The Butcher Says..
Yes, I believe something horrible DID happen to the tapes somewhere. The first time that Richard Formby and I played this CD we sat there laughing. Still, Bootleg No.2 is easier to get used to than the first one, so again, it's a souvenir. After all, if you were there, you can remember what it really sounded like. For loonie completists only, for sure, though, if you listen through the muck, you'll see that we did our bit. Source: Pat Letter: 1993-08-30

    Just picked up a used copy of the "Western Family" album on CD ... and was pleased beyond words with the Galaxie 500 cover. Very nice! Used albums are a lot like filing sharing ... only nobody seems to care about the lost revenue. Weird.
