Title: I've Got A Friend - soundboard? Post by: The Shift on February 03, 2010, 09:07:34 AM Spent the afternoon at my desk listening to clunky slipper live slippers of Dennis's I've Got a Friend. One of my fave Dennis songs. Anyone know if there's a soundboard recording, and whether one has ever circulated?
Must be a front runner for any further official Dennis releases if there's a studio or good live recording of this. The guy really was the creative gem in the band throughout the 70s.

Post by: Jon Stebbins on February 03, 2010, 09:16:29 AM As has been stated many times over the past few years...there is a basic studio track in existence of I've Got A Friend from around '71, no vocals or major production elements on it, just a basic track...piano, drums, bass, maybe a little guitar. The only live recordings to have surfaced are not soundboard quality.

Many thanks for the clarification Jon; I thought I remembered as much about a studio recording but didn't know whether it'd ever been recorded live or not. Such a shame....Title: Re: I've Got A Friend - soundboard? Post by: Andrew G.

And even in that raw form, it's a killer. ;D Title: Re: I've Got A Friend - soundboard?

I've Got A Friend is controlled by BRI...Hawkins was brought in to the Legacy project via Caribou...no synergy.Title: Re: I've Got A Friend - soundboard?

I seem to be the only other person who thinks this but he sounds an awful lot like the early Dennis.Title: Re: I've Got A Friend - soundboard?

Post by: runnersdialzero on February 05, 2010, 08:56:17 AM Someone Please Mayonnaise (SUBTLETY IS ALIVE AND WELL, FOLKS) me the backing track and any live recordings and I'll combine those suckas. I've done it with three Elliott Smith tracks with fairly successful results - it takes a bit of time and energy, but it's worth it.

AH BALLS. I guess I accidentally read it as circulating. |
