Реально ли достать полный Scouse The Mouse?

То, что выпустили CD-Максимум жутко порезано. В "Домашней коллекции" он в каком виде?

Так, народ дружно проигнорировал тему. Может просто не заметили. Попробую ещё раз.

Дорогой Шаман!
Я не так давно купил Скауз в "дешевой" английской копии - т.е. с фотокопированной обложкой, однако сам си-ди должен быть неотличим от оригинале, если верить нашим спецам.
Если тебе интересно, могу сделать тебе копию и когда приеду в Москву передам тебе ее через допустим Лемона.
Единственное, я не знаю, когда приеду, что-то моя поездка откладывается из месяца в месяц.

А почему бы и нет? Но вот только Лемону придётся его мне пересылать, как он к этому отнесётся? Ну ладно, это мелочи. Привезите , если не сложно. Давно мечтаю полную версию найти!

У меня SCOUSE THE MOUSE есть на бутлеге CHOST RECORDS, 1991 (New Zeland) и пояснение, что эти 8 песен взяты:
from Polydor LP (U.K. Only).
Дед.

LIVING IN A PET SHOP
By Roger Brown


I GOT UP TODAY AND I TOOK A LOOK AROUND,
I WAS LIVING IN A PET SHOP.
LIVING THIS LIFE IS REALLY GETTING ME DOWN,
LIVING IN A PET SHOP.

ALL OF THIS NOISE AND ALL OF THIS CLATTER,
ALL DAY LONG WE JUST CHAT, CHAT, CHATTER.
OH, WHAT A LIFE, WILL IT EVER STOP?
LIVING IN A PET SHOP.

Aum -

I'VE BEEN HERE, IT'S ALL I EVER HAVE KNOWN,
LIVING IN A PET SHOP.
ALL I EVER WANTED WAS A HOME OF MY OWN
BUT I'M LIVING IN A PET SHOP.

YOU MIGHT SAY WE'RE A LITTLE OVERCROWDED, (meow-)
CHOCK-A-BLOC BUNNIES, THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.
OH, WHAT A LIFE, WILL IT EVER STOP?
LIVING IN A PET SHOP.

COME ON, PEOPLE, WON'T SOMEBODY TRY ME?
I'M A NICE FELLOW, WON'T SOMEBODY BUY ME?

Aum -
Aum - (animal scat sing)

I GOT UP TODAY AND I TOOK A LOOK AROUND,
I WAS LIVING IN A PET SHOP.
LIVING THIS LIFE IS REALLY GETTING ME DOWN,
LIVING IN A PET SHOP.

(Meow -)
IF I STAY HERE MY HEART IS GONNA BREAK ME, (meow -)
IF YOU'RE GOING MY WAY, WON'T YOU, PLEASE, TAKE ME?
OH, WHAT A LIFE, WILL IT EVER STOP?
LIVING IN A PET SHOP,
LIVING IN A PET SHOP.

(Oh, what a life will it ever stop - aum-meow-)
(Oh, what a life will it ever stop - aum-meow-)
(Oh, what a life will it ever stop - aum-meow-)
(Oh, what a life will it ever stop - aum-meow-)
(Arf! Arf! Arf!...)


DIALOG:

"I SHALL BE BOUGHT BY SOMEONE RICH AND FAMOUS. I SHALL LIVE IN A GOLDEN CAGE IN A GREAT HOUSE." SAID THE WITH MOUSE TO A BUDGERIGAR. THEY WERE SITTING IN A WINDOW OF A PET SHOP IN LIVERPOOL. THEY SPOKE A LANGUAGE CALLED ANIMO WHICH NO HUMAN BEING CAN UNDERSTAND. ALL THE DOGS AND CATS, BIRDS AND FISH SPOKE ANIMO.
A LITTLE BOY CAME INTO THE SHOP.
"I'M LOOKING FOR A MOUSE." THE BOY BOUGHT THE MOUSE.
THE MOUSE OPENED HIS EYES IN A HOUSE IN LIVERPOOL. HE WAS IN A CAGE. PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT HIM, HE COULDN'T' UNDERSTAND THEM. AT THIS TIME HE COULD SPEAK ONLY ANIMO.
"I MUST LEARN THIS LANGUAGE," THOUGHT THE MOUSE, "IF I'M TO GET ANYWHERE AT ALL."

