Hi Kiloh! I wish I knew how to download these CD's, but I don't so would you please burn me one of the new Elevators CD and send it to me in Austin? Also, I miss the CD art you guys used to do! And I really like the way you put our situation- that this music is not for sale AND that neither are the fans that make this music available. Well put!  L8er, Jack

   What now for CD Club torrents?

      Steve Froy <frogs...@gmail.com> Aug 05 08:57PM +0100

      Pirate Bay and Demonoid have been used to make the last few CD Club

releases available. There's obviously a demand out there because I've had

over 100GB upped from my machine alone.

Here in the UK many of the ISPs have blocked access to Pirate Bay so that's

no longer an option for many of us over here.

I've always used Demonoid but now that's just been brought to its knees by

a denial of service attack. It might recover ... but the prognosis doesn't

sound good judging by this posting on Torrent Freak -

http://torrentfreak.com/demonoid-starts-redirecting-to-ads-and-malwar...

If that goes down permanently what's the alternative?

rollin' on

DEMOS

Tracks 1 and 2 are from the "demos" cassette. Tracks 3-6 are of the same

era but

in much better quality. These were sourced from clean vinyl and processed to

remove stray ticks and pops. They have never appeared on CD and as such are

a

major find.

Track 3 is the same performance of "Monkey Island", but it was truncated on

the

LP. The differing sound quality made it impractical to splice them

together, and

so both can be foundhere.

KAZZ

Tracks 7 through 15 are the KAZZ show. These have been presented previously

by

the Roky CD Club on "Reverberation In The Round" but taken from a vinyl

source.

That tape was edited and the songs out of sequence, although the processing

may

have been more successful overall. (The vinyl boot may have come from

cleaner

tapes, although none seem to be in circulation.) This new version is

intended to

contrast the previous one, not to replace it. The speed is correct, and

digital

artifacts kept to a bare minimum.

Half the enjoyment is in the DJ patter, most of which is missing from

"Reverberation In The Round". The announcer sounds as if he had come of age

in

the swing band era. Presumably he despised the garage rock scene but,

consummate

professional that he was, we will never know for sure.

SESSIONS

Much of tracks 16 through 27 overlap with the "Ortman tape" heard on "High

Baptismal Flow", and the quality is comparable to that. However several

songs on

each are not found on the other. Since this tape came directly from

International Artists, it is worth preserving in its entirety here.

THE CASSETTE

With the exception of tracks #3 through #7, all of these were recovered from

reference cassettes found with a stash of International Artists multitrack

master tapes (as well as the reel-to-reel deck upon which "Easter

Everywhere"

was recorded), purchased at a garage sale in the Southwest in 2004.

The "demos" cassette features a white printed label, blank except for "RCA

Cassette Duplicating, 8206 Westpark Dr. Houston, Texas 77063." One side

contains

the KAZZ-FM show, the other is demos from January and April 1966, some of

which

were later used for the so-called "Live" album. Applause was dubbed onto

them,

but this tape contains the original mixes (albeit in mediocre quality).

This CD marks the first time "Everybody Needs Somebody" has been heard

without

the crowd overdubs, as well as the first time this rendition of "Monkey

Island"

has been presented in its entirety.

Titles on the demo side of the cassette are as follows:

1)You Can't Hurt Me Anymore

2)I'm Gonna Love You Too

3)Everybody Needs Somebody

4)Monkey Island

5)Roller Coaster

6)Splash 1

7)Through The Rhythm

8)You've Got To Take That Girl

9)Fire Engine

10)Miss Me

11)Tried To Hide

Except for #3, 4, 5, 7 and 9, all of these can be found in better quality on

"High Baptismal Flow" and "Psychedelic Sounds Alternate Mix".

#3-4 were used on this disc. The other tracks can be found on "Fire In My

Bones". (Since that album has been rendered permanently out of print, they

can

be heard here as well.)

It is believed that this is one of a small set of reference cassettes that

International Artists would have dubbed for the band members to take home.

(More

likely the KAZZ side had been blank originally, but this is believed to be a

low-gen copy, possibly 1st gen.)

The quality is what one could expect from such sources. Cassette was low-end

audio in the mid-1960s, and the tapes had not been lovingly preserved.

However,

the material has been restored as much as possible, and is quite listenable

for

what it is. There may or may not be better source tapes in existence.

Until such are released, these will serve to plug most of the few remaining

holes in the 13th Floor Elevators' ongoing discography.

This CD is NOT available commercially.

This music is NOT for sale.

Neither is anything else from the IA stash.

Neither are the fans who make it available to you.
