Hi
I'm presuming the booklet that came with 'let yourself go' has full recording details for all the tracks - would someone with a copy assist me by checking up on the finished recording dates for the following tracks, please:
shoop shoop song
i can never recover
he's my man
where do i go from here
you can't stop a girl in love [early version].
any help much appreciated, thanks.

there isn't always a lot or complete information on the recording sessions. so we have to sort of go with what we've got
In Dec 74 the girls started recording with Michael Lloyd [[Shoop and It's all been said) and with Clayton Ivey & Terry Woodford.
For Shoop, the dates we have are 12/11/74 vocals recorded, 12/12 more vocals and 12/13 more vocals. there isn't any more info
I can never recover - i don't believe we have any recording info on this one
He's my man - 3/17 drums added, 4/4 strings added, 4/5 horns added
Where do i go from here - 3/13 horns added, 3/15 more horns and strings, 4/4 background vocals, 4/8 more strings, 4/9 lead vocals
You can't stop a girl [[early) - 2/5 tambourine recorded, 2/24 lead and backgrounds recorded, 2/25 lead and backgrounds [[but not sure if this was early or later version)
Thanks for the info sup_fan. As it happens 'i can never recover' is the one i'm most interested in - is your hunch that it was recorded around the same time as the others apart from 'shoop' [essentially Feb-April 1975 from what you say above], or a bit later? To my ears, it has a bit more of that 'early disco' feel that leaves me thinking 2nd half of '75?
no i think it was a little later. i don't have my notes in front of me - was ICNR produced by the Hollands?Quote:

the album was eventually released in May 75. don't really know if early or late May. but that gives us 5 or so months of recording.