"HEY, YOU LOT! COME AND GET YOUR SCOUSE!" SHOUTED MOTHER. SCOUSE IS A KIND OF STEW MADE IN LIVERPOOL. "HERE YOU ARE, MOUSE, HAVE A BIT OF SCOUSE, YOU'RE A LIVERPOOL MOUSE SO YOU SHOULD EAT SCOUSE. HEY! THAT'S WHAT I'LL CALL HIM, SCOUSE THE MOUSE!"
THE FATHER SWITCHED ON THE TELEVISION.
"TERRIFIC!"
SCOUSE THE MOUSE HAD DISCOVERED TELEVISION. HE WATCHED EVERYTHING. HE WATCHED THE ROCK GROUPS. SCOUSE'S FAVORITE GROUP WAS CALLED THE JOLLIES. THEY WERE A MUSICAL FAMILY.


SING A SONG FOR THE TRAGOPAN
By Roger Brown and Donald Pleasence


WHEN I SPOKE TO HIM IN CHINA, THE TRAGOPAN SAID,
I DON'T WANNA NIGGLE, BUT I THINK I'LL SOON BE DEAD.
IF THEY CHOP DOWN THE TREES I'LL HAVE NOWHERE TO HIDE,
ALONG WILL COME A HUNTER AND HE'LL TAKE ME BY SURPRISE.

LET'S SING A SONG FOR THE TRAGOPAN,
THE PHEASANT WHO CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT EASE.
DON'T LET THEM CHOP DOWN THE TREES THAT HE'LL NEED,
THE TRAGOPAN CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT LEAVES.

LAST SEEN IN CHINA, THE TRAGOPAN SAID,
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF THEY TOOK AWAY YOUR BED,
CLOSED UP YOUR GARAGE AND PULLED OUT THE PHONE,
TOOK AWAY THE DEEP FREEZE AND LEFT YOU ALL ALONE?

LET'S SING A SONG FOR THE TRAGOPAN,
THE PHEASANT WHO CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT EASE.
DON'T LET THEM CHOP DOWN THE TREES THAT HE'LL NEED,
THE TRAGOPAN CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT LEAVES.

LET'S SING A SONG FOR THE TRAGOPAN,
THE PHEASANT WHO CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT EASE.
DON'T LET THEM CHOP DOWN THE TREES THAT HE'LL NEED,
THE TRAGOPAN CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT LEAVES.

DON'T LET THEM CHOP DOWN THE TREES THAT HE'LL NEED,
THE TRAGOPAN CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT LEAVES.

DON'T LET THEM CHOP DOWN THE TREES THAT HE'LL NEED,
THE TRAGOPAN CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT LEAVES.



DIALOG:

SCOUSE WAS LEARNING ENGLISH. HE WAS LEARNING ENGLISH FROM THE TELEVISION. AT NIGHT, WHEN THE FAMILY HAD GONE TO BED, HE PRETENDED TO BE A SINGER. HE IMAGINED HE WAS WITH THE JOLLY FAMILY ON THE TELEVISION SCREEN. HE WROTE A SONG.
AS HE SANG HIS SONG, HE PRETENDED THE JOLLIES WERE WITH HIM, PLAYING HIS MUSIC.


SCOUSE'S DREAM
By Roger Brown


I SIT AND WATCH WHILE OTHERS SING AND DANCE,
BUT I KNOW SOME DAY I WILL HAVE MY CHANCE.
I'M DOWN TODAY, IT'S TRUE,
MY CHANCES HAVE BEEN FEW,
BUT I'M NOT DISCOURAGED 'CAUSE I KNOW WHAT I CAN DO.

I MAY BE A TINY MOUSE AND IN A CAGE,
BUT I KNOW I BELONG UPON THE STAGE.
AND SOME DAY I WILL BE
A PERSONALITY
AND THEN THE ONE I'M WATCHING ON THE TV WILL BE ME.

NOW PEOPLE TEND TO TREAT A MOUSE
WITH SIMPLE CONVERSATIONS,
BUT I AM LIKE NO MOUSE YOU'VE EVER SEEN.
SO IF YOU THINK OF ME THAT WAY,
THEN MAYBE I SHOULD MENTION,
I'M SCOUSE THE MOUSE AND I HAVE GOT A DREAM.

OOH!

SO LOOK OUT, WORLD, 'CAUSE HERE I COME,
IF YOU WANT SOMEONE SPECIAL, I'M THE ONE.
ALTHOUGH I MAY BE SMALL,
IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL,
'CAUSE I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT SOME DAY I'LL BE TEN FEET TALL.

DIALOG:

NOBODY HEARD THIS MOUSE SINGING IN THE NIGHT AS HE DREAMED OF THE FAMOUS LIFE ON THE TELEVISION.

