Description
THE STYLE COUNCIL - SURE IS SURE (ACETATE).
THIS IS A VERY RARE UNRELEASED ACETATE 12' OF THE STYLE COUNCILS 'SURE IS SURE' FROM 1989. IT WAS PART OF THE LAST STYLE COUNCIL ALBUM 'MODERNISM - A NEW DECADE' THAT WAS SHELVED BY POLYDOR DUE TO THE HUGE CHANGE IN MUSICAL DIRECTION THAT THE BAND HAD TAKEN. THE BAND SPLIT SOON AFTER IT'S SHELVING. THE ALBUM WAS EVENTUALLY RELEASED 10 YEARS LATER ON A COLLECTABLE DOUBLE ALBUM FORMAT AND CD.
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 'THE TOWN HOUSE' ACETATE OF THAT ALBUM. NEVER RELEASED. MAYBE ONE OF A HANDFUL THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN MADE PRIOR TO GOING TO POLYDOR FOR THE OK. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS EVEN THE VERSION THAT MADE IT TO THE RE RELEASED ALBUM IN 1998 AS IT SAYS THAT IT IS THE 'GO FORWARD MIX'.
THE OTHER SIDE IS AN EQUALLY GOOD TUNE THAT WAS DESTINED FOR THE MODERNISM ALBUM - LOVE OF THE WORLD. THIS IS CALLED THE 'FREE LOVE MIX'
DEEP HOUSE GROOVES FROM PAUL WELLER WITH THAT UNMISTAKABLE VOICE AND STYLE. A GREAT DOUBLE SIDER. AND FOR AN ACETATE...IT IS IN GREAT SHAPE. TOUCHED MAYBE A COUPLE OF TIMES...SO PLAYS INCREDIBLY WELL.
CAT NUMBER HERE IS TSCX 18A/B
ACETATE IS IN EX SHAPE. VERY SHINY AND BARELY PLAYED. A COUPLE OF SMALL MARKS FROM GENERAL MOVEMENT OVER THE YEARS. BUT NO CLICKS OR POPS OR JUMPS. COMES IN A GENERIC WHITE COVER WITH THE TITLES WRITTEN IN BIRO ON THE TOP RIGHT HAND CORNER.
LABELS HAVE SONG DESCRIPTIONS AND ODDLY THE STYLE COUNCIL SCRIBBLED OUT!!! MAYBE AN IRKED POLYDOR EXEC??
THIS CAME WITH A BUNCH OF ACETATES FROM THE LATE 80'S THAT HAD NOT BEEN PLAYED MUCH.
A RARE ONE OFF IN AMAZING SHAPE. I AM GETTING RID OF SOME RARE BITS OVER THE NEXT WEEK OR TWO SO PLEASE KEEP WATCHING. THIS WILL BE SENT REGISTERED MAIL ONLY. REFUNDS ACCEPTED IF NOT HAPPY ON RETURN OF THE ACETATE.
