies in my time than Capitol ones. So Real is absolute bliss of a tune. Kev Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
