jazzcdburner notes (2006):
Seeding this due to various requests and its rarity, but the quality is not up to my
usual standards and I was reluctant to post this. I think I have improved the
listenability quite a bit via soundforge. Also I am not familiar with this music,
so I apologize if the tracking is incorrect.

For Mr_Mags, phil_space, snaimpally, and whomever else.


Editing notes (2026):
-agalli sent me his CDR copy of the files that jazzcdburner originally seeded

-phase corrected the channel alignment
-automatically balanced levels
-speed corrected because:
-Track 1 was 0.35% fast for the first 60 sec, then quickly transitioned to 0.9%
fast, and then became 1.5% fast by the end of track 1. By about 2.5 mins~ into
track 2, it was 1.85% fast, where it stayed until the end of track 3.
-Track 4 was 1.0% fast, and track 5 started 1.0% fast and transitioned to 0.7% fast
by the end.
