Nik Kershaw - One World (RARE Japanese Version STEREO)

Within a deep crevice, lies an alternative recording of 'One World' ~
A song from The Works (1989) Same song? Sort of... - Roll on two years later (1991) Some sort of parallel universe reality occurs, A white label jewel case from JAPAN features 'One World' (with a twist) - Only to surprise fans with a complete different / re-recorded version of the song in mono. This very particular version appeared ONLY on the Japan edition of 'The Collection' compilation. Was this a demo version showcased to Chesney, which Hawkes then recorded that year? Sounds most likely, as it's different to The Works (album version) Rare? YES! - And here it is for the first time in Stereo.
Enjoy,
DCP x

Thank you so much! This is an awesome version and it really made my morning start out right. Nik Kershaw is the best!❤❤❤

[@ReverendMuncle]

Once again... Words fail me. Just, bravo. Bravo and thank you again.

[@ReverendMuncle]

For more than 35 years I genuinely thought no one could love, or know more about, Lord Nicholas of Kershaw than me. But then you come along, with regular uploads of just insane insight and adoration. I've learnt so much about my favourite artist from your channel. I owe you a pint

[@andreyputsillo9046]

This song was performed with approximately the same arrangement by Chesney Hawkes in the album 91"The One And Only". kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3bPd2yvobd0p6s

[@DarkCornerProductions]

Chesney's version is great also! Thank you for the link. 😄

[@mattycc]

Chesney’s is a carbon copy-having said that, why the hell not!

[@WayneIzard]

Such a great version Maybe would have been a chance to be his last big hit if it was ever released in 1989

[@er9779]

Hey. Love this. Gotta ask - where did you find this stereo version??? Thanks!

[@DarkCornerProductions]

Hello, I acquired this version, some decade ago with a former employee at Universal. 1 of 2 copies are only in existence, am extremely privileged.

[@er9779]

@@DarkCornerProductions Wow. What format did you get it on?

[@DarkCornerProductions]

@@er9779 I acquired an Ampex 499 Grand Master Reel.

[@er9779]

@@DarkCornerProductions Oh wow, do you have a machine that plays those tapes?

[@DarkCornerProductions]

@er9779 I do not, but I knew someone who transfered it digitally for me. I received AIFF file from the master.

[@PeteTheFlowerpot]

Come on, this isn't in stereo and you know it. You've added a bit of top end but it's still the same mono version.

[@DarkCornerProductions]

It is stereo...

[@stevehoggarth]

As an audio engineer, I can confidently tell you, this is the definitive stereo version.
