Brian Eno & David Byrne - LOT (INTO THE SPIRIT WORLD)

[@GrantTarredus]

I’m thrilled and very grateful to hear (and see) this, having loved My Life in the Bush of Ghosts since the day it was released in 1981. I wish I had known about this surfacing when it happened. Thank you very much.

[@Oysterfeather]

This album too has been with me since it was released. A true masterpiece. I have listened to “ Quran” well over 5,000 times.!it was only in the initial release. This track fits so very well with it.

[@leosduda4285]

Eno & Byrne ❤❤️💯💥👍👍

[@francofusario1855]

Very beautiful this more relaxing and ethereal version, beautiful almost reciting voice.

[@ThePywackett]

One of my all time favorite albums! Way ahead of its time!

[@joelleferreira4292]

Already was under the spell of the 80's LP.. This is absolutely admirable, the acoustic perfection, the visual development, a travel inside Space from here to there and then infinitely

[@brenmurf61]

Always good to hear other versions. Love it

[@DaveRoberts777]

first time of hearing and have loved this album for years, thanks for sharing

[@v3ck1n]

The howling train horn in the background is what keeps me listening

[@johnk4437]

Fantastic ! ❤

[@danehlers9989]

I just played this on my CD player from an Eno/Byrne mix from those early days.

[@agz7269]

Nice seed sown for The Jezebel Spirit. Evolved into a spooky masterpiece. Thanks for upload

[@stevesaussey8109]

So interesting! Such a different tone to the version on the album. Her voice is much more integrated with the music, whereas the male exorcist somehow counters it. Thanks for revealing this to the world!

[@TheSection59]

i like the Jezebel Spirit better, no not better, different! great music and thanks for uploading Diego Trystero

[@JohnLargo-k8g]

I love this album. Bought in the summer of '82. Lost album in '05. Still have the cassette which eventually broke from play. Even read the book I checked out of San Bernardino Valley College by Amos Tutuola. Need this on CD and The Catherine Wheel by Byrne and Twyla Tharp. I recommend fellow talking album around the same time, The Red and the Black and everything Eno. And The Flying Lizards and The Suburban Lawns and Oingo Bingo and The Specials etc......

[@JohnLargo-k8g]

Forgot to mention Jerry Harrison, keyboard for Talking Heads did The Red and the Black. Sorry Jerry.

[@jimmyscutts8082]

Incredible story. Thanks! For Byrne fans always remember The Catherine Wheel is almost as good as this album!

[@Oysterfeather]

This track adds a lot to the entire pie. Love it! Thank you, Diego!

[@HeloisaAOliveira]

really cool and inspiring to dance to ...

[@marcussquires6336]

Always inspired. Safe journeys.

[@henrimessinghausen5185]

A true gem...

[@rabeainmusic]

Am the 333 lover of this fantastic listening experience

[@curiousgemini]

Found the album on Spotify, but it didn't have this track. Thanx for posting! It's interesting to compare in to the "The Jezebel Spirit".

[@timeno1763]

~Same spirit. Modified masque. Hitchhiking with Kathryn Kuhlman. He sees through all of them, even the Satoris. Vigiles Salutis.

[@willyberthold7905]

rare Song Great...thanx !!

[@vincebaak5718]

Way ahead? Give me a break! This album is MILES if not MILES ahead of it's time!

[@jeffreykinart8858]

still is. Ahead of times behind times...

[@jaejudson3057]

I kinda liked watching Khulman back in the old days. I found her to be interesting to listen to back then . I couldn't understand a word of what she was saying. Similar to watching a foreign language program. I find this track to be one of my favorites. Thanks for putting it up, Diego. 🎺

[@diegotrystero]

I remember when in 1980 the musical magazines in Italy wrote about the forthcoming Eno&Byrne album. When the release was deleted because of the Katherine Kuhlman voice, I read an article (probably in a fanzine) in which a bootlegger offered a tape with the "first sessions". I bought that tape and I think that also other people made the same thing. After some months I saw Magazzini Criminali in "Crollo Nervoso" shocking act, with some tracks of the soundtrack taken from the same source.

[@joelleferreira4292]

Living in Paris, France, when the album «My Life in the Bush of Ghosts» went out. As I was already fascinated by Roxy Music and Talking Heads realisations, obviously I adquired the vynil of this very wellseen and welcome duo, and I never regretted it 👌🏻 I love Music I know the voices I also met the bush and its sad creatures (accepting to lose a substantial part of oneself cannot be a happy will) and only The Super-powered Spiritual Mind knows I was able to be there, here, Face to Face : it takes to be clean inside 🙂 and a musician as well.

