    Fred Frith SHM CD Japanese Papersleeve Rditions

    image.jpg

    Just received this Disk Union promo box of Fred Frith SHM CD's of Gravity, Speechless and Cheap at Half the Price. The interesting thing about these packages is that they include a good number of bonus tracks, unlike the Fred Records issues which didn't have any. According to the credits, these bonus tracks were remastered by Bob Drake this year. I wonder if the remastering was just for this issue or for something else?

    are they the same bonus tracks that appeared on the original versions of these tunes, as released by ESD?

    example:

    Gravity:

    14 –Henry Cow Waking Against Sleep
    15 –Henry Cow Terrain
    16 –Henry Cow Moeris Dancing
    17 –Aqsak Maboul Geistige Nacht
    18 –Skeleton Crew Life At The Top
    19 –Fred Frith Oh Wie Schön Ist Panama!

    ??

    or other ones

    ??

    thanks

    Looks like the live tracks are all from the Keep the Dog album.

    Just got the paper sleeve version of Gravity and noticed that the music runs maybe 2% slower than the old ESD version. Any idea why this is and how it compares to the original vinyl?

    So were those bonus tracks ever issued elsewhere once the Fred Records releases appeared or have they remained unavailable since the ESD editions went away?
