Musical ones, anyone?
Because I’ve got one.
My 10th grade lit teacher was doing Poe one week, so he brought in the Alan Parsons Project’s debut album, natch, Tales of Mystery and Imagination (note I quickly went out and bought the album myself, and must have played it half to death for a couple of years after). I very clearly recall, even to this day, the opening instrumental track, “A Dream Within a Dream”, a pretty uptempo number with a synth line which I can still recall even now:
Daadaadaadaa, daaaa daaaa daaaa; daadaadaadaa, daaaa daaaa daaaa…
Welp when the 80’s came I got into different musical artists, and sold all of my LP’s when CD’s 1st became common, and pretty much forgot all about ol’ Alan Parsons…
When YT became big, I decided to revisit the album one day, loaded her up, waited for Orson Welles to shut up…and discovered to my utter shock a completely different instrumental-much more languid and downtempo, that synth line completely missing. Played the entire album straight through, never heard the cut I heard.
I then listened to their next album, I Robot, thinking I had conflated a cut off of that, but, nope. No luck with their other albums, either. It’s like that cut never existed.
