THE TONY WILLIAMS LIFETIME
Turn It Over (Bill Laswell Remix) [no label, 1CD]
Unreleased tracks.
Thanks to tiburon for sharing the tracks on the internet.
tiburon noted:
In 1999, Bill Laswell decided to re-imagine this seminal jazz
fusion album. However, Verve Records refused to release the album once
it was completed, claiming it would never sell. However, it was released
on CD-R directly to a small music shop in New York City frequented by
Bill Laswell himself, the Downtown Music Gallery.
A rare, unreleased version of The Tony Williams
Lifetime album, Turn It Over. Expanded, remixed, and remastered by Bill
Laswell from the original Polydor master tapes. This unabridged version
of the complete album includes four unreleased cuts, and five longer
unedited versions from album sessions - which was intended as a double
LP but only released as an editied single LP. Cover art by Russell
Mills, liner notes by John Szwed. Thanks to Bill Laswell for rescuing,
and finally giving a proper mastering to match William’s original
intentions, to this most seminal, groundbreaking recording, mixing jazz,
rock, prog and metal years ahead of virtually everyone else!
I always said the only thing wrong with this album was it's length, it's too short!

ReplyDeleteCan Spectrum Road be reuplaoded?
DeleteThis looks interesting, depending on how light a hand Laswell used in the remix. Thanks for another great listen.
ReplyDeleteThe extra length in some of the tracks and the unreleased tracks are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteReload please?

DeleteMany Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteAre there four "previously unreleased" tracks in this release or three? Thanks
ReplyDeleteGreat share - thanks very much!
ReplyDeleteUgh he remixed Emergency I know he has it.. The 1991 remix of it is the worst piece of trash they ruined it... I know Laswell probably made it sound awesome in comparison ... How do we get a hold of Laswell and these files.
