QuoteThere seems to be a lack of It Still Moves material here, at least in comparison to material from the other albums.  Does he just not play those songs solo or have some of them just not been captured on tape?


Right you are.  I noticed the same thing.   I'm sure it's because the big rockers don't translate very well to solo acoustic.  OBH, Mahgeetah, Run Thru, Easy Morning Rebel.
Surprisingly though, I could never find a Just One Thing.   And then Rolling Back, which they hardly ever did even as a band unfortunately.

One more thing I forgot to mention.  I want it to be known that I used the concert poster from the Higher Ground in Vermont as a template for the bear/flying v .  It was created by Dkvt (Dennis Kegler).

I love this image and hopefully it is OK to use in this manner.  If anyone thinks differently, do not hesitate to let me know, and I will make something different.

Check out this one by Dennis.  Kind of looks like a moth or some kind of insect at first glance.   Pretty cool stuff.....

By the Way, the following songs were also performed live solo, but I do not have any recordings of them.

Just One Thing    10-17-03    Waterloo Records            Austin, TX
Come Closer         2-4-03     Upstairs At The Garage    London, UK
How Could I Know    This was performed at several of the MOF shows in Oct 04 but I couldn't find my copies.

And now, Wonderful the Way I Feel, which I will save for Disc 4 2008-2017. ;)

I decided I love the idea of the secret Dondante even though it was by mistake, so I will just leave it alone.

I'll check and see if I have any of those when I get home. I'm pretty sure I do.

Excellent, thanks, I should have asked you before I finished, but I'll figure something out.

yeah, I've got all three.  I guess I'll just add em up here tomorrow and people can do what they will with em.

BH

Dylan, how about this, I think I can fit them all on disc three, which is about where they should go anyway.  I will just re-do the back cover of disc three and give them track numbers (on the file names only) as follows so people know where to put them.  What do you think?

0.5 Come Closer
4.5 Just One Thing
6.5 How Could I Know

Also, I am in the process of sending lossless to Kory, so can you either send him those if you have them, or upload them to me on sendspace or something so I can get them to him?  If you only have mp3, that's fine, a few of mine are only mp3 as well.

BH

Can someone tell me how long disc 3 is.  I don't have them with me.  I'm worried now that all three new track might not fit.

Here's the extras:

Just One Thing 10-17-03 Waterloo Records Austin, TX
Come Closer 2-4-03 Upstairs At The Garage London, UK
How Could I Know - don't really know the source on this one but it's a good one.

I also added the version of At Dawn from Waterloo because I think I prefer it, not trying to step on toes or nothing, just another extra goodie.

EDIT: they're all mp3.  I keep few lossless files. i do have a lossless version of how could i know but i think this recording is better.

BH

Cool!  I will change the artwork tommorow.  (Once I confirm that all three will fit.)

OK, I finally fixed everything.

First of all, everything on the original post is updated.  The downloads that changed are shown in red.

These updates include two significant changes.

1)  I've added the three tracks from Dylan to Disc 3.  Thanks Dylan!  That now makes a total of 47 originals represented.  I have also updated the artwork for the back cover of Disc 3 to show these additional tracks.

For those of you who already downloaded here are copies of the updated links to make it easier to find.

Disc Three Part II

Disc Three Part III

2)  The At Dawn track that I originally put on the comp was a mistake.  It's a long story but I meant for it to be something else.  The track that was in the first download was actually from the Demos disc.   THIS DOES NOT BELONG!  I apologize for this hastle, but please replace At Dawn with the new track I recieved from Dylan.  I did not revise the back cover.   A long story on the weird date and location but I have my reasons.  Again, the original post has been fixed but for those of you who already downloaded, here is the revised link.

Hey BH, this really is so great, so thanks again. But can you tell me what I'm doing wrong that I don't see any art at the download site?  Is that a feature you get only if you're a member?

BH

The files for the cover art are zipped up in the Part I portion of each download.

For example, JJ Top 40 Disc One Part I has the first several mp3 tracks of disc one as well as the disc one cover art all zipped up together.  

Unless somthing got messed up.  If so, let me know.

Oh, okay I see.  I just started downloading them last night (and it takes me forever because I desperately need to buy some more memory).  I didn't unzip the files yet, but I'm sure it's all good.  Thanks brotha.
