Screaming Secrets
? “You Better Scream” / “Make That Move, Baby” You Better Scream was originally written and recorded by Julian Cope's old mate Pete Wylie and his band Wah! as their
debut single in 1979. This Teardrop's version was never released and recorded once, on a BBC-session for Richard Skinner, August 12, 1981.
? “... And the Fighting Takes Over” From the same session, a beautiful rendition of this song. later in the year released on the Wilder lp.
? "You Disappear From View" This version differs enormously from the one originally released as the last Teardrops' single in 1983. This recording, in session for the BBC's
Kid Jenson on July 8, 1982 is almost a Julian Cope solo performance, only accompanied by electric guitar and a splash of synthesizer.
? “The Loving Kind” Another Julian Cope solo performance, this time, of a John Cale song. Never released before, this track dates from a Richard Skinner session, May 6,
1981.
? “For Years” The third totally unreleased Teardrops' gem on this compilation so far, as recorded, again, for a Richard Skinner session January 20, 1981.
? “The Great Dominion” From the same session an early, more experimental version of this song, who was originally intended as the title track of the second Teardrops'
album.
? “S.P.Q.R.” A storming live version of a good song, recorded live in Tokyo on July 27, 1985. By far better than the official released studio version, hidden away as a b side
to 5 O'clock World in 1989.
? “Suffocate” A classic, this song was only released as a b-side to You Disappear From View in 1983. This here version was recorded live on a BBC concert in May, 1981.
? “Screaming Secrets” From the same concert, comes this track, the Teardrops' version of a song, who was recorded by Julian Cope five(!) years later for this third solo LP,
Saint Julian.
? The following six songs are studio outtakes and alternate versions recorded in 1982, mainly for the third Teardrops' album, which was intended to be a double set, but in the
end it was not released at all. That is, until 1990, eight years after completion, when a single album, Everybody Wants To Shag ... was released.
? “The Butcher's Tale” But this instrumental piece, recorded with strings, was not on it.
? “Suffocate”. You've heard this song before, performed live, but this time the track, complete with string arrangements, sounds totally different, almost like a piece of
chamber music from a long time ago. {editors note - I think this version was released on the 12" version of You Disappear From view}
? “Tiny Children” This song was released on the second Teardrops' lp Wilder, but, again,, in a very different from. Here it is recorded with acoustic guitar, organ and
strings.
? “Blaze Star” A short piece of mood music, never used.
? “Log Cabin” Another beautiful song who never made it onto vinyl. The question remains, Why not?
? “Flipped Out on LSD” This short excerpt from a long experimental piece says it all. Rumour has it that this was planned as a single under the pseudonym Place de la
Concorde in 1982.
? “My Indifference” This song, again unavailable elsewhere, was recorded for a Kid Jenson BBC session, July 8, 1982
? For the last two tracks on this album, we have dugged deep in the archives for some very vintage Teardrops' material.
? “Ha! Ha! I'm Drowning” This completely different version of the Kilimanjaro track comes form the first Teardrops' BBC session for John Peel, October 2, 1979.
? "I Could Strangle Pete Wylie" This otherwise unknown instrumental was recorded live in Liverpool, September 17, 1979.
