Produced by Terry Melcher

 

Recorded in 1965 - 1966

This band released one single only in 1966 while in existence: “Candy Man” backed with “The Devil’s Got My Woman”. But they recorded many other tracks (produced by Terry Melcher) for an LP that remained unreleased. Some of these other tracks were officially released in 1992 on CD (Columbia / Legacy CK 52828 – 22 tracks), and on vinyl in 2001 (Sundazed LP5054 – 12 tracks). But an 18 track unofficial CD was released earlier (ISRAPHON ISR 009 CD – year unknown), and even earlier, tracks were first released on a bootleg LP (Groucho Records MAR-X 38501 – 17 tracks mentioned on back cover but only 16 tracks on vinyl itself). What you have here is a fresh vinyl rip of the latter, my Groucho Records LP.

When the bootleggers laid their hands on the tape, the song titles were unknown so they guessed them. Many are wrong on the LP rear cover. Here are the song titles mentioned on the rear cover, followed by actual song titles as they appeared on the official Columbia CD:

 

A1 Diving Duck Blues = If The River Was Whiskey (Divin’ Duck Blues)

A2 Untitled = Spanish Lace Blues

A3 Got My 44 = .44 Blues

A4 Sorry To Tell You = Flyin’ So High

A5 Down To Mexico = Tulsa County

A6 Sorry To Tell You (reprise) = Flyin’ So High (reprise)

A7 Step Outside You Mind = Take A Giant Step

A8 Untitled = 2:10 Train

 

B1 She Don’t Love Me No More = 11th Street Overcrossing

B2 32-30 (I Got A Little) = I Got A Little

B3 By And By = By And By (Poor Me)

B4 Sunny Street = Sunny’s Dream

B5 Walkin’ Down The Line = correct title!

B6 Candy Man = correct title!

B7 Devil Got My Woman = The Devil’s Got My Woman

B8 Corrina = Corrin, Corrina

B9 Sorry To Tell You = Flyin’ So High = MENTIONED ON REAR COVER BUT NOT PRESENT ON ACTUAL VINYL

Actual Track Listing with lengths:

Gram Parsons – The Neon Bread Tape

Studio, New York, NY

I have more than serious doubts about this being from the early 70s though. It lasts just under 2 hours and there are no tracks by either The International Submarine Band or The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers or Gram’s solo LPs. My guess is that it’s from the mid-sixties.
