Hey,

sounds obscene in my opinion, well, that heavy breathing I mean...  ;D ;D

In fact, not too different, isn't it?

Surely not a good recording to draw any conclusions. And yes this heavy breathing is a bit, how can i put it nicely, peculiar. Nevertheless, we are in "the forum" so we can dig a bit further. Any thoughts?
I think i know at least 3 studio recordings of SOS. One at the Oval label, one the common official at the album and a third one at the 7'' single with the "alternative version" mentioned. Could be from any of these three versions (probably not the official, since it wouldn't be noticed as different).
One more i  am not sure is different from the ones aforementioned, comes from the "Early tapes" bootleg and since there are two versions of them as well (one with corrected speed) , well we might be talking for at least four versions (five if you count the crooked speed as one).