[@BOFsensai]

You can easily hear that Kuhlman did Eno/ Byrne a huge favour because, beside KK's witterings being inconsequentially inane (& so originally losing any 'recognition'), the reworked 'Jezebel;' is far superior - being spookier/ menacing.

[@carlosreira2189]

Those "witherings" are the words of a thaumaturge. Let me tell you something--hell is having to listen to this repetitious tech shit for eternity.

[@GrantTarredus]

You nailed it, Paul! So true.

[@carlosreira2189]

@@GrantTarredus "What is truth?"

[@BOFsensai]

@@GrantTarredus Well, hello S: = appreciated 🙂

[@BOFsensai]

@@carlosreira2189 Hmm: interesting: may well be WITHerings - as I discern your take on the track? But I still thought she sounded like she was WITTering - in that, exactly what is KK trying to impart? (See the 'Lot' story in Genesis 19.5; 7-8! Nasty!)

[@rodjack1378]

Well hell yeah!

[@victoryibril]

maravilloso

[@garyisok1]

divine bass line - just like jezebel spirit

[@vivalapsych]

Wow this sounds a lot better than my old tape!

[@t42press15]

incredible after the settlement; thanks for giving up the ghost beyotch

[@peterreed8349]

Why can't I add this to a playlist?

[@pierrebernasconi1010]

First time listening...sounds like a toned down version of Jezebel. But this could also have been used for a Bowie song. Her voice is definitely not as audible as in the final version. Great find, thank you!

[@acolderconsciousness]

Diego, I found that you had posted this track on Discogs - can you shed any light on how / why this and 'Mea Culpa' appear on Magazzini's Crollo Nervoso although they were previously unreleased? Have you done any research on the matter?

[@renewillemsen5605]

~Spiritual~

[@kevinscientist]

Much more sparse, the arrangements. Awesome to hear what the stuff we got came from.

[@AlienEntity90]

Yayayyayayyaaaaaaa! 🫦

[@memorymedia6188]

Jezebel Spirit is a much tighter mix.

[@jmdavison62]

This is the best sounding "Into the Spirit World" I've heard. Did "the mad taper" say where it came from and where one might be able to get it now?

[@diegotrystero]

Hans “the mad taper” (search Google) was a dutch Sony employee and then radio conductor, friend of many rock musicians. He taped many demos, unfinished tracks, live acts… Chris Frantz of Talking Heads wrote about him in his "Remain In Love" book. Years ago Hans put his gigantic tape archives online but every week his blog was closed. Changed name and web address but again closed… many, many times. Some tapes are still available in “Guitars101” and "The International Echoes Hub" forums, also the full “My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts” first sessions. I remember he wrote that this tape was given to him by David Byrne.

[@diegotrystero]

Sorry for the delay in replying. "Hans De Vente (The Mad Taper) was a friend of the Talking Heads and is also mentioned in the book written by Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth "Remain In Love." Ten years ago he published the demo version of "My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts" in his blog, which was later shut down. He reopened others, but they were all closed. He then gave many of his tapes (demos and live recordings) to the Guitar101 forum, and many can still be found there.

Hey, Trystro, where can I buy postage for the W.A.S.T.E. system?

[@Cosmicprog2012]

THANKS GOD, Katherine Kuhlman WAS FINALLY OFF!

[@vanhetgoor]

I would like to know how the story ends. Being cut off after only six minutes makes you wonder what happens next. Is anybody in a position to ask Brian ENO to release the long uncut version? For his special fans!

[@t42press15]

go to his KZbin channel here on KZbin !!

[@ehlerhog]

@@t42press15 I believe the man wants to purchase it as would I. Maybe a digital download???

[@EeEe00Ee]

That's so great! I'd heard of this version, but never heard it. TBH, I don't like it as much as what they ended up releasing. It's still wonderful though!

[@dennisfrank6428]

Katherine Kuhlman was on TV around the same time as Elvira's creature features in LA. Not sure which channel was more creepy.

[@timeno1763]

Kathryn Kuhlman operated beyond the veil. Jezebel was controlled from beyond the veil. Kathryn Kuhlman rests in Glory. Have you read of the demise of Jezebel? (2 Kings 9:30-37)

[@THDYoung]

seldom have to wait too long for the bass

[@huuing]

‘Jezebel Spirit’ was my least favorite cut on the album, found a bootleg of this years ago and always thought it was a missed opportunity, no fault of BE and DB.

[@MichaelFlynn0]

Jezebel Spirit is WAY better IMHO.