CHRISTMAS CAME.

ON CHRISTMAS MORNING THE BOY RAN IN, CHEWING A MINTS PIE.
"HERE YOU ARE, MISTER SCOUSE, IT'S A CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR YOU." IT WAS A TINY ROPE LADDER.
"SEE IF YOU CAN RUN UP THAT!" THE BOY TURNED HIS BACK. THE BOY HAD LEFT THE DOOR OPEN!
SCOUSE SEES THE ROPE LADDER AND SWUNG LIKE TARZAN OUT INTO SPACE.
"HEY! COME BACK!"
THERE WAS A TINY HOLE IN THE WALL, SCOUSE DISAPPEARED. THROUGH THE MOUSEHOLE HE COULD SEE HIS BELOVED TELLY. HE FELT SOMETHING, LOOKED, A BROWN MOUSE WAS STARING AT HIM.
"HELLO, WHITIE!" SAID THE BROWN MOUSE. IN ANIMO, OF COURSE.
"WHAT? WHO'S THAT? WHO ARE YOU?"
"I'M A MOUSE. I LIVE HERE. I WAS WATCHING YOU DOING ALL THOSE FUNNY NOISES."
"THAT'S SPEAKING! THAT'S ENGLISH! I LEARNT IT FROM THE TELLY. I COULD TEACH YOU ENGLISH. OH, SORRY, I FORGOT, I LEAVE TONIGHT."
"WHERE YOU GOING?"
"INTO THE WORLD! THE WORLD NEEDS ME! WHY DON'T YOU JOIN ME, WE COULD BE A GROUP?"
"I'LL THINK ABOUT IT."
"WHAT'S YOUR NAME?"
"BONCE, BECAUSE I'VE GOT A BIG HEAD. MY FATHER CALLED ME THAT. HE WAS A LONDON MOUSE."

ALL THAT DAY, SCOUSE AND BONCE WATCHED THROUGH THEIR PEEPHOLE , PEOPLE LAUGHED AND CHILDREN PLAYED. THE SMELL OF THE CHRISTMAS DINNER. THE MICE WERE VERY HUNGRY.
THE JOLLIES WERE ON THE TELEVISION, BONCE AND SCOUSE WATCHED.

AND THE RICH CHRISTMAS CHILL.

DING-A-LING, DING-A-LING-A-LING...


DIALOG:

"LOOK! LOOK! THE JOLLIES' ON TV! THERE'S MOLLY JOLLY AND THERE'S HOLLY JOLLY AND THE ELECTRIC GUITAR, AND MISTER WALLY JOLLY STANDING ON HIS HEAD AND PLAYING THE TROMBONE AT THE SAME TIME!"
"WHO'S THE GIRL?"

SNOW UP YOUR NOSE, WIND ON YOUR FACE,
SNOW UP YOUR NOSE ON THE WHOLE HUMAN RACE.


DIALOG:

MIDNIGHT, THE FAMILY WENT TO BED.

"I'M OUT! COME ON, BONCE, FOOD!"
THEY ATE CHRISTMAS CAKE, MINTS PIES, CHEESE.
"CAN'T WE PULL ONE?"
"A CRACKER?"
"WELL, THEY'RE ALL ASLEEP, LISTEN!"
THE TWO MICE PULLED, THE CRACKER PARTED WITH A BANG. THERE WAS SILENCE ABOVE THEM, QUIET AS CHOCOLATE MICE. THE MICE LISTENED.
"LET'S SEE WHAT'S INSIDE."
"LITTLE BAG!"
"BRITISH AIRWAYS! JUST THE THING FOR OUR SURVIVAL KIT."
HE FILLED THE TOY BAG WITH CHEESE AND CAKE AND JUMPED TO THE FLOOR.
"WE'RE AWAY!"
BONCE NOSED HIS WAY THROUGH THE FRONT DOOR LIKE AN ELECTRIC DRILL.
"AFTER YOU, SCOUSE."
SCOUSE PUT HIS NOSE INTO THE OUTSIDE WORLD.
"OH, OH, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S COLD OUT THERE! AND THERE'S WHITE STUFF, SNOW, I THINK."
"OH, SCOUSE, I THINK I'LL STAY HOME."
"YOU CALL THIS HOME? LISTEN, YOU CAN ALWAYS JOIN ME. WATCH THE TELLY, I'LL BE THERE."
"HOW?"
"I'LL BE FAMOUS! FAMOUS PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS ON THE TELLY."
"WELL, GOOD LUCK THEN. BYE."
"EH...RIGHT!"
HE WENT. SCOUSE THE MOUSE WAS FREE.





