REVIEW:

This umpteenth version of the Undercover sessions could seem at first look another release of the same stuff  already released by many labels but it is in fact a copy of the Undercover Sessions 8 volumes we already reviewed in here that had only appeared online, where the speed of the various tracks that have surfaced so far has been corrected; a tiny difference here being that some tracks have been split in 2 parts (Gotta Know You #1) with regards to previous releases, with tracks that are presented in a somehow chronological order concerning the sessions they come from. It is still a mystery why High School Girl and She Was Hot #1 are in stereo while all other tracks coming from mid Oct.82 session are in mono; another puzzle is why are reverted Can’t Find Love #1 & #3. On Disc Four we find all 3 versions of Keep It Cool, the so called first one long version that appeared on The Virchov Tape (DAC 181) starting with 2 count in and cut at the end, followed by version no.2 which is shorter from Can’t Find Love (DAC 159) that begins with a fade in bit has proper ending; then the version found on the Art Collins Tapes (there called no.1) which has real start and end that is 7 seconds shorter than the previous one. Track 9 is the full brass version of Pretty Beat Up. On Disc Five Show Me A Woman 1 & 2 are the rough embryonic versions of Tie You Up while Something I Want is also known as Your Love. Still In Love 3 is also known as Dance Mr. K. Some more 82 session tracks on Disc Six which however ends with 3 songs from the early 83 sessions. Disc Seven has songs from the spring-summer 83 sessions where tracks like Undercover got their final dress, unfortunately it was messed up on the original uploads with the unnecessary distinction between version 4a and 4b that confused everything after; Disc Eight offers many variations of Too Much Blood, which however were all on 2 discs on Undercover Outtakes Vol. Eight, here some are missing, it seems they just copied the second disc not realizing the first disc has different tracks (only in this volume of the whole set!), it would have been sufficient to look at the back cover, or to possess some intuition, after all you don’t start numbering from i, do you? Some skills are required in copying too, unfortunately this label proved once more its careless attitude.
