Egyptian Lover – The Alezby Inn (Egyptian Empire Acetate 1985) Original unreleased Version Sample
Well here's a a real special one, West Coast Electro Rarity right here! I have recorded this one from a "Bernie Grundman" Mastering Acetate dated 21 August 1985, 2 years older than the known official Release which came out in 1987, indeed this one's an older, different & totally unreleased Version, on the B-Side there's an unreleased Instrumental as well. The Artwork Cover you see in the clip was made by "Egyptian Lover" himself, this is not one of the individual actual Artwork-Covers that you can buy from "Egyptian Lover", this is 100 % vintage, created in 1985! As you can see on the cover it reads DMSR-00669. This surely means that this should have been the Cat-No. ! As it never came out he used this cat-no. for "You're so fine" which came out in February 1986. I am the lucky owner of both Acetates "Alezby Inn" Acetates, 1985 Version and 1987 Version, in this clip you can see them both inclusive all vintage "Egypt" Artwork! As this version is totally unreleased I only recorded a sound sample, but a very long sample, 7:29 min of 9:36 min, I have cut only 2 minutes, definitely long enough to realize the freshness and of course the difference to the other version, the main Synths Melody is totally missing here, the Beats are harder and the vocals are louder! The arrangement is different as well inclusive some never heard Breaks. So check it out ... you will not be disappointed! Peace
