A very friendly DIME fellow who wants to stay anonymous sent his collection of Spotlight Kid outtakes. Thank you very much for your generosity!
Every Beefheart fan has its own version, but this time we are talking about a known 2nd gen!
A former band member received the tapes on getting the gig, they were made for him in order to learn the tunes. Our guy got them directly from him, he transferred the tapes to CDR using a stand alone CD burner, no editing or mastering in this step.
What I got are FLAC files directly ripped from the CDR. The sound quality of the tracks is astonishing, my english isn't good enough to describe the details. You have to hear them!
