Today Is Yesterday is a 2002 compilation album by Roy Harper. Amongst it's 17 tracks are 6 unreleased and 8 rare songs. All the tracks were recorded between 1964 and 1969.
[edit] Miscellanea
Tracks 1 - 9 date from 1964 - 1965 and were recorded on an old mono Ferrograph quarter inch tape machine. These tracks formed a demo tape that landed Harper his first record contract. Track 10 is a re-recording of a part of that demo tape and became the B-side of Harpers first single.
Tracks 11 and 13 became Harpers second single, while track 12 was a single contender which didn't make the cut. Track 14 is the earliest recording on this album. Tracks 15 and 16 were both recorded in 1967. Track 15 became the A-side of Harper's third single, however track 16 was rejected. Track 17 goes back to 1965 - 1966 and is the A-side of Harper's first single. [1]
