Favoriting Discotech Underground with Kip Brown: Playlist from January 17, 2023 Favoriting

Discotech Underground's avatar View Discotech Underground's profile Favoriting

Discotech Underground is actually two...two...two shows in one!

The first half is a "Happy Hour" of sorts (because it's five o'clock somewhere, right?), spinning the kinds of sounds you might have heard at a real, authentic 1960's DISCOTECH as cool cats and swingin' chicks danced the night away in their mod threads and mini skirts to hard-driving sounds under the flashing lights! The only thing missing are the cage dancers...but we're working on it!

The second half is for when you head home after a wild night, and ease in with the heady, trippy, mind-expanding sounds of a groovy free-form UNDERGROUND rock radio station that digs deep into their library and blows your mind all over again!

Capitol notoriously chopped up Beatles LP for US release, using single, UK LP and EP tracks to fill out enough space to make an album. The thing is, they ended up being how American fans remember them to the point where the UK releases just don't flow the same way we are used to them flowing.

Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 4:17pm

↳ WLSClark @4:16
Most of the time it was fake stereo with all the highs rolled off on one side and all the bass rolled off on the other. The Stones, Who and Yardbirds albums all had that done to them and they sounded just atrocious. That's why the monos are SO much better

Youd think they might cut four too if they were doing that. Of course, same thing happened with Blue Jeans' "Hippy HippY' which stations were saying was the Beatles sometimes. Of course it DID sound just like the fabs.

I'm the same way about the US Rubber Soul. In the UK version even the lack of the false start on "I'm Looking Through You" always sounds wrong to me. For all of his other sins, Dave Dexter, Jr. deserves credit for the American Rubber Soul, which was the version that inspired Brian Wilson to produce Pet Sounds.

Yes, mostly. British record buyers didn't like singles on albums because it felt to them like they were buying the same thing twice. In America, singles were what helped the albums sell and were considered essential.

The British Revolver is superior to the American because of the inclusion of the omitted tracks, which oddly enough appeared in America BEFORE the Revolver album was released in the UK.

Many tracks originated on British EP's as well, which again, were not duplicated on album. Young British record buyers were not as financially well heeled as American teenagers so they had to be frugal and get the most for their money. Buying tracks they already had was a turn off for them.

One good thing that did come out of some of that is that bands are more interested in doing their own thing rather than getting swallowed up and spit out by the majors looking to capitalize on a trend.

Hi Kip and folks, have been listening since the beginning but was on a work call until now.

This is way way late to the conversation, but at the beginning of the show there was discussion about the US vs UK album releases. Dave Dexter was mentioned in the conversation, but don't know if it was emphasized how very much he decided what EMI rock and pop was released by Capitol in the US until 1966. I base this on what I read on his Wikipedia page but the events line up:
