Is Nuxx is a remix of Born Slippy?

Or is the "Born Slippy" title a creative decision for the Born Slippy release - (Born Slippy, Born Slippy .NUXX, Born Slippy .TEL EMATIC).

I can hear more similarity between Nuxx and "Telematic", but I don't hear much similarity with Born Slippy "Original" even now we have heard some of the early versions.

First I have to say, I am LOVING the disc of unreleased tracks. While I found the ones on 'Dubno' a bit more surprising... I didn't necessarily listen to them that often. Also, is it just me ... or do portions of "D+B Thing" sound a bit like "You Do Scribble"?

and the NUXX disc... I can kinda see what they wanted to do, but really... but it just put a big spotlight on the fact that they have many shows archived (and ... it kinda begs the question: why are they not selling the full shows digitally online?)

It also got me to go back and listen to my old bootlegs from the '95/'96 era... I do find it a bit surprising that the version of "Born Slippy" where it's the original 'instrumental' with the NUXX lyrics over it wasn't included on this boxset, as it was performed that way (at least once)

Which concert was the original version of Born Slippy with the NUXX lyrics performed on as I would love to hear that as I don't remember ever hearing it!

logistics and copyright issues probably.

agreed, but we have a good recording of it.

Thanks -1 I have the Glasgow gig- I still have the tape I recorded it off Radio1 on all those years ago! Also have the extra track at the end thanks to the tracker! Listening to the nuxx disc and the Glasgow gig I think nuxx has always been a separate track from 'original born slippy' and that they used some elements of nuxx with samples that became born slippy in the Jam version at the end of the Glasgow gig.
For me born slippy sounds like STITI era and nuxx like dubno era with a slight evolution/polish into what we know as born slippy .nuxx. I am still to hear a version of 'original born slippy' with nuxx lyrics. Are there any earlier recordings (bootlegs) around with (or without) nuxx on before Glasgow 94 (not including new STITI nuxx versions)?
I think it's a bit like dirty with guitar, epic, etc versions but they are less similar and I agree with Holden's earlier post that they just put them together on the born slippy release because 'original bs' was the new release but nuxx was going to sell well because of trainspotting.
I think I'm going to refer to nuxx simply as nuxx rather than born slippy .nuxx now and the same with tel ematic!��

That's actually not the show I was talking about, and personally - I wouldn't really count that version of the track to be the 'original instrumental' but with NUXX lyrics

I'm at work now... but when I get home - I'll double check what bootleg I was listening to. I'm almost certain I was listening to a recording from:

1995-08-06 T in the Park, Hamilton, UK

Good point! I stand corrected! It was a long time ago... I was doing my GCSEs back then and was obviously revising too hard!
Is the T in the park bootleg that joethelion mentions available anywhere? I can't see it on the tracker? I would love to hear that!...although as twicezero points out that gig was after the born slippy ep was released so couldn't really be a prototype version! It's all getting confusing now!
