Heroes and Villains middle 8 Cabinessence

[mike s]

Hello folks.

Working on a new fan edit of H&V and trying Iron Horse as the middle 8.

I've tried to arrange it so the section could still be used in Cab but also in H&V.

I haven't done much to it really apart from duck out the 2 sections of vocals.

See what you think.  Total fan edit but if anyone thinks its any good let me know.

cheers

Hey Mike, I listened to it, but all I get is some type of edit of Who Ran The Iron Horse.  There's no H&V surrounding it, neither at the front or back.

Hi Dan yeah thats all it is.  What did you make of it..?  I just tried to diffentiate it so it could be in both songs.

In my H&V mix its going after the second Bicycle Rider chorus and before 'boys and girls/my children.'  I can upload a very rough mix of the whole thing tomorrow.

If I could I'd replace the 'bicycle rider' lyrics with the single chorus lyrics - but with the backing track and backing vox from BR.

Well, I love the fact that I can hear the tubular bells in there!  It's been so long since I've listened to all my SMiLE sessions that I can't recall if I ever even noticed them before.  Especially that ascending line that's played.  Another little hidden gem in SMiLE!

Can't say I would ever think of using it in H&V, but don't let that stop you!
