Kum Back (Rough Kut Trax KB-775)
It's a title that spotlights and digs up vintage early analog records that have been buried.
The original LP "KUM BACK" (Blue Stamp Cover LP, Non Label, Matrix 775 SIDE 1/2) and "KUM BACK" (MAK 327/328), the same title but with different content, were directly
coupled from the original LPs owned by the label, and the two masterings are included on two CDs.
These are very rare and phantom first records recorded in real stereo, unlike other Kum Back titles and their copies that were rampant at the time. This time, we will
focus on Blue Stamp Cover LP Matrix 775 (hereinafter referred to as "775"). Since this 775 is a blank label with white label side, we call it so here because of Stamper's
matrix engraving, but there are two kinds of matrixes, one with "775" engraved on both sides and the other with only A side. Perhaps back then (a few at a time?) It seems
to have been pressed more than once, and it is assumed that the engraving of 775 was added to the B side at the second and subsequent pressings for easy identification. This
is thought to be the original stamper with 775 added because the original SIDE 2 mark on B side is the same handwriting.
In addition, I would like to note here that there are actually other inscriptions on the Inner Groove in very small letters, as information that cannot be found only on the
Internet. Throughout the 70's, there were so many versions of this album, including the red-stamped KUM BACK, which was inferior in terms of both sound and stereo separation, as well as the slick-specification version and other copies, that the existence of the original album seems to have been obscured and buried.
Therefore, "Kum Back" may have been widely recognized as a copy of the album, which was put into mono and had a poor sound quality. After that, it became a CD era, and you
can hear the radio broadcast version of the time on foreign labels such as Vigotone and YD, and in recent years you can hear the CD version "Untouched" with a pretty fresh
sound, and it became a topic of conversation among fans.
However, the sound of KUM BACK, which can be seen on the net now, is usually mono, not real stereo sound like 775, and it seems to be circulated with misunderstood
information as usual. This time, we're going to dig up "Kum Back" from the first LPs. This time, the main blue-stamped KUM BACK 775 was used as a base, and the performance
mystique and conversation part were cut out as much as possible, and also two Mono tracks (including One After 909 was cut out in the song) were added to the blue-stamped 775.
In addition to the yellow label, there is also a red label version, and another KUM BACK (No Label, blank label with a fairly small label length of 75mm) with a sticker
printed "KUM BACK" on a fluorescent background on the front cover. This fluorescent sticker disc is shown on the front page of this CD cover as a reference item though it is
small. As both versions of KUM BACK are different from the other "GET BACK" albums in stereo, we thought of reversing them on the CD, but we respected the value of the
material and recorded them in the original LP.