RUNNING FREE

DIALOG:

RUN, RUN, RUN DOWN THE ROAD. WHERE ARE YOU GOING, MOUSE, IN THE COLD, IN THE FREEZING SNOW? ANYWHERE TO BE AWAY FROM THE CAGE, ANYWHERE THAT WILL TAKE ME TO LIFE, TO ADVENTURE. WHAT'S THAT IN FRONT OF YOU? A SHIP!
"A SHIP! LOOK AT... LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE! WHAT'S THAT WRITING ON THE SIDE?
THE QUEEN EL... THE Q.E.2!"
SCOUSE THE MOUSE LEAPT ONTO THE SHIP. SAILORS WERE PULLING IN THE GANG-PLANK.
"NEXT STOP, NEW YORK!"
"AMERICA! A MOUSE'S DREAM!"
SCOUSE SEEMED TO HEAR THE VOICE OF HIS NEW COCKNEY MOUSE FRIEND, BONCE, SINGING TO HIM, IN ANIMO.




AMERICA (A MOUSE'S DREAM)
By Roger Brown


IF YOU'RE GONNA BE FAMOUS,
I KNOW JUST WHERE YOU SHOULD BE.
STEPPIN' OUT ON A STAGE SOMEWHERE
IN THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY.

AND IF YOU'RE GONNA BE BIG TIME,
BIGGER THAN ANY MOUSE SHORT SIZE.
YOU OUGHT TO BE IN AMERICA
AND I AM GONNA TELL YOU WHY.

IN AMERICA YOU CAN STEAL THE HEARTS,
SEE SIGHTS THAT'S YET UNSEEN.
THEY'LL MAKE YOU FAMOUS OVERNIGHT
IN AMERICA, A MOUSE'S DREAM.

ME FATHER LEARNED A LOT IN LONDON,
AND ONE DAY HE TOLD ME, "SON,
IF YOU WANNA KNOW WHERE THE STARS ARE BORN,
WELL, I, I CAN TELL YOU WHERE IT'S DONE."

NOW I'M SIMPLY ORDINARY,
SO I MAY BE WHERE I MAY BE.
BUT THERE'S JUST ONE PLACE IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
I KNOW FOR A MOUSE LIKE YOU TO BE.

AND THAT'S AMERICA WHERE YOU WILL FIND
THE GRASS OF GREENER GREEN.
THE FINE YOU'LL FIND IS SUPER FINE
IN AMERICA, A MOUSE'S DREAM.

JUST IMAGINE NEW YORK CITY,
JUST IMAGINE OLD BROADWAY.
DON'T YOU WISH THAT YOU WERE THERE RIGHT NOW?
DON'T YOU WISH THAT YOU WERE ON YOUR WAY?

TO AMERICA WHERE THE STREETS ARE OF GOLD,
ALTHOUGH I'VE NEVER BEEN
I'M SURE IT'S TRUE, 'CAUSE I'VE BEEN TOLD,
AMERICA'S A MOUSE'S DREAM.


DIALOG:

A WAITER IN A WHITE JACKET CAME HURTLING TOWARDS HIM, HE WAS ABOUT TO THREAD ON SCOUSE WHEN SCOUSE NOTICED THAT THE DOOR BESIDE HIM WAS SLIGHTLY OPEN. HE DODGED INSIDE AND STOOD STILL IN THE ROOM FOR A MOMENT.

"THAT WAS A NARROW SQUEAK!"
IN A LARGE BED, COVERED BY A SILK QUILT, PROPPED UP AGAINST SATIN PILLOWS, SURROUNDED BY CRAYONS AND PIECES OF PAPER, DOLLS, STUFFED ANIMALS, SAT A SMALL GIRL.
"OH, GOOD! YOU CAN TALK!"
"DOESN'T IT SURPRISE YOU?"
"NO, ALL THE ANIMALS IN MY DREAMS SPEAK."
"I'M NOT A DREAM, I'M SCOUSE THE MOUSE. I'M GOING TO BE FAMOUS! I CAN TALK, I CAN SING, I LEARNT IT FROM THE TELLY."
"YOU'RE A DREAM! YOU'RE A DREAM! YOU'RE A DREAM!"



SCOUSEY
By Roger Brown


SCOUSEY, YOU'RE LIKE A DREAM TO ME,
BUT WHO KNOWS IF YOU SHOULD TURN OUT TO BE
AS REAL AS REAL CAN BE.

