hey...

[...]

yes, it's that time again where many, many new and exciting bootleg cdrs are
on offer to you, the loyal igslist reader for nothing save the cost of
blanks and postage. and, although i say so myself, i've really surpassed
myself. most of these are fine, fine, must-have discs.

you can take a sneak peak at the artwork and full tracklistings here:
www.go.to/neilytones
although i need to finalize the liner notes for one of them - it should be
there in a day or two.

all will fit on one 74 minute disc, except where noted:

attack of the killer b-sides volume five
- - the fifth (go fig) in this popular series which tries to compile all the
indigo girls' officially released rarities. including the 'cold beer...'
promo and an awesome ~exclusive alternate mix~ of peace tonight.

indigo originals (2 cd set)
- - over forty original amy and emily compositions which never made it onto an
epic album. (sources vary from excellent quality studio to
slightly-dodgy-but-cleaned-up-as-best-i-could audience tapes) plus a couple
of fine new amy songs as bonus tracks! this is a must-have set!!!

columbia records radio hour plus!
- - the indigo girls' latest promo-only cd, following in the footsteps of club
r+r and the coffee promo, together with two other excellent radio shows.
mostly taken from the cds sent to radio shows for broadcast, this is a fine
quality set. includes two songs exclusive to these broadcasts!

complete shepherd's bush, 22 november 1994 (2 cd set)
- - partially released on in with the out crowd, this release surplants that
by offering the full show, half from an audience tape and half (more than
iwtoc) from soundboard sources. featuring cover art with pictures, setlist
and ticket from the actual show.

uk95 - three days in june
- - the complete uk 1995 tour in best-ever quality. now you can really throw
away those copies of 'iwtoc' and 'complicated girls' because it's on these
discs sounding better and more complete. two acoustic radio sessions and the
glastonbury live concert (including backstage performances).

peabody's downunder
- - a nifty radio broadcast from way back in 1989. nothing too special, and
it's not a must-have but it's sounding great.

reverse 1 / shades of indigo (1 x 80 minute cdr)
- - two full-length promo-only releases on one disc. nothing new here if you
already have them, but if you don't, it's a spiffy way to own 'em.

live on the tv (1x80 minute cdr)
- - two iffy 'commercial bootleg' cds on one disc - apparently taken from a
video (funnily enough), not wonderful, but acceptable sound, and interesting
performances. and it'll save you buying a copy!

stay tuned for details on how to get your very own copy - i'm just going off
now to finalize the tree...

[sherlyn's note: this message was originally sent to the indigo
girls mailing list at netspace.org.]

if you're interested in getting copies of the discs (as just posted), save
this email!!

here's what to do. work out which disc(s) you want, then contact the
appropriate branch as listed below. if they're not overloaded, they'll ask
you to provide blanks and return postage/packaging and they will copy the
discs for you free of charge. please respect them if they've reached their
copy limit, or if i screwed up and gave you the wrong information.

in return for their time, i ask that you do a few things to aid them:
- - remove the cellophane from the discs you send them.
- - it's easier (and cheaper) to send discs without jewel cases (but
protected).
- - don't use nasty fiber-filled mailers, use bubble-wraped ones.
- - consider a thank you gift. it's not necessary in order to obtain these
discs, but an extra blank or two, some chocolate, or a kind word never goes
unappreciated.
- - pass on the karma: make boots for other people; let folks know they can
get quality boots for free; make a link on your website to
www.geocities.com/igreport

anyway here are the branch details. i toyed with the idea of having everyone
email me and then i'd assign everyone to the branches, but decided against
it - i hope this works. here goes:

if you just want:

- - attack of the killer b-sides volume five
- - uk:95 - three days in june
- - indigo originals (2 cd set)
- - or any subset thereof
jason - hare@optonline.net

if you just want:
- -columbia records radio hour
michelle - napier@usit.net

if you just want:
- - b-sides volume five
- - columbia records radio hour
- - indigo originals
mirinda (i think i got these discs right)
mirinda.kovacs@westgroup.com

if you want all ten of the discs (or a different combination):
then choose the person corresponding to your birth month. (some of these
people might not be able to copy 80 minute discs - i messed up and didn't
note this down every time. if that's the case, and you want 'em, then i can
help you myself).

january - february
mary mbpost@earthlink.net

march - april
marian mrowan@gmu.edu

may - june
karen kla@aloha.net

july - august
jerry doerz@my-deja.com

september - october
jennifer jenfer7193@aol.com

november - december
kristi krishensn@aol.com (not the 80 min discs)
(kristi, your discs will go out tomorrow to you, priority mail)

if a branch has reached their limit or otherwise is unable to do the discs
you want, or for whatever other reason*, then:
neil neil@andineil.com

(*especially if you want to send me a copy of emily's solo tape or the 1992
sanframsisco show...)

and that's basically it. i hope this made sense...
any positive or negative feedback on this structure is welcomed. any
questions from the branches or others, then i'll do my best to answer...

neil
