This is the Bitter Blue Compilation. I have seen it all over the web in various forms - mostly MP3. I've tried obtaining a truly lossless version, but have not been successful, so I decided to re-create it myself. This version of this great compilation is comprised of completely lossless files with TWO exceptions - "It's All Gravy" from Disc 1 and "Get Me High" from Disc 2. They are MP3 files. Sorry about that, but for now, that is all I can find. I will continue looking those and if I find lossless copies, I will update this accordingly.

I take no credit whatsoever for compiling this. I don't know who compiled it originally, but they did a great job putting together an excellent list of rare songs.

I can't make any restrictions on distributing this myself really, since none of these files were taped by me, but I will say this,

PLEASE RESPECT THE WISHES OF TAPERS AND DO NOT CONVERT TO MP3 OTHER THAN FOR PERSONAL USE (obviously the two files I mentioned above are the exception).

Enjoy this terrific compilation.