SCOUSEY, YOUR NOSE, YOUR LAUGHING EYES,
YOUR CHARMING LITTLE SMILE, OH, IT'S NO SURPRISE,
I LOVED YOU AT FIRST SIGHT.

NOW I BELIEVE, I NEVER SEEN A MOUSE
MORE LOVELY THAN YOU.
AND EVEN IF I DO, HE'LL REMINDS ME OF YOU.

SCOUSEY, I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER WHEN
I MET YOU, IT SEEMS LIKE I KNEW THEN
THAT YOU WERE GOING TO BE MY FRIEND.

NOW I BELIEVE, I NEVER SEEN A MOUSE
MORE LOVELY THAN YOU.
AND EVEN IF I DO, HE'LL REMINDS ME OF YOU.

DIALOG:

"WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE MY CHRISTMAS PRESENTS? LOOK, THESE DOLLS HAVE ALL KINDS OF CHANGES OF CLOTHES AND THEY'RE NOT MUCH BIGGER THAN YOU. HEY! IF YOU CAN SING SONGS YOU MIGHT AS WELL HAVE SOME CLOTHES."
"WELL, I ...ER... WOULDN'T MIND TRYING SOMETHING ON. YOU KNOW, NO OBLIGATION TO BUY."
"TAKE YOUR CHOICE."
"EH...OH...ER...WELL, I, I RATHER LIKE THIS YELLOW BLAZER AND...AND...AND THESE TROUSERS, THESE, THESE TROUSERS ARE RATHER NICE, OH, I'LL JUST SLIP THEM ON THEN."

"THAT'S THE..."
"THE JOLLIES!"
"BUT YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND, I KNOW THE JOLLIES!"
"EV'RYONE KNOWS THE JOLLIES!"
THE DOOR TO THE CABIN OPENED AND ONE BY ONE THE JOLLIES CAME INTO THE ROOM.
HOLLY SMILED AT HER FAMILY. "MAY I PRESENT MISTER SCOUSE! SING, SCOUSE!
"OH, OKAY THEN, HERE IT GOES."



BOAT RIDE
By Roger Brown


THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A FLOAT ON A BOAT RIDE.

"HA! HA! HA! HA! THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS! WHERE'S MY FLUTE?"


WIND IS BLOWING ON THE WATER SO BLUE,
THE SEAGULLS ARE CALLING AND THE SUN SHINES THROUGH.
THERE IS NOTHING I WOULD RATHER DO
THAN TO GO ON A BOAT RIDE.

I WANT TO SAIL AWAY TO FAR AWAY LANDS
WHERE THE SUN SHINES DOWN ON GOLDEN SANDS.
OH MY, BUT ISN'T IT GRAND TO GO ON A BOAT RIDE?

THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A FLOAT ON A BOAT RIDE.

OH, I HOPE FOR A LIFE ON THE OCEAN WAVES,
EVEN IF I HAVE TO STOLE AWAY.
I KNOW WHAT I WILL DO TODAY,
I WILL GO ON A BOAT RIDE. (toot! toot!)

THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
(Nothing like a boat ride)
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A BOAT RIDE,
(Nothing like a boat ride)
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A FLOAT ON A BOAT RIDE.

THE NEXT MORNING, THE JOLLIES TOOK SCOUSE FOR A WALK.
"OH, ISN'T HE CUTE? I JUST LOVE THE CLAWS!"
"THANK YOU, MAM."

"A MOUSE LIKE ME BELONGS TO THE WORLD!"


THE CAPTAIN OF THE Q.E.2.:
"SPLICE ME WHISKERS! A TALKING MOUSE!"
"HE SINGS TOO, CAPTAIN."
"AMAZING! WHY DON'T WE ASK SCOUSE TO DO A NUMBER AT THE SHIP'S CONCERT?"
"IS THAT YOUR CAT, CAPTAIN?"
"THAT'S THE SHIP'S CAT. HIS NAME IS GEOFFREY."
"I KNOW, WE'VE BEEN TALKING."
"TALKING?"
"IN ANIMO, EH.. ANIMAL LANGUAGE. I'D LIKE TO ASK HIM TO THIS CONCERT."
"YES."

THE SHIP'S CONCERT AND THE JOLLIES I FULL SWING.

