Title: CITFM 1966 Mix/Im In Great Shape (Main Post, Didnt mean to post FOUR times...) Post by: DingDangIsTheGreatestSong on February 25, 2021, 05:11:54 AM I dont know if this has been addressed yet but on the Child is the Father of the Man Original 1966 mix from the Wake the World boxset, is that the Great Shape acetate that has only been rumored about at the end? As in the more energetic one mentioned but never released. It sounds very very similar to Great Shape, Id love to know your thoughts!

Well do you think that is the one mentioned in interviews and what not? Mark Linett said that it's a version of I'm In Great Shape from the Durrie Parks acetates.

Post by: WillJC on February 27, 2021, 04:42:17 AM It's a short loop from a Heroes and Villains edit on one of the acetates, yes. Mark recorded a few seconds on his phone and snuck it on the end.

Nothing has ever been as magical as uncovering another fragment. Months and years would go by between them. I used to dream about Smile boots, literally. Forgive me my moaning Gen X moment, but the immediacy of the internet robs us of these experiences. |
