My '74 outtakes album

[shangaijoeBB]

Hey guys! Happy New Year! Here's a new  mix I cooked up during the holidays, a fake 1974 LP featuring outtakes from 1970-1972 and featuring the Ricky/Blondie band lineup (now with more Don Goldberg!). It features my own remixes of the Dennis tracks "Carry Me Home" and "Iv'e Got  a Friend".
Think of it as a kind of "Carl & The Passions - So Tough Pt 2"

Enjoy!

This is great, thank you. Perfect sleeve art too!

"Awake" is a Floyd Tucker composition, to my recollection.

[Bill M]

Well done, sir!

Great list, except I’d open side 2 with Awake and finish with Barbara.

That's a nice way to start side B (Awake), I like it! And Barbara is such a powerful song that it also works as a closer!

My thought process was starting side-B with something similar to how "Hold On, Dear Brother" kicks off side-B of "Carl & The Passions - So Tough", with a Ricky/Blondie number.
Closing with "Awake" on my side-B, I wanted a similar feeling to The Beatles' closing song of the White Album, "Good Night". A sort of a lullaby-esque epilogue/farewell to the whole album.

Barbara was hard to figure out. I simply didn't want it next to another Dennis song, but I wanted it to be on the second "slower/ballads" side.

A great ensemble of songs! A crying shame that it's almost 50 years later and hardly any of this material has seen official release.
