..Wanting 2 paint the town..

but Feeling like Taking The Threads Off..

Day 189: This has won out for my 365 today...I like my pose better here than in #1. I'd write more, but I've been doing laundry for almost three hours and I'm still not done...I hate, hate, hate repetitive tasks...they irritate me :P

Ospedali, galere e puttane: sono queste le università della vita. Io ho preso parecchie lauree. Chiamatemi dottore.

If you once followed me on Flickr, this image might ring a bell for you...or not. It's part of a small series of paintings revisiting the very first photographs I took when I arrived in France, 3 and a half years ago.

 

Very soon I'll be leaving Europe to return to my country. I posted a sort of "good bye" letter on my blog, reflecting on all the good things that happened to me (personally and professionally) while living here. Along with that I posted the complete painting series. Check it out.

This is for the Half Nekkid Thursdays group and it's my first ever "skin" photo. AAHHH!!! What am I thinking? You don't post a picture of your stomach when you just had a baby.... well a year ago is JUST when it's your second kid and you're in your 30's! But hey, what the hell.... It's Thursday (and all the other kids are doing it Mom).

 

Anyway, I have been working out (New Year's Resolution) so I have gained some confidence and lost some weight. However, this is about as "Half Nekkid" as I'm gonna get!!

Day 189 Alternate: This was a close tie with #2, but I like my pose in the other one a bit better I think.

REVIEW of DISC ONE:

01 There's A Place (take 1) - about 12 seconds new at the beginning, including chat and take announcement. A drop in volume and a click as it comes back in can be heard around 20 sec. This doesn't have the tape error in the right channel around 1:03 that S2S has. The end cuts off a bit earlier than S2S.

02 There's A Place (take 10) - nothing new at the beginning. End is a bit longer, but was copied from a later overdub take, as it cuts off right before the harmonica would come back in, so nothing new here.

03 I Saw Her Standing There (take 1) - more intro (more than S2S, more than “Abbey Road Video Show”, more than the monitor mix) about 3 sec. that we didn't previously have from an inline source.

04 Misery (takes 8-9) - take 8 is nothing new, but take 9 is all new. Cuts to the common version for the last 26.5 seconds.

05 Hold Me Tight (take 20-21) - first .3 sec. are new, the click in before the take announcement at about 36 sec. is new, and had been cut out on Tobe Milo’s studio sessions. End cuts sooner than on previous releases.

06 Can't Buy Me Love (takes 2-3 and 4 count-in) - first 18s of take 2 are new, take 3 nothing new, unless you count the bit before the take 4 announcement as take 3. The take 4 announcement and count-in are new. All the music for take 4 is all from the Stereo remasters.

07 She's A Woman (takes 3-6) - take 3 intro is nothing new. Take 6 is miscalled as 5. Take 6 is longer both before and after than the sources we had for this previously; the CD EP boxset had the count-in and Audifon's “Anthology” contained this tape with a fade-out. Now we have a bit more from the end of the previous take, the chat, the take announcement and an unfaded ending.

08 I Feel Fine (takes 1-2) - there is 16 seconds at the beginning that we didn't have before. Nothing new at the end. Some legitimate studio noises near the end have been removed through de-clicking and now there's a little dropout in their place.

09 Yes It Is (takes 1, 14) - has about 3.5 sec. new at beginning. There's something new that lasts about .1 sec. between the two takes here. Take 14 has something in poor quality tacked onto the end of it with loads of noise reduction. Not sure what this is or if it's in the right place, but it's definitely from a different source.

10 Help (takes 1-4) about .6 second of new stuff at the beginning. Nothing new at the end.

11 That Means A Lot - Barrett tape, a lot of NR, nothing new. The bit at the end is from the next track on Barrett's tape; Norwegian wood (take 1).

12 SFF (take 7) - More of the whistle at the beginning. The end is longer.

13 SFF (RM3) - Barrett tape, nothing new, heavy NR.

14 SFF (take 25) - New mix, or a good fake of one! Take call is pasted on from a different source. Has some intro stuff only heard in the monitor mix now from an inline source. Some guitar bleeps not heard before at 2:47 and 2:55, ending is longer and a different mix from take 25 that we already had. Organ at the end can be heard in the monitor mix. There’s a weird hollow sound starting in the middle when it differs from take 25 that we already have.

15 SFF (take 26) New material at beginning only. John's vocals are a bit louder now, but those are easily isolatable and boostable in the take 26 that we already have.

16 When I'm 64 - Full count in - rest maybe from the MOGG files

17 While My Guitar Gently Weeps - sounds better

18 Hey Jude - various pieces here and there that we didn't have before that now join take 7, Las Vegas tune and St. Louis Blues together. An edit, overlapping the end of Las Vegas Tune with the next Hey Jude take is evident, but nothing stands out as fake. Sound quality is better than previous copies and has more channel separation, although still too heavily noise reduced.

19 Not Guilty - count-in is pasted on from Peter Seller's tape, and not quite in the right spot, as the guitar starts twice. Dropouts are in the same place as Scott’s tape, so it’s not Barrett’s copy, but has the longer ending that the Barrett tape has. Probably genuine except for the count-in.
