here is unofficial myspace http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=108 691747

i was always under the impression that certain promo versions of the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack were released with the original Wylde Ratttz vocals. But ive never been able to find that version.... can any one verify this?#$@

yes the advance promo cd-r's had mark arm singing,and the actual released version has ewan singing

That movie sucks so bad.

I didnt know that. That sucks. I never actually got the soundtrack. It's been on my "if-I-ever-see-it-used-for-cheap-I'll-grab-it" list for yeaaaaars.

here is their song 'tv eye' : http://www.mediafire.com/?fdeixdjqwta

Wylde Ratttz used to have a website back in like 2000, and it had about 10 or so mp3's that I downloaded back then. I still have the CD-R somewhere, though I don't know song titles, etc anymore. Anyone else remember, download? I dont know if the downloadable album had a name or cover art or anything?

this is the tracklist?

1. Hot Shot
2. She's Like Poison
3. Lsd
4. Judys' Blues
5. Smoke
6. Rosalyn
7. Hollow

(she's like poison and some, are really good)

I'm not positive. But I do remember "LSD" being one of them. So probably.

where the MP3's on their website the Mark Arm versions?

I was hoping this was actually about rats.

Never heard of this band.

WYLDE RATTTZ



Ron Asheton, Mike Watt, Thurston Moore, Steve Shelley, Don Fleming
and Mark Arm got together in 1997 to record a couple Stooges songs and two originals. Jim Dunbar played the recordings for the producers of Velvet Goldmine who decided to use a couple of the songs in the movie. The Wylde Ratttz re-recorded TV Eye and My Unclean without vocals so that Ewan McGregor could do the vocals in the film

The Wylde Ratttz recorded the following tracks on this session:

I Wanna Be Your Dog / TV Eye / Little Doll / Fun House / Real Cool Time / Gimme Danger / Hollow Around You / My Unclean

Hollow Around You and My Unclean were written by Ron Asheton and Mark Arm. The rest of the songs are Stooges covers.

the VELVET GOLDMINE Soundtrack includes TV Eye.
My Unclean is in the film but not on the soundtrack.

Mark told me:
"They used instrumental versions of TV Eye and My Unclean in the movie so Ewan McGregor could add his exceptional vocal stylings. As far as I know, Gimme Danger was never completed, Ron refused to have anything to do with that song since it was from Raw Power and he was shut out of the songwriting process for that album."

Mark Told me also:
"LSD and Rosalyn are Pretty Things covers but I don't know who wrote or sang the other songs since I wasn't able to go to New York for second recording session ( Mudhoney was either on tour or in the studio, I don't remember exactly which). I wish that I could have though"

The Tracks from 2nd session:

So there's yr answer. The WR site is gone apparently, but those 7 songs are considered (an untitled?) unreleased album... you can see a small album cover at the bottom of my post.

yeah, thanks noise for this!

I'm awesome.

"Velvet Goldmine" was the biggest gayfest ever (before "Mamma Mia" took that gold plated dildo prize off it), and really was much fun. "Iggy" as a flaming homosexual, though? No way!
