Spacemen 3 - The Perfect Prescription download mp3 flac

Anybody else thinks this pressing sounds too low and kinda muffled? Fairly underwhelmed by this version, sadly.

If you have this copy, I'm interested in purchase at a sensible price. PM me.

This is actually an issue of the outtakes and retakes and demos from the same session as the studio album of same name, and is in fact a bit different from the studio versions, though nothing on the record tells you this. Still gonna be collected by fans looking to have everything, but just a heads up...

I ended up buying the 2013 Fire release, not this 2009 Fire release, so I don't know. The 2013 release is -- for all intents and purposes -- identical to the original, and it has the same track listings and timings as the 2009 release (as well as the original release). Fire did release an expanded edition with two bonus tracks for the CD format, but the original 9 songs should have been the same.

I haven't heard forged prescriptions, so i'm not sure. l

Wow I am really intrigued by this, is it like forged prescriptions then ? or completely different

Thanks. I'm still going to pick it up, but it's good to know it's not the originally released music.

Hi,I know because I've heard this music many times and have CDs and MP3s to judge it against. I bought it because I didn't have this record on vinyl and so I immediately noticed that it was different. The times are not the same on every track as they used to be (though I'm not sure discogs represents this). Look at the review below mine and you'll see "...many of the songs gathered here actually sounding more full and un-compromised than those originally released"...If you're looking to buy the original album, this isn't it.

How do you know it's outtakes? There's nothing to indicate (on this page) that these are not the songs on the original album, the tracklisting and times are the same as the original release. I'm asking because I'm interested in buying.

Perfect Prescription is the album that introduced me to Spacemen 3, and was one of the very last pieces of vinyl I ever bought. Anything I had come to perceive as psychedelic music quickly shifted gears, and took a backseat to that release, leaving me thinking that finally, some twenty years after the vivid psychedelic splendors of the 1960’s fell under its own weight, here, the hypnotic drifting lo-fi swirling drones, and lyrical presentations have finally caught up with the concept ... and amazingly so. There was nothing complicated about Perfect Prescription with its thick, rich, lush interweaving sounds and textures ... but that’s how the really splendid things are, simply elegant. Perfect Prescription danced liquid images across my half closed eyes as I lay wrapped in the darkness, music totally engulfing me. These were the dynamics that would carry Spacemen, Spiritualized, The Darkside, and Spectrum into the future, to distant galaxies, and sadly into serious drug addition. After all, this is music designed to get high to, and to that end, if you are not one predisposed to drifting off into the nether regions of your mind, then this may just not be the perfect album for your ears ... though if you do have a penchant for cutting the cord from time to time, and find yourself floating among the stars, then Perfect Prescription is just what the Night Nurse ordered.So ... while I thought that Perfect Prescription would never be topped, in my semi-tranced state, I could hardly imagine that there would be so much blissed material remaining on the cutting room floor from those heady sessions, with many of the songs gathered here actually sounding more full and un-compromised than those originally released ... or perhaps I needed the space between then and now to appreciate the differences, to wash myself in these deeper darker waters, diving for the bottom and coming up breathless ... a headful of wishes, and a handful of forged prescriptions.Review by Jenell Kesler
