FAS #162 'Addendums'

Free Appreciation Society

Issue #162

Audio and video addendums


Page 48

A&M 'live' radio promotional single (AM-1266 / May 1971)
I'll Be Creepin' (Stereo) / I'll Be Creepin' (Mono)
 
A&M 'live' retail/shop release version (AM-1266 / May 1971) 
I'll Be Creepin' / Mr Big

Retail version (above and the audio featured here) was likely withdrawn when the tour was cancelled after the group split up in Australia (just prior to the American shows). Hence, it's pretty scare. The stereo/mono promo isn't too hard to find for sale. Mixes here are unavailable elsewhere and were done by Chris Blackwell and Brian Humphries, not Andy Johns.

Hallmark 'Top Of The Pops' compilation (1971) features 'no original artist' versions of all the hits of the day!! Possibly some of the worst cover versions ever recorded. 'My Brother Jake' below. Hit play at your own risk!! Please return the LP to aunties radiogram when you have finished or she'll know you've been messing with her stuff.

Wilson Pickett goes above and beyond with his version of 'Fire And Water', Below are the LP version (the single edit fades slightly earlier), a concert performance from his 'Live In Japan' 2LP set, and a live TV appearance from 'Soul Train' on March 25, 1972. Groovy!
