The sudden cut between Not Waving & Diet comes from the fact that you’d flip the cassette to its B-side at the end of Not Waving, causing it to be a very abrupt ending.
Love hearing these songs during their gestational period. I think this version of Not Waving might be my favorite. It basically predicted Radiohead’s sound lol
that they never put out the studio version of "rimp romp ramp" really speaks to their selectiveness, supposedly it's an early version of "paper hats" but i still can't hear it, sounds totally original. thanks for this
That was always speculation, I don’t know where people got that idea from. Maybe I missed an interview or something, but I honestly think it was just a fan suggesting as to why RRR never got an official published recording and it just spread like that. Regardless, I agree. Especially when their first record is filled with soundscapes and ambient pieces, it makes you wonder why they skipped out on RRR. Maybe in their heads it was just a better live piece then in the studio.
I mean, there is a studio recording of it; the one on Made Available, which was recorded, mixed and edited in John Peel’s studio. The production on that is great. But as for why it never appeared on an album, I have no idea. It’s one of their best songs. Maybe they felt like they couldn’t top the rendition from the Peel sessions. Also I can fully believe it evolved into Paper Hats in some way. There are similarities between their structures and bass lines, although if Paper Hats did emerge from it those elements definitely mutated

Really wish we got a good recording of The Rough with the Smooth
It’s such a wonderful little song. It has the immense aura of sadness to it

@@LongSinceDead1 love both songs though.
Had no idea this existed
this is the first post-punk recording 😮
Pere Ubu - 30 Seconds Over Tokyo (1975)
Brian Eno - Third Uncle (1974)
Red Krayola - Dairymaids Lament (1968)
How did you find this?
