For me, this will always be the best song ever, & I have always loved this rougher edged version.
I just love Picks high hat drumming throughout.
Thanks for sharing. :)

This link should work now:

http://rapidshare.com/files/310087772/SoS_single_version.flac

Thank you.

Beware this seem to be a turntable plugged directly in the soundcard.
So it was not corrected with the RIAA levels.

I did the job  ;D
 
Accurate volume amplification of 4.6 db was also applied  - no bit were harmed or hurt during the process.

It is here ---> SoS single version

Sound is surprisly good for a 7" source.

Folks, the link doesn't work anymore. Could you please guide me to find a new source?
Thanks in advance
Love over gold, mind over matter

I usually try to avoid songs like SOS just to not wear them out, but when I do I always come to the conclusion that it's the coolest song ever written.

It's a great version, maybe even better than the album version. Gotta love the percussion thingy during the outro.

Totally agreed.  It was the first song I heard from DS that made me instantly fell in love with the band. Yes, it's the coolest song ever !!!

I didn't put it onto my HD at the time I put Sultans on.  Should have, shouldn't I?  Now I have a different computer with no interface for outputs so I'm not sure if I can do it any more.  I'll see if I transferred it to a CD and get back to you.

I've got Badges, Posters, etc  if you want on my HD?

I checked my shelves and found the CD "Rare Sessions III" where track 1 is Eastbound Train, but obviously a live version from "Chorus TV" 1978...
The single b-side was another, cooler version that I used to have on tape somewhere... It is that special version that I am up to...
