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 <frog...@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-malware-120802/
 
 
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.
