Roky Erickson CD Club 2019 - RIP Roky
Refreshed and Renewed! Freshly polished inside and out for 2019 ... and beyond.
Release: ROKCDR036
DEMOS
Tracks 1 and 2 are from the "demos" cassette. Tracks 3-6 are of the same era but in much better quality. These were sourced from clean vinyl and processed to remove stray ticks and pops. They have never appeared on CD and as such are a major find.
Track 3 is the same performance of "Monkey Island", but it was truncated on the LP. The differing sound quality made it impractical to splice them together, and so both can be found here.
KAZZ
Tracks 7 through 15 are the KAZZ show. These have been presented previously by the Roky CD Club on "Reverberation in the Round" but taken from a vinyl source. That tape was edited and the songs out of sequence, although the processing may have been more successful overall. (The vinyl boot may have come from cleaner tapes, although none seem to be in circulation.) This new version is intended to contrast the previous one, not to replace it. The speed is correct, and digital artifacts kept to a bare minimum.
Half the enjoyment is in the DJ patter, most of which is missing from "Reverberation in the Round". The announcer sounds as if he had come of age in the swing band era. Presumably he despised the garage rock scene but, consummate professional that he was, we will never know for sure.
SESSIONS
Much of tracks 16 through 27 overlap with the "Ortman tape" heard on "High Baptismal Flow", and the quality is comparable to that. However several songs on each are not found on the other. Since this tape came directly from International Artists, it is worth preserving in its entirety here.

THE CASSETTE
With the exception of tracks #3 through #7, all of these were recovered from reference cassettes found with a stash of International Artists multitrack master tapes (as well as the reel-to-reel deck upon which "Easter Everywhere" was recorded), purchased at a garage sale in the Southwest in 2004.
The "demos" cassette features a white printed label, blank except for "RCA Cassette Duplicating, 8206 Westpark Dr. Houston, Texas 77063." One side contains the KAZZ-FM show, the other is demos from January and April 1966, some of which were later used for the so-called "Live" album. Applause was dubbed onto them, but this tape contains the original mixes (albeit in mediocre quality).
This CD marks the first time "Everybody Needs Somebody" has been heard without the crowd overdubs, as well as the first time this rendition of "Monkey Island" has been presented in its entirety.
