Any Day Now Redux

Available from Bandcamp. Release notes taken verbatim from the site: 1987.The Dots were strangely deflated after the completion of their last album ,"Island of Jewels",as it just didn't seem to deliver what was promised (although I'd argue that it sounds better as years march on). The result was an intense few month where all members created personal demos and at a long (and merry ) meeting the demos were heard and (gulp!) judged! Everybody wrote something musically for Any Day Now and the result was one of the band's strongest records. Helping the recordings was the set-up of rented studio equipment at Niels' barn in a remote part of Holland and a truly wonderful month of sunshine. Jason chose to sleep outside in a hammock and still probably carries the scars of a thousand mosquito bites. Hans myre did a fine job in the engineering department. Raymond's 2012 remaster of "Any day Now" is also set for physical release sometime in the future ,but as no date can yet be set, the decision was made to upload the album to Bandcamp. Track by track liner notes: Track 9: Possibly Graham's finest contribution to the Dots.A piece of such complexity played again and again until the perfect take was there..no edits or sequences involved.A pearl. Track 10: A side of The Dots' second <a href=http://www.discogs.com/Legendary-Pink-Dots-Under-Glass/release/778024>12" single</a> and a bonus cut on the <a href=http://www.discogs.com/Legendary-Pink-Dots-Any-Day-Now/release/4384344>Any day Now cd</a>. Track 11: First track on the "B" side of the <a href=http://www.discogs.com/Legendary-Pink-Dots-Under-Glass/release/778024>Under Glass 12"</a> and a bonus on <a href=http://www.discogs.com/Legendary-Pink-Dots-Any-Day-Now/release/4384344>ADN cd</a>. The original was a lo-fi delight from 1983 on the <a href=http://www.discogs.com/Legendary-Pink-Dots-Chemical-Playschool-3-4/release/2445855>Chemical Playschool 3/4 double cassette set</a>. Strangely the production dates this re-make more than that original, but Barry's guitar riff remains as fresh as next summer. Track 12: Another track which first appeared on <a href=http://www.discogs.com/Legendary-Pink-Dots-Chemical-Playschool-3-4/release/2445855>CP 3/4 double cassette</a> and a better remake, though still the original perhaps has the edge. Track 13: Originally an exclusive track included on the <a href=http://www.discogs.com/Legendary-Pink-Dots-Stone-Circles-A-Legendary-Pink-Dots-Anthology/release/581822>"Stone Circles" anthology</a> which is long out-of-print. Last song of the ADN recording sessions.
