Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
To my knowledge this mix has never been in circulation before. Pristine sound and a different take to all the versions on the GEER demos...
Also a big upgrade on All the Young Punks from the same sessions...

Thanks to Kenny, Marky, Matedog and Doc for their help in getting this out there.

Great stuff Heston, thanks! Are you able to share how we might be able to download our own copy of these?

Re: Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
I think so. Basically the album versions with guide vocals and before they got all the guitar overdubs. They were on a tape handed out by Joe at a car boot sale in Marin in early 1979.

Re: Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
Excellent work by all concerned. Great to hear in such quality.
Re: Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
Fantastic start to my day! Thanks Hestion, a wonderful surprise that new discoveries are still turning up. Those GEER sessions demos have been crying out for upgrades for years, and yes, Stay Free in this form is all-new to me.
Hopefully ithey don't get zapped off Youtube, so a download link at some stage would be the icing on the (Christmas) cake.

Re: Unreleased working mix of Stay Free
Cheers John. When I stumbled across these on a random website I assumed they would be the usual GEER demo takes but they are obviously a massive upgrade. And yeah, I've referenced Stay Free against all the other versions and it is definitely a unique mix. It has the vocal we see Mick laying down on Rude Boy but with guitars that aren't present on that version. It was when I heard Mick's guitar solo at the end that I realised it was a mix I'd never heard before.JohnS wrote: ↑24 Dec 2020, 6:06amFantastic start to my day!
