Calling all +Live+ Collectors!, Your help is needed for an exciting project... Options

[ridley]

I'm calling on all +Live+ fans to dig into their CD collections and hopefully help out with an ambitious project.

For a while now I've been trying to track down lossless/FLAC copies of EVERY +Live+ track that has appeared on a single, holiday gift, soundtrack, compilation or promo. That is EVERY officially released rarity known to exist.

I'm planning on compiling this into a 10-CD mega box set (with complete artwork of course) to be posted for download here in the multimedia forum.

Between my own collection and recent uploads from Dan ( ), I have now collected together about 140 tracks. However there are 30-odd left to complete the collection - so it would be much appreciated if you could have a quick look through the list below, and let me know if you have any of the following:

Ridley,

I will have a look, but I was triggered by your request:
I definitely have the original single "Run Away - Tuppin remix", so count me in for uploading it to "us - you" (I hope today, even though it is Eastern).
(FLAC is good ? (BTW I also do have some *.ogg files - what is the quality of this format ?).
What is the best program to convert the CD to FLAC ?

Cool idea.
I don't have the SFBM demo's and the cheetah radio broadcast. It would be cool to have these. Good luck with your compilation. I can't help you cause everything i have, has everyone on this board already. If you want FLAC's of the singles, dangum uploaded some in this section.

Good luck.

Ridley, you already have the Accoustic Performances of;

Love Shines, The River, Get Ready and Mystery (From the DVD-side of SFBM)

And the Acoustic Bonus Disc of TDTH with;

I Alone, The Dolphin's Cry, The Distance, The Stood up for Love.

I'll try to ask a friend of mine if he wants to help us out.

I've got these. They were only available as MP3's.
I've uploaded them here:

OGG files use lossy compression (like MP3). Audio encoded to OGG sounds better than MP3 but not as good as FLAC.

I recommend using Exact Audio Copy (EAC) to rip your CD into a WAV file. Then use Traders Little Helper to encode the WAV to FLAC.

Dangum,
THX a lot, I will do my best to supply the material asked for.
(First download the mentioned programs (and have a look at my Harddisk if there is something I haven't found until now).

I can provide you a pure sourced version of the studio track "Born Branded".
Let me know if you're interested. You'll have to wait a few weeks thought because I'll be on vacation and far from home tomorrow.

Cheers Dan! These versions bring back a lot of memories, must have listened to them a hundred times each prior to V coming out. Shame they didn't develop these 'demos' into something better!

I do already have these Wildman, but thanks anyway

Thanks Berlinone! Would be awesome if you could upload these to mediafire for us. Let me know if you have any trouble with the ripping/uploading. And Happy Eastern to you!

Thanks, but I already have this too. But if you happen to have a pure sourced version of 'Deeper' or 'Don't Wait' I'm also looking for those

Ridley,
(but naturally also for all of us),

The (almost all) promised files.
The one missing is from the 2 meter sessions, when I find it I will upload it.
If you do want any morte FLAC's , let me know.

Thanks Berlinone! Very much appreciated

Dangum posted them here a while ago : http://www.fansoflive.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2124.

I've got those too, but I'm hoping someone out there has higher sound quality versions in lossless. I know that the higher quality mp3 of Deeper in common circulation is sourced from this acetate:

http://www.livediscography.com/lcr_sec1_td...th_cdr_alt2_usa

And the version of Don't Wait from 'Pilgrimage To The Southern Stars' is higher quality than the 1998 Demo Session, but again I only have in mp3 - does anyone have 'Pilgrimage' in lossless?

I just (this morning at 07.15) found my missing CD.
This evening I will make the FLAC file from the missing "2 Meter sessions".
I will do my best.
I also looked for and found a CD with the mysterious text "LIVE - 2011 Pre release plus various", containing 19 songs and another one with the text "TDTH Promo (Enhanced)",
containing 14 songs.
I will keep you informed, but if anyone knows what this could be --> Please let me know.

BERLINONE

[BERLINONE]

As promised,
The missing Song (From me).
The Beauty of Gray - 2 Meter Sessies
Have Fun !
