I was going to upload this one yesterday, what with the man's 70th and all, but as usual got sidetracked (shocking).



BOB DYLAN
Million Miles: Live Recordings 1997-1999
(FLAC)

Four-song "promo CD in a plain black cut-out sleeve given away free with purchases of Dylan albums", as searchingforagem.com describes it. Tracks extracted by yours truly from an original copy using EAC, converted to FLAC via FLAC Frontend and tagged with TagScanner (dunno if the tags will show on your player, though). High-res artwork and md5 included. This nugget is a real favorite of mine - the megatonic version of "Love Sick" alone is worth the download (and the price I paid for my copy, sho nuff).

01 - Love Sick [live "Grammy" version]
Performed at Radio City Music Hall, New York, NY on Feb. 25, 1998 for the 40th Annual Grammy® Awards telecast.

02 - Can't Wait [live version]
Live "Field Recording" at El Rey Theatre, Los Angeles, CA on Dec. 20, 1997.

03 - Million Miles [live version]
Live "Field Recording" at Broome County Arena, Binghamton, NY on Feb. 19, 1999.

04 - Cold Irons Bound [live version]
Live "Field Recording" at El Rey Theatre, Los Angeles, CA on Dec. 16, 1997.
[Misdated Dec. 20 on the artwork; date correction taken from searchingforagem.com]

THE SOFT BOYS
Side Three
(FLAC)

2002 seven-track CD released as a companion of sorts to Nextdoorland. Limited edition of I don't know how many (can't be too many considering how scarce it seems to be and how much sick sons of bitches ask for it on Amazon; last one I saw on eBay went for over £100). Again, audio extracted by yours truly and high-res scans included. Bitchen!

"In 1978 The Soft Boys released a single called "(I Want To Be An) Anglepoise Lamp" and I thought that was so cool. Fucking Led Zeppelin never sang about wanting to be an Anglepoise lamp! I related heavy to that shit!" -Thurston

The Soft Boys!

Thanks!

Treading dangerously on thin ice with this one, as all of the material included here was actually later released on the (highly recommended) box-set. This is a rip, however, of the promo CD, which has been going for a bit too high a price in the recent appearances it has made on e-bay auctions.

I've been listening to a lot of stuff online recently on diverse bandcamp pages. Plenty of interesting stuff up there. At the moment, i'm listening to Tara Jane ONeil's "After A Dark Seven" which is a very nice instrumental album, long out of print or never released officially, i don't know. Here it is available in any lossy or lossless format that should satisfy anyone who might be willing to download a copy (Any fans of this lady here?):

Björk was only 11 years old when she released this, her very first album.
She was offered to make a second album slightly after this one, but turned it down.
This album was only released in limited edition and is very sought-after by collectors

It was never released on CD! There are bootlegs in CD format, but people often
mistake them for an original release, but the original is only available in LP format.
Rumors have it that they released a cassette version too, but we have no evidence.

Hi I am on the Avant Garde Project trip and having a wonderful time, thanks to the pointers and help received. I am surprised how much of it is intact, i will be seeding some of the rarer volumes for later AGP travellers.
The one I'm struggling with is AGP 60 Wilhelm Killmayer also the mysteriously titled track 2 "Disappearances' from AGP 16 Swedish Electroacoustic is also proving elusive, if anyone has it could they post or seed...many thanks...

I think you're confusing some AGP installments - AGP 16's second track is Bo Anders Persson's Proteinimperialism.

Venturing far into trainspotting territory,

Martin

Dunno whether reqs are au fait on this thread, but I've been looking high and low for Reflexive Universe by C.C.C.C. and the Alchemy Records World Record compilation. Anyone care to help?

Why am I interested in these? The former on account of being the only recording advertised in the oh! moro vol. 5 video which I don't have; the latter because its the only part of the full Good Alchemy series I don't have.

i was researching early Kraftwerk and other "krautrock" stuff, came across this intriguing page on discogs for self released CDrs by Eberhard Kraneman. Anybody know a source for these?

http://www.discogs.com/artist/Eberhard+Kranemann

http://www.discogs.com/Origins-Of-Kr...elease/2034569

It's Kranemann, with two n's.

Pernicketiness aside: I recently got these for a friend:
http://boomkat.com/cds/345395-larsen...tion-of-errors (bought)
http://www.torroid.ru/torrent/88755.html (downloaded)
The opening track (Tickety-Boo) of the Larsen/NWW disc is really weird, but in a good way.

I appreciate perSnicketiness, and thank you for your links; I'll check them out. I bet those CDRs are impossible to come by unless you are hip to that dude's scene and attend some shows in country.

Welcome aboard the S.S. Sonic Youth, diston! Check your PM box, and you may be pleasantly surprised...

I quote from Lou Davenport's notes in AGP16: Swedish Electroacoustic:
"01 - Ragnar Grippe, Musique Douze [13:53]
02 - Bengt Emil Johnson, Disappearances [8:46]
03 - Bo Anders Persson, Proteinimperialism [24:45]"

As it turns out, the only track which has survived copyright claims is the third, Persson's "Proteinimperialism." The others have been deleted from the installment.

Thanks, I stand corrected. Does anyone have the original full installment?

Glad I could help, rappard.

I'll take a look on my archives this weekend, if i happen to have the whole thing, i'll gladly share it.

Took a look at my unorganized bunch of data DVD-Rs. I was thinking about giving up when i finally found it. Sadly though, my copy of AGP16-Swedish Electroacustic is also missing the second track. I'm tempted to track down an official release containing it. All torrents i've found so far are completely dead.

