::) ::)

And, despite how happy I am about having all these differences betwen the original release and this new one, I can't stop thinking that something happened that forced them to do this in this way... it's nou usual do a re-release and change things, it´s like, for example, they couldn't use the same Portobello than in 1988 because they lost the Paris 83 tapes or got damaged, like when mixing the TR someone failed to noticed it had to be a live version and also failed to check the end of the song and left that end without edit...

Who knows what happened but, anyway, I'm happy this re-release has something new.

Also I always thouth that the single version of Sultans was better than the record one. In fact, the demo was even better than those two for me!

The version I hear on Apple Music is definitely not a studio one. Sounds like a remaster of the same  live version that was originally released but with an almost complete ending as opposed to an early fade out. I think some vocals sound a little different too so could be a different version or just fragments comped from a different show.

Judging from the preview snippet on Apple Music it’s the studio version, also the length is the same.

didn't have the time to listen it yet

but WTF surprises ?!!

Yes, new ending to TR studio version... I don't know if you like it... no fade out

I got the LP, but not opened it yet

about TR could it be the acetate that Mimmo was talking about ?

When I listened to that end, that's the first thought it came to mind!

It might be the same, but don't know for sure, never heard that acetate version myself.

That could mean this is the original TR ending then...

Yes it is.

Probably most songs that end with a fade out have an ending like that, that's the reason why they do a fade out.

I think there is a Sultans version with a similar end, from the Guitar Hero videogame, with also an abrupt and curious end.

Yes, it's true... I need to compare the both TR versions for the outro

It's interesting to listen to, if it was released as a sort of "out take", but someone could go and find Telegraph Road on Spotify for the first time and this is what they would hear. Oh boy.

Can you imagine this happening with The Beatles or Queen?

They will think it's a very good live version  ;)

the strange thing is why release this stuff on a comp ?

why didn't they put bonus tracks on re-releases of the albums ?
the sultans single version should have been on the first album re-release, Portobello Belle on the alchemy re-release, etc...

I don't get their "strategy".... or should I say : their absence of strategy...

It is their strategy. MK always says they always go from one crisis to the next.

Yeah, where the original fades, this one continues for 16 more seconds.

Crap, listened again and it’s obvious now. They tricked me.   :-\

Hmm, so now i have checked that 2-LP-Set. First impression, really good pressings for such GZ-Media products.
TR sounds clear and powerful to me from my hi-fi system. Very intresting to hear some different guitarparts shortly when the fade-out starts. Hmm, that comes to my question to that version. How long would it last without that fading.?  To my impression, the fading-process is very fast in that song, but i´m of the opinion that there will be not many seconds left, but that is my opinion.  :think

Hmm, i´m not sure if that TR version came from an unknown acetate-record, but that different guitar-part at the end is remarkable in comparison with the other TR version. Who know´s more about such different track-versions on acetates in the vaults of Mark.?
Elvis Presley had a lot of such acetate-records for the first impression of the recorded work. I have heard, that he had recorded the famous song Hound Dog more that 30 times in the studio, and he had to choose on version for the single-release in 1956.
I personally own a So Far Away single-version as Sound-Clinic-acetate in 7-inch format. Can somebody imagine, that there are truely some different recorded versions of known DS songs in Marks archive in form of acetate-records ??

Is there a fade out in Telegraph Road on the LP version? On spotify there is no fade-out until the last couple of seconds (ending with a shipping bell sound or something?)
