Ik I'm a bit late to this but on the Le Baron Boys Demos there seems to be Seventh Sign on some CDs of it. Is it a demo version of it or the 1991 release of it? If it's a demo I'd love to hear it if anyone has it if they can upload it somewhere. I've got the live performances of it from 1989 and 1990 including the Taiwan shows but I feel like there's a demo somewhere. I did however find a snippet of a demo of Halfway To Heaven by Joey and Jim Vallance if you're interested. Channel is Ivica Valter at: www.youtube.com/@ivica

I've just found the demos for Sweet Love Child and Little Bit of Lovin'. There's one more that's bugging me. I've seen Mr Government Man mentioned and I wonder if a demo of that exists or is it the released version from the compilation albums that's featured on there? The Sweet Love Child and Little Bit of Lovin' demos are in this folder on MEGA mega.nz/file/Jup3FSwb#zp6svBy04tLz_yIlyHau1AOJBJ1REyIJ_V1MYrbHPJM

The released version has some extra percussion overdubs added in the intro and chorus. I think the original version (without the overdubs) is from the Prisoners in Paradise recording sessions, and is not a demo per se. That's just my guess, though. Here is the original version:

I used to have the LBB demos with the previous versions of PIP songs, but they where like downtuned and kind of dirty in terms of sound. Did you clean those demos? Because I hear them cleaner and in another pitch and even tempo.

Hello, Stein. I used to have the LBB demos with the previous versions of PIP songs, but they where like downtuned and kind of dirty in terms of sound. Did you clean those demos? Because I hear them cleaner and in another pitch and even tempo. I sure did! ![;D](//storage.proboards.com/3415076/images/KC0rkbLhaAnZxwxjcLDI.gif) I found a collection of the demos in the correct pitch many years ago (probably on a fan site) and then I used "noise reduction" in GoldWave to clean them up. ![:yes:](//storage.proboards.com/3415076/images/qCTZ0tutIJ0TSjYxdzQu.gif) Speaking of pitch and tempo changes, this tends to happen with tapes, whether it's copies of concert recordings or demo tapes. For example, listen to this concert recording from 1984: That's really slow! ![:whoa:](//storage.proboards.com/3415076/images/NXxpZivNPxXNsBPjWljo.gif) So I opened that recording in GoldWave and selected Pitch, then played around with the sliders until I had found the proper pitch. ![:thumbs-up:](//storage.proboards.com/3415076/images/qdVcpzmLl0BufmMhBlUl.gif) And here is the result!
