Hard to imagine a regional label would have access to an 8 track in early 1967 but I guess it's possible.

I've never seen any original IA Elevators albums. I would think they would be out of reach.

Who said the multitracks are lost? It would be easier if I could hear the same parts from both sources, but the CD mix has the "gurgling" sound center-right, while the LP mix has it hard left. Yet the drums are roughly center-right on both. And the vocal tracks seems fairly distinct on bo...

I don't know if they're lost in the "totally gone" sense, but I think they're lost in the "nobody's ever bothered using them" sense. Also, the very odd characters at the Texas Psych group claim to have the Easter Everywhere 8-track. It still sounds to me like the older mix, but ...

I'm confused about the Third mixes. I talked to someone that had an in-house Ardent from '75 and he said the mixes were the same. In case anyone missed this from SH.tv. Apparently the 2 disc 1 tracks credited to Christmas Future are really from the proto Big Star band Icewater.. In case anyone misse...

BIG STAR - April 7, 1974 audience recording on Dime

Anybody snag this yet? I don't have a Dime login. Supposedly one of the songs is an unheard original :shock: With this, the Ardent comp with all the outtakes and the upcoming doc it's a great time to be a Big Star fan. BIG STAR - April 7, 1974 audience recording is now being torrented on DIME: http:...

FWIW I don't hear any edits on Baby Don't Do It. I'm not the best at picking those things out though.

My disc one review cut and pasted from SH.tv.. Got View From A Backstage Pass a few days ago. I haven't spent much time with disc two so this really only applys to the content on disc one.
