total time: 147.45 min

Notes: as to some flawed protions in the MC version there were no fills available (i.e. COTL post-solo) these have been left untouched.
Also, a major portion with muffled sound in the right channel (13 Stairway end~14 Packard Goose Bartok) has been converted to mono by copying the left channel material to the right. Sounds less distracting this way than attempting to include diff.source material.

For single-source purists a "KKchome MC source material only" subfolder (56 MB) has been added to this seed, including these few portions:
01kkc The Black Page (final part) [0:54]°°° as it cuts in
10kkc Cosmik Debris (full track) [4:16]°°° tf/cut in guitar solo @ 1:51
13kkc We're Turning Again [1:36]°°° portion around flawed part
15kkc King Kong (final sax solo unpatched) [2:47]°°° tf/cut @ 1:40

also included, in separate "pbuzby" subfolder (3 MB):
02pb Dickie's opening [0:21]
