Tracks 1-6 are ripped from the original

vinyl and processed from there.

Tracks 7-20 are rough mixes, raw session tapes.

Occasional studio chatter can be heard between

tracks.

Track 9 is an alternate mix, notable for its

lack of backing vocals.

Track 13 is heard here from a tape playback,

rather than the more common acetate source.

It seems to have been truncated on purpose;

the noise at the end is a reel-to-reel tape

coming to a halt.  Had the acetate not been

found, nothing more would have remained of

this song.

Track 20 is a rough mix; no alternate version

has ever surfaced.
