Peter Gabriel – Scraping the Bottom (1979-2010)

PETER GABRIEL
SCRAPING THE BOTTOM (NEW EDITION)

AUDIO SOURCE : PCM 44.100 (16 bit)
FORMAT : FLAC LEVEL 6

DETAILS

After “Gold Collection” & “I/O from Secret World” with this one called “Scraping the Bottom” I wanted to close the series of compilations made in order to collect songs that doesn’t appear in the original PG compilations as b-sides and on original soundtracks.
I had to delete the O.S.T. tracks that were included in the original “Scraping the Bottom ” torrent, but I’ve replaced them with other rarities and mayby the compilation it’s better now…
Interesting tracks are : “Marguerita” from the album “3” sessions with Phil Collins on drums; “Bully for You”(published as a single in March 1980 in England by Tom Robinson co-author of the track with PG) and “Seven Zero”;”Wild” and last but not least “Make Tomorrow Today” an anticipation of the announced, but never published “Son of Ovo”.
Also nice are the alternate versions of “Sky Blue” and “More that This” very different from the original ones.
I’ve included also some primitive versions of songs from “Ovo” and “Up”, completely different like “The Tower That Ate the People”.

Quality:

Comments:
Sound quality is remarkably good on tracks 1-12, especially for recordings of that era.
Tracks 1-5 also appear on official releases of the John Peel sessions. The first two
Interstellar Overdrive tracks are short studio takes of the intro; the third is an extended
16:46 version; the fourth is a short 2:40 version. Rat Race, at over 11 minutes, is an
excellent track. The sound quality on tracks 13-20 is not quite as good as the rest of the
CD. This CD is highly recommended for any Syd freak or Floydologist. A must have! -ECM

If you are a Syd-o-phile, then yes, you’ll want to buy it. Otherwise, it would probably be
best to leave it sit on the shelf (or in the bin).

This CD more or less has 3 distinct portions. 1) The Peel Sessions – these are the exact
same takes that have appeared on the RoLO of the same name. On LL & OR the quality is
remarkable for these tracks. It would seem that the legal product was used as the master.

Portion 2) Tonight Let’s All Make Love In London Soundtrack – Although named Rat
Race, the first track of this portion is really Nick’s Boogie. Following this track are 4
different versions of Interstellar Overdrive. The first two appear on the official TLAMLIL
soundtrack CD named “Interstellar Overdrive (reprise 1 & 2)” The 3rd IO is the extended
version that appears on the TLAMLIL soundtrack CD for the first time (the 16 minute
version). The 4th IO is the version of the song that appeared on the original vinyl version
of the TLAMLIL that was released following the movie. It’s about 3 minutes in length. The
quality of these recordings varies somewhat. There is more tape hiss than I’d expect if
they’d used the official CD as a master for these tracks. However, I don’t hear any pops
or crackles to indicate a vinyl source. The short version of IO (3 minute version) is slightly
worse quality than the other 3, but they’re pretty close.

Portion 3) Outtakes – The quality here varies immensely. The versions of Lucy Leave and
King Bee that appear here sound exactly like the versions on A Saucerful Of Outtakes.
I’d go so far as to say that one of the two copied the other. There are several songs that
appear here (ie: Word Song and Birdie Hop, possibly others) which have surfaced on
Opel, but stupidly the copies presented on this disk weren’t lifted from Opel. Instead, they
chose some vinyl source. Also, a few of the songs (Dominoes and Milky Way especially)
seem to be presented at the wrong speed! Anyone with facilities to produce a CD should
have equipment enough to present their recordings at the proper speed. There’s a
wonderful version of Long Gone on this disk, but, stupidly, it is faded out before the
end of the tune! I believe that the whole version appears on the vinyl RoIO “Vegetable
Man”. It really upset me to learn that it was mutilated for this CD. Swan Lee (or Untitled
Instrumental #1 from Vegetable Man) is presented here in its entirety (unlike on A Saucerful
of Outtakes, where they faded it out about half way through..) Damn good song.

If you are able to buy this disk (serial number DIYE 16) and Syd Barrett’s Last Screams
(DIYE 15), you’ll be happy to notice there there is no repeated material. If you buy these
as well as Syd’s official albums, you’ll have a pretty good overview of his career. -SCOTT

Recently, a copy of the RoIO Lucy Leave & Other Rarities was found containing music
thought to be from the Glen Miller Orchestra, rather that the expected Syd Barrett.
Otherwise, it was intact (with correct liner notes & picture of Syd on the disk.) -SCOTT

Notes: From a “millionth generation” cassette bought in Argentina some 17 years ago by our friend Alejandro. For some reason this recording has not been heavily circulated, and is shrouded in mystery. We have no legitimate doubts as to the authenticity of this recording. It appears to be from a working set of demo tapes that were used as the actual blueprint for The Final Cut -the last album that Pink Floyd would release with Roger Waters in the lineup. In some places the difference between this and the actual release are subtle, and in other places, the differences are quite stark, changing the overall tone of some of the meanings inferred from the actual release. We won’t be listing all of the differences here, so you can enjoy your own personal exploration of this work in progress.

Free Range Pigs is releasing this volume for it’s historical significance. While the sound quality is not “disappointing”, the recording does “show it’s age” in some places. We’re not exactly sure, but it sounds as though this was recorded in a professional studio, so it is very likely that somewhere in this big world, a sonically superior copy exists.

Comments:

From Pigland East – This tape is complete and with only one minor
cut–a very brief tape flip at 44:03 into the second set, which
indicates the taper was using a 90 minute cassette. As usual, FRP strives
to bring you the best possible sound without destroying the archival value
of the source tape by attempting a heavy remastering job.

The audience claps after the 3rd verse during ‘Pigs (3DO)’ and Roger did
not squeal a number. The audience is generally very quiet and respectful,
which is a refreshing change from the standard audience recording of this
tour. Not a single firework to be heard! David performs an incredible jam
during ‘SOYCD (Pts. 6-9)’. This is truly a recording of a band playing at
its peak.

From Pigland West – I’m listening to the show again. What strikes
me the most is the amazing clarity of the recording and the polite and
obviously captivated audience. They are like a Japanese audience–quiet
when they should be and clapping/cheering where appropriate. Hard to believe
they are French (just kidding Pigland Europe!). The performance, I think,
is rather uninspired but certainly an excellent and competent one. A bit
mechanical, maybe. Does David mess up the words in one of the songs?

Other Comments: So what do YOU think, dear listener? If you get a copy of this
release, please feel free to post a short review to the PF fan group of your
choice.
