In fact most of the tracks here are running at the same speed as we know them from their officially released versions (or some of them). A few exceptions: - 03 Mom And Dad - 09 Mother People - 10 The Idiot Bastard Son These three tracks are running at somewhat odd speed/pitch levels and it might be worth taking a closer look at each of them. 03 Mom And Dad: The "original acetate" version of this song is running much too fast compared to the officially released one (a bit off the F# key for the main song, a different bit off the F key for the instrumental interlude portion). In the "speed corrected" folder we are hearing Mom And Dad (main section corrected -170cts from "orig.acetate" speed/interlude: -135cts). This way we are hearing the main song in the key of E minor (as with the official WOIIFTM release) and the interlude in Eb major. A "true speed" version of this same track can also be heard here (in extra "true speed" subfolder), in which the main song again has been corrected to E minor (-170cts), and the interlude part to D major (-235cts), now in line with the pitch level of the same instrumental interlude part in Track 06 What's The Ugliest Part Of Your Body 09 Mother People: Original acetate here is running a quarter tone too slow, The speed corrected version (+50cts) is running in F major, as in the official WOIIFTM release. A "true speed" version (-250cts) can be heard running in D major, in which FZ's singing voice is sounding more natural than in the faster running 'munchkin voice' WOIIFTM release versions. The live versions of Mother People (with the 1970 Flo & Eddie line up) are also being played in D major, so it's fair to assume that this is the 'original' key with this song. 10 The Idiot Bastard Son: Original acetate here is running again at odd pitch level, again about a quarter tone off the closest 'playable' key. We have included two speed corrected versions here: Track 10 (-50cts) corresponds to the orig. official WOIIFTM version, in E major. Track 10a (+50cts) in F major, corresponds to the version in the remeastered WOIIFTM release. A possible "true speed" version (-250cts) corresponds to the instrumental version of this song in D major, as heard in Lumpy Money Disc 3. However, the FZ voice here sounds definitely too slow. So we can assume that in a first stage the intrumental parts have been recorded in D (--> LM version), and later on Frank may have dubbed his voice onto a sped up version of this track, probably in E major. Additional notes: The instrumental interlude in Mom And Dad is in fact from What's The Ugliest Part Of Your Body ?, not from Concentration Moon, as the entry of this recording in FZshows originally suggested. We can hear some of the same parts in the Money Demo version of 06 WTUPOYB here. Interesting to hear that additional portion of unknown origin {1:19-1:29}, probably an otherwise unreleased portion of the same song. Anyway, this whole recording should make a terrific complement to the Lumpy Money release.
