Has Tops ever been on an album or anything?

Howdy

I've been listening to the 'Goats Head Soup Outtakes - How Do You Hide Your Love' (great listen by the way!)

The song 'Tops' has some great Lead guitar playing on it, lovely Peter Green/Danny Kirwan style whammy bar playing on it - really like the tune.

Theres no vocals tho, is it on anything, or to be found anywhere else with more 'meat on the bones?'

thanks for your help!!

According to Nico Zentgraf, TOPS was recorded during the GHS sessions in Jamaica : Nico's site

So, you can find the definitive TOPS on the TATTOO YOU album.

Nico's site hasn't worked for me for quite some time. It must be blocked from the U.S. or the state of Louisiana.

i remember listening to TOPS as a kid on Tatoo You and thinking...what the f&ck? That isn't a Ron Wood or Keith R solo !! If it's Ron Wood he has definately improved!

then finally found out that MT was the fine player of yet another stinging solo.

great song.

There's no whammy bar on Tops. Just Mick Taylor's vibrato, and there should be no suprise that it was released on Tattoo You smiling smiley

I heard this Outtake from the some girls session called Never Stop. If they ever re worked the lyrics and realeased that they'd have a serious hit on their hands.

<<Nico's site hasn't worked for me for quite some time. It must be blocked from the U.S. or the state of Louisiana.>>

Hmmm, this is the second time we have heard that. The other people experiencing that problem are in California and use At&T. But: Tests carried out have shown that the site is ONLY blocked, if you are behind a router. If you are accessing the internet with a direct connection without a router on your side or via a smartphone, nzentgraf.de worked. Can you please mail me your configuration and the way you connect to the net so we can get more info on this rather special problem. We are especially interested in which provider you use and which router and firmware you use, if you use one. Thanks a lot.

Wireless router, AT&T DSL. I'll find the cord and do a direct connection. Dunno when that'll be though. I'll be sure to check back here.

I can never get on it either. Very frustrating.

JUST FYI - I use TOR routing software as it's designed to cloak your ID/IP in cyberspace (granted, as much as possible). The free download for the router software/browser bundle is here -->

[www.torproject.org]


After zero successful attemps to access Nico's site, I fired up TOR and BOOM, 1st try I was in. It's not hard to use, but if you're not technically inclined you'd be doing yourself a favor finding someone who is.