POLLY JOLLY:

I KNOW A PLACE
By Roger Brown, Ruan O'Lochlainn and Donald Pleasence


I KNOW A PLACE THAT'S WILD BUT SAFE,
WHERE OAK TREES GROW WITH PINE.
WHERE THE BIG BAD WOLF MEETS RED RIDING HOOD
AND THEY LAUGH AND GET ALONG JUST FINE.

AND WHEN I THINK OF YOU AND THINK OF ME,
I WONDER WHO'S YOU A WHICH IS ME.
WHEN THE CLOCK STRIKES TWELVE,
WILL IT BE SAFE FOR ME?

I KNOW A PLACE IN THE US OF A,
WHERE THE STATUE OF LIBERTY STANDS TALL.
WHERE A FAT PUSSY CAT AND A LITTLE WHITE MOUSE
WALTZ HAPPY AT A BALL.

AND WHEN I THINK OF YOU AND THINK OF ME,
I WONDER WHO'S YOU A WHICH IS ME.
WILL THE FAT PUSSY CAT EAT THIS LITTLE WHITE MOUSE FOR TEA?


DIALOG:

SCOUSE SINGS IN ANIMO TO HIS FRIEND, GEOFFREY THE CAT

DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS,
DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS,
DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS,
DON'T EAT ME, LET'S BE FRIENDS.


DIALOG:

"THANK YOU, THANK YOU. HERE'S A SONG YOU MAY HAVE HEARD BEFORE, "SNOW UP YOUR NOSE FOR CHRISTMAS". HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYBODY!"

SNOW UP YOUR NOSE FOR CHRISTMAS...


DIALOG:

SCOUSE LEFT THE STAGE AND JOINED GEOFFREY THE CAT AT HIS TABLE.
"I CAN SEE WHAT YOU MEAN."
"I HOPE YOU WOULD."
"LOOK HERE, WE'VE GOT A LITTLE PLACE, WE CALL IT 'THE DISCATEQUE'. HOW ABOUT A DRINK AND A DANCE AND SOME CONVERSATION?"
"WHY NOT?"
"I WILL COME SCRATCHING ON YOUR CABIN DOOR."

SOON AFTER MIDNIGHT, SCOUSE HEARD A GENTLE SCRATCH AND FAINT MEOW. GEOFFREY WAS WAITING OUTSIDE.
"WHAT'S THAT YOU'VE GOT THERE?"
"BRITISH AIRWAYS BAG. A FEW PRESENTS FOR THE CATS."
"COME ON!"
"WHERE ARE WE GOING?"
"YOU'LL SEE."
ALONG THE MAIN CORRIDOR AND DOWN THREE FLIGHTS OF STEPS, TO A LITTLE TRAP DOOR WHICH SWUNG IN EACH DIRECTION. A LITTLE DOOR MARKED 'DANGER! INSPECTION TRAP!'.
"THROUGH HERE."
SCOUSE FELT HIMSELF FALLING THROUGH SPACE. HE LANDED WITH A BUMP.
"YOU, YOU MIGHT HAD KILLED ME!"
"SUPPOSE SO. KNOW WHERE WE ARE?"
"NO?"
"INSPECTION SHAFT. WE'RE ABOVE THE OCEAN HERE."
"IT'S COLD AND DAMP! IS, IS THIS THE DISCATEQUE?"
"YES, IT'S A GOOD FLOOR FOR DANCING."
"WHERE, WHERE ARE THE CATS?"
MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!... (cat noises)
"LET'S HAVE SOME LIGHT! THERE'S A MOON! HEAVE-HO! MY HEARTY!"
A SMALL POT HOLE WAS OPENED. SCOUSE COULD SMELL THE SEA.
"WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A DANCE NOW AND AFTER THAT WE'LL SENTENCE YOU!"
"OH, WHAT FOR?"
"PRETENDING TO BE A HUMAN BEING. ENGAGE, CHAPS! THE DANCE IS ON."
"THERE'S NO MUSIC?"
"WE MAKE THE MUSIC. EVER HEARD OF A CATERWAUL?"


CATERWAUL (instrumental)
By Jim Parker

DIALOG:

"YOU ARE SENTENCED TO DEATH BY WATER. YOU ARE TO BE GIVEN THE ORDER OF THE PAW. PAWS, ALL READY! FIRE!"
TWELVE PAWS LIFTED SCOUSE FROM THE FLOOR. HE FLEW OUT THE PORTHOLE LIKE A WELL KICKED FOOTBALL.
SITTING ON HIS BRITISH AIRWAYS BAG, HE RODE THE WAVES LIKE A ROLLER-COASTER.
"OH, OH, I'LL DROWN! I COULD TRY S.O.S. I SUPPOSE."