Angels in America: Cunt Tree Grammer (Ecstatic Peace)

Yeah it sems the AGP is still alive and kicking in the torrent world, with the exception of the Swedish Electroacoustic track, I think it's only AGP60 (Killmayer) and AGP141 (RER Quarterly 101) which are incomplete, if anyone can point me towards these I would be most grateful....cheers

Looking for More Lete Organ, Nantua 1848, 24-bit. Any help via bittorrent? I'm at 75.7% and dead in the water.

I've been seeding this in intervals of a few hours for a couple of days after seeing your request. I've been having problems to connect, though. I keep getting a message that reads: "No connection was made because the target machine actively refused it", or something like that. I've only uploaded about 800 MB so far, but it seems two other people have completed, and there are still 10 leechers in the swarm, according to my client. I'll upload it to Megaupload as well, and post the link in a bit.

I've been getting the same message for older AGP torrents that were uploaded to TPB.

MORE LETE MORGAN, NANTUA 1848, 24-BIT/44.1 KHZ FLAC

loudav's notes:

This is a 24-bit/44.1 kHz transcription using high-end analog equipment of performances by Pierre Guillot of works by Antoine-Edouard Batiste (1820-1876) and Louis James Alfred Lefébure-Wély (1817-1869), played on the organ built in 1848 by Nicolas-Antoine Lété for l'Eglise Abbatiale de Nantua. This is the same organ that was featured in an earlier 24-bit torrent, and is offered in response to all of those people who I'm sure were thinking: this guy can't upload just one torrent devoted to such a remarkable instrument, can he? These performances were recorded by Peter Willemoës and originally released on LP by Erato (STU 71049) in 1977.

Lété, together with the much more celebrated Aristide Cavaillé-Coll, contributed to the development of the French symphonic organ, and the Nantua organ exhibits an intriguing early form of those innovations. More even than later symphonic organs, the timbres of this organ remind me of early 20th century theater organs such as those made by Wurlitzer. Like those organs, its higher wind pressures produce more complex (and delightfully vulgar) timbres from single stops.

The influence of opera in Lefebure-Wely's works further aids the resemblance of these works to silent movie scores. The effect is less pronounced in Batiste's compositions, which are more dignified and sound to me like an earlier, simpler Louis Vierne. But they do offer ample opportunities to demonstrate the range of timbres possible on the instrument. For example, the Offertoire-Fantasie-Orage (Storm Fantasy) makes use of the Storm Pedal stop, and the Verset features the unusual Musette stop.

BTW, I'm delighted to report that Batiste, Lefébure-Wély, and Lété are all so obscure that not one of them merits even a brief article in my edition of the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. Yet maybe I'm just trivial, but I love this stuff and for sheer timbral enjoyment I'd put Lété's organ up against many of the Cavaillé-Coll organs I've heard.

The LP transcribed for this torrent is in excellent condition all around. I've included with this torrent the PDF file with scans of the extensive notes in French from the Harmonia Mundi LP featuring the same organ, including numerous pictures of the organ and its pipes, and a list of the organ's stops. The Erato notes are much shorter and relatively unrevealing--with no registrations, I'm afraid.

rappard, do you consider it would be more comfortable for you to download this from the "No Soup For You" folder (if you are missing it) rather than from Megaupload? If so, i'll be happy to put it there as well.

Thanks for asking, but my connection seems fine at the moment. Is the description (which I've just snipped) included in the download as well?

Yes, it is. Besides the info text file, a .pdf and .flac fingerprint are also included.

Would you folks mind jumping in again on bittorrent with More Lete Organ? I'm at 100%, but some poor yutz is limping along at 12% and I'm able to give him only 1 kB/sec.

I see there are 3 seeders at the moment (i'm one of them) and 4 leechers, and only one of them is connectable. I'm upping some lame 3.2 kB/s at best. I'm afraid he might be the one who needs to sort out a problem with his connection. I'll leave this torrent running for a while, though.

Great, thanks hbj, and I have some news on the AGP front: now another mirror at the Internet Archive: http://www.archive.org/details/iaagp

I'm glad to help.

You've posted one of the best links ever. I'm sure a lot of people will appreciate it.

HAYDN BARYTON TRIOS-24 BIT 44.1 KHZ FLAC

This is a 24-bit/44.1 kHz transcription using high-end analog equipment of a performance of five of Haydn's divertimenti for baryton, viola, and violoncello, by the Münchner Baryton-Trio. It was released on LP on the always excellent Claves label (D 609). The CD reissue is now long out of print and available only as an mp3 download, which cannot do justice to the complex tones of the recording.

The baryton is a modified viola da gamba with sympathy strings that resonate in response to the vibrations of the bowed strings. The sympathy strings produce a more complex timbre, and can also be plucked directly by the performer's thumb. The baryton never hit it big, but it was a favorite of Haydn's patron, Prince Nikolaus Esterházy, and so Haydn wrote about 175 pieces for the instrument between 1765 and 1775. More information on the baryton can be found in the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, and in Wikipedia.

This is a nicely engineered recording that brings out the distinctive timbres of each of the instruments. The sound of the baryton's sympathy strings can be heard in rests, as the sound of the bowed strings dies away. The LP is in immaculate condition, and there is virtually no tracking distortion at all, which is remarkable given that they packed over 30 minutes of recording onto each side of the LP.

I have recently uploaded three other 24-bit LP transcriptions of comparable quality, and will be doing more in the near future. You can find them by clicking on my user id.

Equipment used for A/D conversion: Lyra Helikon phono cartridge, Linn LP12/Lingo turntable, Linn Ittok tonearm, Audioquest LeoPard tonearm cable, PS Audio PS2 preamplifier, Kimber PBJ interconnect, M-Audio Audiophile USB A/D converter.

The track listing is given in the order of the original LP.
