I have those coloured vinyl reissues of the "His 'n' Hers" and "Different Class" singles from 1996 and they are certainly very interesting. Legend has it that there is some sort of box-set containing the above but I have never seen one of these (was it official?).

Found a couple of the CD singles Pulp did in the Island years, and my god, i can't wait for the proper releases. Ive got most bar about 2 DC CD2 singles, help the aged and a little soul from TIH and the WLL singles, so i've still got something to look forward to. Watched the Lipgloss shoddy 'remaster' if we can even call it that. Hugo's work will always remain supreme and will always be the first choice for me as with others hopefully. I hope this leads to more releases from Pulp (that bloody WLL deluxe in mind) and some of the demos and unreleased tracks coming to light. crossing my fingers for a box set of some kind.

 Some enterprising bootlegger did print some boxes up. I think there was one for sale on Esprit years ago but they weren't official. There was a bit of a run on 7" reissues at this point- I think Kula Shaker did the same and there was an official box.

Hugo's remaster is up and it looks like an actual HD remaster too, cracking quality!

Do You Remember the First Time? is now up on streaming.

Don't all rush at once.

The cynic in me wonders whether one of the major drivers for this exercise is that Jarvis is tired of seeing the Singles and EPs section of streaming services being dominated by Fire reissues, and wants to dilute it a little?

Also a greater source of revenue for him and the band if there's more material available for streaming - although the likes of Spotify hardly pay big bucks.

It's cool to have them up there as standalone singles with b-sides intact. Looking forward to more.

Sisters EP out digitally now.

I think that Babies Edit has been replaced with the full length 94 version from His 'n' Hers, and called Single Mix. At least, that's what it sounds like to my ears.

Your Sister's Clothes fades out, as per the vinyl and the His 'n' Hers deluxe edition, rather than continuing directly into Seconds, as per the original Sisters CD and the appearances on compilations like Second Class.

To satisfy my curiosity, I bought the EPs (from Qobuz) and am now certain that all tracks are copied from His 'n' Hers Deluxe. So we have the wrong mix/edit of Babies with a misleading title, and the same version of Your Sister's Clothes we had before.

Common People is the first single where Universal could look very silly if they don't upload some of the original tracks, so looking forward to next Friday to see what happens. If it's just the full-length CP and Underwear, then we'll know it's just a repackaging exercise for the existing Deluxe tracks. I'm hoping for the CD2 acoustic tracks at minimum; the 7" edit ideally; the Motiv 8 mixes if they are really paying attention to the back catalogue; and the Black Session tracks from the French B-sides if someone from Universal reads Pulp Wiki (though by that logic, the acoustic tracks would have appeared with Do You Remember the First Time?, so very unlikely). I'll explode with surprise if they include the German vinyl remixes. 

Something worth mentioning about the Qobuz filenames: they generally contain the artist and track title, so I was expecting to see them under Pulp, as shown on their release page (www.qobuz.com/gb-en/album/the-sisters-ep-pulp/jgj7k6n8tm0db), and indeed the EPs download as Pulp-Lipgloss_EP, Pulp-The_Sisters_EP, etc. Yet the individual tracks within these EPs are all titled Steve_Mackey:

e.g.
01-01-Steve_Mackey-Babies-LLS
01-02-Steve_Mackey-Your_Sister_s_Clothes-LLS
01-03-Steve_Mackey-Seconds-LLS
01-04-Steve_Mackey-His_N_Hers-LLS

So, I'm now considering these to be Steve Mackey commemorative releases.

On Qobuz, release dates are very confusing. It's the original dates... If they've just copied and pasted tracks from deluxe Edition, then it's a total mess.

I thought the videos were supposed to be 4K upgraded. Nothing new on YouTube. Fortunately, the unofficial ones are available (not DYRTFT)...

The release dates are the same across all the streaming and download sites that I've seen, they've been published under old dates. I see the same on Spotify, 7digital, iTunes, etc.

And the copying of tracks from the Deluxe Editions seems to be uniform across all platforms... I wasn't suggesting Qobuz were to blame for that. They're just my preferred music store!

 They aren't new uploads per se - it's the existing video on YouTube, then you manually update the resolution to the newly-available 4k.

 You're right. Thank you.

The main issue I have with these 'upscales' is they often throw the baby out with the bath water by smoothing out details (particularly on faces) and introducing artefacts by oversharpening edges to a ridiculous degree. 


 Just looked at DYRTFT? on my 4K telly and sad to say it looks absolutely horrible for exactly the reasons above. Think I'll stick with the Hits DVD.

I think Hugo wins this round as well.

The extended mix of Pencil Skirt with Russell's violin solo at the beginning and a proper conclusion, instead of the lazy fade out that turns the song into something wholly more palatable and interesting.

I can't recall off hand- where did that originally appear???

Surely I am not imagining it?

Pencil Skirt with an extended ending? Not sure I can place that, but any live versions have a few extra bars at the start (where the album version fades in - very effectively, IMHO). The Peel Session got released like that.

Ah yes. It was the Peel session. I lost my CD of that during the dark ages when everyone was tossing their dead media.

Vast improvement on the album version, though. Surly I am not in the minority on this point.

Checking tickets yesterday at Ped Gate C. Two customers came through, and my keen eye caught their address ** Lyndhurst Grove.

They knew the song, they've met Jarvis and will be watching them on Saturday. What are the chances of me checking tickets of people who live on Lyndhurst Grove .

Just on my final shift now, I'm free at two for the rest of the festival