S.O.S.
By Roger Brown


NIGHT IS FALLEN AND THE COLD WIND MOANS,
I HAVE NEVER FELT SO FAR FROM HOME,
I AM CAST AWAY AND LEFT ALONE.

THE STARS ABOVE ME SEEM SO FAR AWAY,
IF THERE IS MORNING, WILL I SEE THE DAY?
WON'T SOMEONE COME AND CARRY ME AWAY?

S.O.S., S.O.S.,
S.O.S., S.O.S.


DIALOG:

A SEAGULL MADE A PERFECT LANDING BESIDE HIM.
"AH, YOU'VE GOT A PROBLEM?"
HE SPOKE ANIMO WITH A BROOKLYN ACCENT.
"I'VE JUST GOT PAWED OFF THE SHIP!"
"I KNOW, I'VE SEEN IT. YOU CAME OUT OF THERE LIKE A BULLET!
I'M LOUEY, THE GULL. I RUN THIS TOWN! LET'S GET YOU BACK ON THE SHIP."
"YOU REALLY CAN? MY GROUP'S THERE, YOU SEE."
"GROUP? A BLOODGROUP? ARE YOU WOUNDED OR SOMETHING?"
"NO, I'M AN INTERNATIONAL STAR."
"YOU LOOK LIKE A MOUSE TO ME."
LOUEY TOOK THE STRAPS OF THE BRITISH AIRWAYS BAG IN HIS BEAK A LIFTED OFF LIKE A JUMBO.



ASK LOUEY

By Roger Brown


LOUEY, I'M LOUEY, FLYING MY OWN PRIVATE JET.
LIKE I'VE GOT WINGS THAT BRINGS ME
IN TOUCH WITH THE FANCY JET SET.

I'M LOUEY, BIG LOUEY,
IF YOU THINK THAT I'M NOT THE BIG BOSS,
THEN LOUEY, BIG LOUEY,
WILL EXPLAIN YOU'RE ON THE WRONG COURSE.

IF YOU'RE IN TROUBLE AND IN NEED IN HELP,
YOU DON'T NEED TO CALL NO ONE ELSE.
IF YOU PLAN TO
ASK LOUEY, LOUEY, BUT NOWHERE TO FIND WHERE IT'S AT.
ASK LOUEY, BIG LOUEY,
'CAUSE IF YOU DON'T YOU'LL NEVER GET FAT.

DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE,
DON'T ROUSE MY IRE, CAN YA DIG?
I'M MISTER BIG, I'M MISTER BIG.

I'M LOUEY, BIG LOUEY,
I'LL TELL YOU WHERE THE PICKERS HAVE HID.
JUST LOUEY, BIG LOUEY,
THE GREATEST SINCE THE SUNNY DANCE KID.

I'M LOUEY, BIG LOUEY,
I KNOW THAT YOU THINK I'M A REAL GULL.
BUT I'M BETTER, MUCH BETTER,
THE TRUTH IS I'M LOUEY, THE SEAGULL.

DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE,
DON'T ROUSE MY IRE, YOU DIG?
I'M MISTER BIG.

I'M MISTER BIG, I'M THE BIG ONE.
YOU'VE GOTTA TALK TO ME.
THIS IS MY PLACE!
YOU'RE TALKING TO THE BIG ONE.
I'M THE BIG ONE.
OH, OH, OH, OH...


DIALOG:

THE PASSENGERS CROWDED THE DECKS. THEY LOOKED AT NEW YORK, THE STATUE OF LIBERTY, THE WINTER SUN ON THE HUDSON RIVER.
LOUEY LANDED DELICATELY.
"LOOK OUT, FOLKS! HERE'S SCOUSEY!"
"SCOUSEY! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?"
"EARLY MORNING DIP. THE WATER'S NOT TOO BAD.
NEW YORK! LOOK AT IT! DIRTY AND BIG AND BEAUTIFUL AND IT'S ALL MINE!"



A MOUSE LIKE ME
By Ruan O'Lochlainn


NOW YOU CAN COUNT ON ME,
I'LL BE THERE YOU SEE,
ON THE STAGE OF THE CARNEGIE HALL.
WHEN THE HOUSE LIGHTS GO DOWN,
THAT'S WHEN I'LL COME ON,
'CAUSE I'M A MOUSE AND I'M REALLY QUITE SMALL.

'CAUSE A MOUSE LIKE ME BELONGS TO THE WORLD,
AND THE WORLD IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE.
AND A MOUSE LIKE ME JUST SINGS FOR THE WORLD
THAT GOES ROUND AND ROUND FOR FREE.

