DEADLINES, WITCHWOOD MEDIA EDITION, 2012
Released - 29 Oct 2012
During the compilation of A Taste Of Strawbs, we unearthed many tapes recorded during the making of Deadlines. There were acoustic demos of many of the Deadlines songs by Dave, often with Chas in support (two made it onto Taste - "Deadly Nightshade" and Time And Life"). There are six on here. There's also a full band demo of "Sealed With A Traitor's Kiss". There's also the outtake "Midnight" (also on Taste), and to round off the package, three production mixes from the first recorded version of Deadlines from the Dublin sessions.
For a piece by Dave Cousins on the making of Deadlines, and a preview by Dick Greener, check out the reviews page.
