Solid Rock Demo - Original Extended Version (October 1979)

[onceupon84]

Here is the original non edited demo version of Solid Rock!

"One, Two" on intro before "One, Two, Three, Four" and later fade out at the end, with more choruses

From Mimmo:

No, the full version on the acetate is 3'30" circa, there is a long outro with a guitar solo at the end, after the chorus.

So, we have 3 versions of the demo (full version and two edited versions):

#1 2:40 from Ridding High OST
#2 2:58 version with "One, Two" at the beginning, more guitar before Mark stars singing and longer chorus fade out ending.
#3 3:36 full version with guitar solo at the end.


#1 and #2 are mono sound, #3 STEREO (thanks dr)

From Mimmo:

"Just checked.  I have played one of the two acetates. I hate to play acetates, you have to handle them very very carefully......
Solid Rock is 3'36" .
The acetate is STEREO"

It is not mine, but obviously the video it's a home edition.
But we have the longer audio!

I have two questions 

* What is the "acetate" ?
* Where can we listen to this full version of SR ?

Thaaaank Yououou....

I tweaked a little the sound to get pseudo-stereo sensation
