Kip's Notes:-
These are demo recordings of the songs that would later make the Beautiful South album Choke.
These were shared with me on cassette from within the band years ago.
As they were spread over two tapes I’ve compiled them here for you in one file.
You’ll notice some duplicate tracks and some cuts.
Remaster Notes:-
Once again audio gold from our friend Kip.
Can't thank him enough for his shares, a real gent & all round top man.
Tracks 4 & 7 just cut off so I did some fades for those.
All had some restoration & then some gentle eq & limiting.
These are the best versions I have heard,
still at times there is some hiss & rumble,
but overall a great listen & superb gem for lovers of B.S.
Dream Remastered @ Reflecting Sound Studios, Southampton, England, March 2018.

Freely given to you, so don't charge others.
