josh83 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Just seen this looking through a couple of sites "Walter sings the hits", was hoping someone on here had some info about it whether this is a live recording, what the b sides are like and what the overall sound quality is like? If anyone could please help out would be appreciated thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

endlessslog Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 i could be wrong, but i'm thinking it was "start today" with walter singing...i didn't have the boot but remember seeing it listed in catalogs so i might be thinking of something different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadreckoning Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yes, from what i remember it should be Walter demo-ing start today (plus some live tracks and such). He wrote the material and was familiarizing himself and the band with it. He sounds like he's 12. That said, he wasn't as old you may think back then. You can also get a hold of the Civ demo of start today. The lyrics were recorded while Walter was in Europe with YOT. He came back, didn't dig them, coached Civ and had him re-record them. It's interesting to hear the differences. You can get some a hold of some GB rareties on the awesome blogged and quartered site. http://bloggedquartered.blogspot.com/2009/07/gorilla-biscuits-rarities-1987-1990.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh83 Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 Awesome thanks mate I'll check that, so to ask another question while on the topic has Start Today ever had a remastering or anything as such I have the first pressing on black and purple just interested to know if a better sounding copy is available now?

nico Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 The recent cd that comes in digipack version of Start Today is slightly remastered. The recent LP press isn't, it sounds exactly like the first press or any presses in between. The download code that comes with the recent repress however is the remastered edition.
