Dave Grohl & Foo Demos - Remasters by Mike Wilkinson

Thank you to everybody that helped me put this together, by providing me with all the sources I needed to properly execute the remastering.

This remaster suite consists of:
Late! Pocketwatch,
1992-1993 demos,
FF 1996-01-24 Lang session unreleased tracks.

I did not include Allister Lob because 1) I wont listen to it 2) I think its an un-interesting performance 3) its got too many sound drop-outs, and because I'm not interested in the session, I'm not going to bother with it. Plus, in its unfinished state, it doesnt fit in with the awesome songs on this compilation. Also the available transfer of Allister Lob sounds great as is - I just don't like the session. I also did not include Butterflies from 10/94 because the bootleg version of it (which is the best) is noise reduced to the max, and the whole session tape is expected to get a proper transfer sometime soon anyway (hopefully).

I spent alot of time on these. Its awesome to finally have an edition of all this stuff that I can listen to and fully enjoy. I hope you will enjoy the end product as much as I do.

January 2008

1) Late! Pocketwatch
01. Pokey The Little Puppy
02. Petrol CB
03. Friend Of A Friend
04. Throwing Needles
05. Just Another Story About Skeeter Thompson
06. Color Pictures Of A Marigold
07. Hell's Garden
08. Winnebago
09. Bruce
10. Milk

Remastering Notes:
*Speed Corrected and Eq adjustment based on comparison with "Skeeter"from the King Buzzo CD, the only CD-based official release of these sessions, and the best sounding segment of these sessions currently available
*Stereo Re-Alignment, which was a minor adjustment compared to many tapes
*Sound drop-outs repaired
*Maximum peak levels set to -0.10 dB (no over-normalization)
*On this source, the end of Marigold cuts off, so I patched the end of the song with Marigold from Outcesticide III, after that had been speed corrected to match the rest of the tape. It is noteworthy to mention that Outcesticide III, considered the best source of the song, has grittier and less bright hiss than the NAK transfer, and although on Outcesticide III the hiss is slightly lower in amplitude, I suspect it has been run through noise reduction.
*This source is known to be free of noise reduction, which is not an attribute that I am convinced that even the best sounding bootleg of these sessions is free from.

SOURCE (SBD #1a)
---------------
Soundboard studio recording

GENERATION

2) Dave Grohl Demos, 1992-1993

11. Mountain view
12. Big Me
13. Alone +n Easy Target
14. Good Grief
15. Weenie Beenie
16. Floaty

(This session didn't come with any source/generation/lineage/transfer information - its the common transfer- "Trade from: Gino Galvez")

Remastering Notes:
*Speed Corrected and Eq adjustment based on Exhausted from the Pearl Jam Self Pollution Radio
*Stereo Re-Alignment to eliminate timing difference of left/right channels
*Maximum peak level set to -0.10 dB (no over-normalization)
*Fixed a maddeningly numerous amount of sound drop-outs, some of which could not be completely repaired
*Neutralized an INSANE amount of the little clicks throughout the tape, which had ruined the listening experience. Now it sounds smooth all the way through! This alone was enough to KILL this tape's listenability in my mind. Now it can be listened to with pleasure instead of irritation.

17. Gas Chamber (from Pearl Jam Self-Pollution)
18. Exhausted (from Pearl Jam Self-Pollution)

* I included Gas Chamber and Exhausted from the Pearl Jam Self Pollution Radio, the direct CD>FLAC transfer. I clipped off the sounds of Eddie breathing and other "on air" noises, and lowered the volume slightly so these tracks fit in better with the rest of these sessions, and faded out the end of Exhausted so none of the "on air" sounds remained. These were not changed other than that.

3) Foo Fighters, 1996-01-24 Lang Session

19. Butterflies
20. I'm Alone Again

Generation: ANA(3)->CDR(2)->.flac, Encoded by BS

Remastering Notes:
*Speed Corrected and Eq adjustment based on Down In The Park official release
*Stereo Re-Alignment to eliminate timing difference of left/right channels
*Sound drop-outs repaired
*Maximum peak level set to -0.10 dB (no over-normalization)
