Re: Tom Jones Us
Wow! I love it! I never heard this one before. I do have a comment on it: It has a "Lost Horizon" feel to it, almost like it could have been a song in that movie. And it was written, I assume (by the date), around that time, too, so it makes sense.KeithBurke wrote:Joe, Kyle, Bill and Vincent...

The very first rendition of `Us` I remember hearing was by Burt who sang the song on the Dinah Shore Show in 1977. It was during the conversation with Dinah Shore that the then new album `Futures` was discussed. I can recall that Dinah told Burt that Bobby Shew played the trumpet solo during the song and Burt acknowledged the trumpet player with a ` bravo Bobby`. Although Bobby Shew did not feature on the ~Futures~ album he did turn up on Burt`s follow up album `Woman`.

Gabba-
I checked with the sound engineer who transcribed the track from vinyl and he writes that what you are probably hearing is as follows: "there is a lot of analogue ambience left in there. They master recordings now so loud now you can't hear the ambience that recordings used to have, it used to be called analogue warmth... It's why when digital recording first became available in the late 70's many artists wouldn't go near it and many still don't..It's very brittle sounding. Analogue warmth can easily be heard as "distortion", especially to younger listeners who grew up on digital recordings".

Not worried in the least, Gabba. I was only curious as to what 'distortion' you were hearing that I wasn't. Being an old fart and having grown up on vinyl the analogue warmth he spoke of sounded perfectly normal to me and I wanted his input as to what it was you were hearing as 'distortion' that I wasn't. His explanation made total sense to me and I wanted to share that information with you.
