Comment
This is a rough mix analog cassette of the pre production sessions the band worked on before going to Nashville to cut Strangers Almanac.
recorded 12/96 at Captured Live, Durham NC
Producer: Chris Stamey
Engineer: Tim Harper
These sessions produced the double sided 7inch that was released on bloodshot and sold at the 1997 WT shows. Its just that this tape represents the working mixes of the songs just as they came off the mixing board. No mastering has been done except that I put a standard EQ on the copy I have when I took it to cd. Being a rough mix, the levels on certain songs are different than others, and you can hear starts and stops between, where songs were put down to tape, and there's some analog hiss. Much closer in feel to Faithless St. than the Strangers record ended up being. Some nuances in arrangement from the final record as well.
It is imperfect, but gives us something to look forward to when an "official" version of these sessions see the light of day (if they ever do).
Ryan- acoustic and electric guitars
Phil- electric guitars
Caitlin- fiddle
S. Terry- drums
Billy Ladd- steel
Chris Stamey- bass, piano, percussion
