Description

Here’s a studio acetate containing an undocumented and unreleased version of Lee Hazlewood's Trouble Is a Lonesome Town. It seems to be a shelved attempt to revise the original album for the 1969 re-release on LHI. Ultimately, the album was reissued unaltered. The unique version on this acetate contains spoken intros the are all different takes, with different guitar accompaniment than the ones on the released versions. More interestingly, it incorporates tracks from Hazlewood’s catalog that were never even on this LP, and adds unreleased spoken intros to each, including “Suzi Jane Is Back In Town” and even the Hazlewood-produced psych single “I Can’t Help the Way I Feel” by the band Last Friday’s Fire. It also includes one unreleased instrumental track. The record has lots of scuffs and surface marks, but plays well enough to enjoy. A few audio clips are below, followed by track list and details:
