SHARE: Intro / Jacqui Brookes

[PKPN]

Here's three of my lossless vinyl rips for y'all, of releases still and probably forever unavailable on CD:

• [1983] Intro - Haunted Cocktails [MCAT 794] – UK 12"
• [1983] Jacqui Brookes - Lost Without Your Love [L33-1153] – US promo 12"
• [1984] Jacqui Brookes - Sob Stories [MCA-5467] – US LP

I also have the Disconet edit of Haunted Cocktails but did not include it here. It's just both sides of the 12" cut together.

The Sob Stories LP is kind of a letdown after the amazing 12"s. It's like they made her go pop. It has its moments, but overall just doesn't work as well.

I am hoping someone out there can supply a nice lossless rip of other stuff by this artist, especially the older material, such as:

• Shox - No Turning Back 7"
• Siam - Farewell Siam LP
• Siam - Don't Look Back 7"
• Siam - Catrix 7"
• Siam - Deja Vu 7"
• Intro - Haunted Cocktails 7"

(I have MP3s of most of these but they are of fair to middlin' quality, and some are mono.)

Lost Without Your Love (7" / 12" UK) also includes the track "Epic". Thats why I am including it.

The Shox MP3s are from a remastered CD (unreleased though!) and are apparently an iTunes download of their own now. They do sound quite nice. Thanks for those!

I already had all the other MP3s; they were on the Fade 2 Grey blog and I think Jacqui had her own site for a while too where you could download them.

As I said, those old MP3s are of fair to middlin' quality, for me. "Epic" has weak treble, and all six of the Siam 7" rips are mono and were made with a mid-2000 version of LAME.

There was another file in there, though: "Siam - Don't Look Back (Spiral Tribe Extended Edit)"...not sure what the provenance of that one is. What's the story with that?

Anyway I do appreciate the effort. I'm glad other people like the sound of this music.

The Shox single in flac.
