Anyone have a chance to hear Niko Bolas’s new Landing On Water masters from the original tapes? Loudness was not an issue with his first attempt at bringing the album to NYA. But these new files are maybe a bit more full sounding. A great record becomes a tad more listenable. Thoughts?
Not enough controversy to get a reply on this topic, so let me just add that the plan for the timespan covered in Archives Vol. 3 will go from Spring ‘76 through Summer 2026 for a nice round number of fifty years covered.
Great to hear Mark talk on about his shows and speculations, though I'm pretty sure he was conflating the 1997 Ham Sandwich incident with the start of his 1987 summer horse tour! As I am wont to, I figured I would chime in on what I've heard on Vol3 as well. So we have 13 disks, CDs presumably. The organization will be a bit different than the timeline linear Vol1. Neil is creating new albums which are expected to center on "fresh tracks" or unheard and mostly original versions. So don't expect to hear the versions of Comes A Time or Hey Hey My My that you already know. This one won't be a retrospective. So that is different. And we do know how it will start and what the first 5 or six disks will be. Where it will end is a guess. Neil has given us two dates to ponder. 1)Early 1990 and 2)1987. So based on what I have been able to gather to date, here is my latest speculation. And Neil seems to be clamping down on providing further information.
Vol3: 1976-1989
Disk1: Electric Judy Presents Chaos and the Horse it Rode In On. (1976) (PS 7.5) [Confirmed by Neil as Disk 1 in the press]
Disk2: A Snapshot In Time. (1977) [confirmed by Neil as Disk2 in a letter from 12-Apr-22]
Disk3: Oceanside-Countryside (1977) [Stated as "disk 3" in a letter from 6-Oct-21]
Disk4: Union Hall (Give To The Wind) (1977) [confirmed by Neil as Disk4 in a letter from 13-Dec-21]
Disk5: Boarding House (1978) (PS8) [Confirmed as a Vol3 disk]
Disk6: Johnny's Island (1982) [Confirmed as a Vol3 disk]
Disk7: Greatest Misses (1976-1984) [Speculation. Might include selected Ducks tracks through those solo synclavier demos from 1984]
Disk8: Old Ways (1983-1985) [Confirmed as a Vol3 disk]
Disk9: A Treasure (expanded) (1984-1985) [Confirmed as a Vol3 disk]
Disk10: Live In A Rusted Out Garage (1986) (PS10) [Confirmed as a Vol3 disk]
Disk11: Road Of Plenty (1986-1989) [Confirmed by Neil as Disk 11 in the sneak preview of Sixty To Zero 31-Mar-22]
Disk12: Live Freedom (1989) (PS11.2) [Described as the End of Vol3 in a T-C front page article on 26-Mar-21, albeit prior to the "scaled it back" note]
Disk13: Summer Songs (1987) [Late addition added as a bonus disk, Confirmed By Neil in a letter 1-Dec-21).
