The music archive recently grew by 12 tracks, as I've been able to track down 2 lost recordings, and 4 other songs that had been lost to damaged tapes and other maladies. New for your listening pleasure in the stores to your right are the following tracks:
Bob Spelled Backwards:
Alexander's Mediocre Day
You Won't Have Time to Laugh When the World Explodes
It Was the Dog
Bob Won't Let me Do Anything
Great Awakening's missing FINAL studio recording including REWORKED versions of:
Hey Brother
The Girl I Love is Dead (Suzy)
and studio versions of two favorites featuring Jodie Manross:
Untitled
My Children
And that's not all! Also included are lost 3-five-7 four track demos:
Fall Down
Boo Radley
Stormy Weather (feat. Jim Loggins)
Wounded Hand
And a rare live recording of
Monster N
I couldn't figure out how to re-order the songs in the stores so that the new additions would be at the top of the list, so to make them easy to find, I've made their price $.99 instead of the usual $1.
Sound Quality
The Bob songs have sound quality typical of Bob songs. The other Bob songs available were 2nd generation copies of the source tapes that were digitized with a "hot" input to boost their volume. The new ones are 3rd generation copies digitized through unknown means. They are somewhat quieter than the previously posted ones.
The Great Awakening songs are all of Superior recording quality than all previously posted songs, but were from 3rd to 4th generation tape copies and have digitization differences the same as mentioned above.
The 3-five-7 songs, with the exception of Monster N, were recorded prior to the Blizzard recording, using a basic 4-track. Their recording quality is noticeably lower than the Blizzard recordings. These were sourced from an unknown generation cassette, with the same digitization differences, so their volume is also noticeably fainter. Monster N is here in it's only recorded form, from a live performance at The Klondike in Boone, circa '96 or '97. The mix is substandard, with the vocals greatly overpowering the instruments, but I felt compelled to post it anyway.
NOTE: Thanks to Kara for having these recordings socked away for all these years!
