This is from my own collection, originally purchased over 30 years ago. An amazing orange vinyl disc from the highly collectable Trade mark of Quality range. It was shipped to me directly from Godzilla records in California all those years ago and has been in my collection ever since. It was placed in a PVC protective sleeve from the point of purchase and has not been out of it until today (to make the scans). I can assure you it has only ever been handled with extreme care and played on top quality audiophile equipment - I would be very surprised if a better condition copy exists anywhere. Fine artwork by William Stout. Note - Have You Heard The Word, although for some time considered a genuine Beatles underground rarity is in fact a spoof he is the TRUE story:
Two Australians Steve Kipner and Steve Groves arrived in England early in 1969 and were signed by Maurice Gibb for his new production company under the band name of "Tin Tin". Maurice Gibb already knew Steve Kipner, as Steve was the son of Nat Kipner, who had been involved with the Bee Gees last Australian album, plus Steve had recorded the Gibb song Little Miss Rhythm and Blues with his band Steve and the Board.
Kipner and Groves had written a song entitled "Have You Heard The Word" which they intended to record at their next recording session at which Maurice Gibb was due to produce. At the rehearsal session in August 1969 at the I.B.C. studio in London, Maurice arrived with his wife (at the time), Lulu, and her brother Billy Laurie, plus most importantly for this destined for legendary status session, a bottle of Johnnie Walker scotch !
The bottle was consumed by all, which left the band too drunk to sing, so just for a joke the two Steve's, Maurice Gibb and Billy Laurie put on headphones and crowded around the studio mike. Using a backing track for the intended song that had been recorded earlier by Kipner and Groves, they launched into a Beatles impersonation (with deliberation). The only recording was made live, with no overdubs made afterwards. Basically, it was just a good laugh ... a good sing-song ... then everyone went home.
The song was NOT intended for release, and the tape of the session's movement from the studio to the cutting room is unknown, although I suspect a recording engineer somewhere out there could complete that part of the story.
May interest collectors of rare UK & US original lp, psych , prog , rock, blues, 1960's Beat Groups and R&B, west coast, as well as fans of rare live & outtakes from TMOQ , TMQ , TAKRL , K&S , WIZARDO , IDLE MIND & various MCV or color vinyl.
