Words & Music
I've just bought a copy of Lindsey's Words & Music promo CD, and I was wondering how many copies of this promo were made. I've seen it listed on ebay quite a few times. Does anyone know? Do any of you Ledgies have it?

I bought it, oddly enough, at the "flea market" area of the Los Angeles Beatlefest convention in 1993. I had never heard of it until then.
As far as I can recall, there were many pressed...to distribute to a number of radio station programmers. It's not exactly "rare", but it never was a "commercial" release, either. Kind of in that grey area. Which makes me think: If the master tapes of the Buckingham Nicks album were in good enough shape for them to use "Stephanie" on this album and "Long Distance Winner" on Stevie's Enchanted box, why can't the release the damned thing in its entirety??

Uh, take another listen to Stephanie there. I have the W&M CD and I'm 99.9% sure that the source for Stephanie is an LP. It's always bugged me why they didn't use the master tapes, though. I know that the mastered masters are available (it's the track masters that I heard were missing, making a dvd-audio impossible)and simply awaiting Stevie and Lindsey's decision to release a cd.

In Keith Olsen's Q&A I recall him saying (ok, I'll admit to being too lazy to actually go over & re-read it for accuracy, so I could be wrong here) that the master tapes are available, but in fragile shape. Ken Calliat, in his Q&A, seemed to insinuate the same thing.

I don't remember what it was that tipped me off, but at some point when I got the CD I listened to it with headphones and heard some of the tell-tale sounds that pointed to it's source being an lp. Still, since it was no doubt recorded on better equipment than most people have in their home audio set-up, it sounds better than any recording you'd be able to obtain on the internet or by making yourself. There is some kind of filter available that reduces surface noise on the fly from lps. When I recorded my BN lp I hired this guy a friend of mine knew (he was actually a friend of a friend of a friend, to be specific) and he had such a componant and he got a much better recording than I'd ever been able to get. It only cost me a few blank cd-r's.

Yeah, Stephanie is definitely off vinyl. And my bet is that it's not even a brand new copy, I can here a few crackles in there aside from the surface noise, not too good. Which leads to the other question, what was the source for Lond Distance Winner? Anyone?
