notes:

complete second source, no NR was here used.

sounds brighter than Those Were Days but hiss is pretty marked.

the previous version I got from this recorder was missing the Fat Old Sun portion and the entire Echoes, this incomplete Fat Old Sun is present here only indeed, it was substitute by the first source on Those Were Days ... sound quality of this track is a bit different from the other ones (sounds a bit worse) but I believe is genuine from the same recorder and the same date (though some fantapes have this Echoes together with the songs from the other recorder, so this is a mix too?). My Irvine RoIO is a bit more enjoyable to listen to maybe, but it's not from a lower generation copy, sounds as a bit more amplified only. Hard to suggest a definitive version for this date, I'm happy to have got all of these 3 ones honestly ... is there something better out there?

notes as they came with the files:

This comes from the second recorder and is an incomplete recording; it is missing 'The Embryo' and 'Fat Old Sun' and 'Echoes' are cut. There is a ton of hiss on this recording, but it still manages to be very pleasant to listen to.

There are some weird edits between tracks, and most of the tune-ups and inbetween song banter are missing. It is however a nice upgrade over 'Those Were The Days'.
