Everything about Present Tense totally explained
Present Tense is the first
Sagittarius album, released in 1968 by
Columbia Records. Though the record was basically a
Gary Usher solo project, he enlisted many top
LA session musicians, and heavily utilized
Curt Boettcher as a songwriter, musician, vocalist, and producer (even going so far as to include two tracks that
Boettcher had produced on his own as the leader of the group
The Ballroom). The album also contains the recording "My World Fell Down", which had no
Boettcher involvement, albeit the LP version was edited, with the
musique concrete bridge from the single version being excised (though a few extra bars of music were added in between the first and second verses). Most people feel that the LP version of "My World Fell Down" is decidedly inferior to the single version. The single "Hotel Indiscreet" also had a similar fate when it reached the LP.
The album was reissued on
CD by
Sundazed Records in 1997 with 9 bonus tracks. Two of these are the original single versions of "My World Fell Down" and "Hotel Indiscreet", as well as another track from
The Ballroom, a
Sandy Salisbury song, and the instrumental track for a song that was recorded by
Chad & Jeremy. The track listing given below reflects the original LP.
