Waterspout (1987 Mix)

This is Waterspout as it stood when it was being reworked in 1987 for that year's version of the unreleased Cold Cuts project and later on All the Best. Although really close for inclusion on the latter album, it was ultimately dropped. Although lossy, we can tell that the track has been worked on quite a bit since it was last reworked for the scrapped 1981 version of Cold Cuts. For starters, ad libs that were buried in the 1981 mix are now audible. The vocal is now single tracked, and a TON of backing vocals were added onto this version, turning into a full on choir during the bridges. There are small lyric changes during the verses. Instrumentally, the song is the same, although remixed. The bass is now at the front, and an extra bass drum is added. Whether this is an actual bass drum or a drum machine is totally up for debate. Contrary to popular belief, the brass parts were added during the 1981 sessions for Cold Cuts, so this was not an addition made in 1987. Even though I usually list personnel for these tracks, I am not going to attempt here. The song was worked on at different stages throughout a ten year period so it is hard to pinpoint who worked on what throughout the years. My guess is the instrumental was all Paul. He, Linda and Denny are all present on the backing vocals, although it is only Paul and Linda (that we know of) who did backing vocals on the 1987 mix. Denny's vocal parts in this version are sparse, really only showing up at the end.
