2010, Beggars Banquet
. . . And Remains is made up from alternative mixes / takes and live recordings that were superfluous to the two Omnibus Editions released on Beggars Banquet. "Bela Lugosi's Dead (Tomb Raider Mix)" is a new mix based on the Hammersmith Palais '81 live performance (the same as on Press the Eject). It has a constant rhythm (the live take starts at a gallop, quickly slowing to a canter) and uses a studio vocal that was added to the multi-track. There are already three versions of "Terror Couple Kill Colonel" on the box set (that's enough) but the "Spaceward Studio 24 April 1980" version was briefly available (by accident) on a re-press of the vinyl single and quickly withdrawn, and now included here. You also get "Double Dare (Southern Studio Mix #1)" - the unreleased mix #4 is on the box set but this is an earlier take; "A God in an Alcove;" "Poison Pen;" "Hollow Hills (Live at University Of London Union 31 October 1980);" and "Poem" - recorded at Space Place, Chicago 9 September 1980, from a bootleg. A bit of fun that Peter employed during some of the 1980 shows.