YOU CAN COUNT ON ME,
I'LL BE THERE YOU'LL SEE,
I'LL BE THERE WHEN YOU NEED A FRIEND.
WHEN YOU'RE FEELING DOWN,
THAT'S WHEN I'LL BE YOUR CLOWN,
AND WE'LL SING OUR SONGS TO THE END.

'CAUSE A MOUSE LIKE ME BELONGS TO THE WORLD,
AND THE WORLD IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE.
AND A MOUSE LIKE ME JUST SINGS FOR THE WORLD
THAT GOES ROUND AND ROUND FOR FREE.

A MOUSE LIKE ME BELONGS TO THE WORLD,
AND THE WORLD IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE.
AND A MOUSE LIKE ME JUST SINGS FOR THE WORLD
THAT GOES ROUND AND ROUND FOR FREE.

A MOUSE LIKE ME BELONGS TO THE WORLD,
AND THE WORLD IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE.
AND A MOUSE LIKE ME JUST SINGS FOR THE WORLD
THAT GOES ROUND AND ROUND FOR FREE.

A MOUSE LIKE ME BELONGS TO THE WORLD,
AND THE WORLD IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE.
AND A MOUSE LIKE ME JUST SINGS FOR THE WORLD
THAT GOES ROUND AND ROUND FOR FREE.




THE END

В декабре 1977 году вышел второй диск Ринго Старра за год. Это была пластинка со сказкой «Scouse The Mouse», на которой прозвучал голос Ринго и других исполнителей. «Scouse» - это диалект английского языка, на котором разговаривают в Ливерпуле, а еще это термин, обозначающий выходцев из этого региона.

Старр предстал в роли главного персонажа – мышонка по имени Скаус, который эмигрировал в Соединенные Штаты из Ливерпуля. Других персонажей озвучили Адам Фейт и Барбара Диксон. Сама сказка была написана Дональдом Плезенсом, а музыкальные темы были придуманы Роджером Брауном.

Песни, на которых звучит вокал Ринго («I Know a Place», «S.O.S.», «A Mouse Like Me», «Living in a Pet Shop», «Scouse's Dream», «Running Free», «Boat Ride» и заглавная «Scouse the Mouse») были записаны в июле 1977 года в студии Berwick Street. Продюсером записи выступил Хью Мерфи.

Параллельно с диском планировалось выпустить и мультфильм, однако проект сначала был отложен из за забастовки сотрудников телеканала ITV, а потом и вовсе отменен. Альбом «Scouse The Mouse» вышел 9 декабря на лейбле Polydor только в Великобритании. Эта пластинка стала последний в рамках контракта, заключенного с этим лейблом. Поскольку тираж диска был небольшим и коммерческого успеха он не получил, «Scouse The Mouse» сейчас является филофонической редкостью.

В своем следующем альбоме «Bad Boy» Ринго Старр переработал песню «A Mouse Like Me», превратив ее в трек «A Man Like Me».

Лет эдак 10 назад в самом начале моего знакомства с eBay этот милый альбом был куплен в минте за смешные $80.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - Scouse the Mouse (1977)

Детский альбом про мыша по имени Скауз. Ринго, как исполнитель главной роли, поет на большинстве номеров. Остальных персонажей исполняет Барбара Диксон, Адам Фэйт, Рик Джонс и др. Приятная, милая пластинка. Понятно, что музыка для детей, но некоторые песни реально хороши. "Living in a Pet Shop", "Running Free", "S.O.S.", "A Mouse Like Me" - теплый, лирический, немного наивный поп/поп-рок; заглавная вещь имеет джазовые оттенки, а качающая "Ask Louey" - прям настоящий фанк. Здорово!

Обязательный экземпляр для каждого любителя Битлз. Жаль только, что официально на CD все это до сих пор не издавалось. Но тут на помощь приходят пираты.

>A Mouse Like Me

Это аналог песни Ринго A Man like me с альбома Bad Boy.


Когда-то давно гуляло мп3 с песнями из этого альбома... А винил хорош, на Полидоре, со вкладкой-раскраской.
Интересно, почему про него вспомнили?

Вспомнили, так как диск был переиздан у нас в России на CD в сентябре 2021 года. Весьма советую пополнить коллекцию этим раритетом 😃

Хороший альбом, одни детские хиты:)

У Ринго явно для Мыша голос низковат, ну да ладно = )
зато песни интересные = )
