Thanks Again! (and Again!, and Again!, etc...) Nick!
This LP sounds a little more *energetic* than the later 'Scene' CD you posted earlier: perhaps due to the more prevalent overdubbing heard on this one!
And once again, your vinyl transfer sounds just as clean & clear as a digital CD rip--don't know how you do it, but just glad you do! :-)

Many thanks for this. I am wondering if someone can help me out with the tracklisting, since on the LP there are seven tracks listed and here there are nine; also here there are three titles "Let's Sing, Let's Dance", two of about four minutes, whereas on the LP there is only one about six minutes long. Also, the first track "Something Coming", is nine minutes here whereas on the LP it is about five minutes.

None of the tracks seem to be duplicated as they all have different lengths. Any help is appreciated!

George Lane said...

Never mind I got it sorted: the six minute Let's Sing is a duplicate of Pray and the four minute a duplicate of Ballad For Lonliness - the 4:50 Let's Sing is the correct one.

Many thanks again it is wonderful to have another solo Togashi record. In the words of Steve Lacy "the one and only... number one, number one!"

George Lane said...

All right... turns out the third "Let's Sing" is a duplicate of "Heartstrings"... so perhaps the actual "Let's Sing" is missing from the rip?

Thank you sotise & Nick for the music. Thank you George for the track list help. If you delete all 3 of the 'Let's Sing, Let's Dance', then rename 02-Pray to 03-Let's Sing, Let's Dance --- you are done. 01-Something Coming is actually tracks 1 and 2 combined. The album total is 32 minutes and change, just like on discogs.
