- INFO AND TRACKLIST BELOW
Here's what I promised! This is most of the famed tapes recorded at the home of Eve and Mac McKenzie between 1961 and 1962, although there is debate on whether these sessions spilled into '63. For years, there was a bootleg tape in circulation of the complete sessions. Unfortunately, the quality of these recordings was horrendous. Even for a bootleg collector like me, the tracks were mostly unlistenable. It wasn't until I acquired "The 50th Anniversary Collection - 1962" that I discovered that another version of the tape existed. Some of the tracks recorded were studio quality.
It occurred to me that the bootlegs in circulation must've been recordings of the recordings. I don't know the whole story, but it was common that bootleggers would express interest in certain rare tapes for sale, hide tape recorders in their coats while listening to these tapes at the seller's home, then later release the recordings they took there. If you'd like to hear what the original tape sounded like, the second song
Possibilities aside, we're very lucky to have these crystal clear recordings. Enjoy this gem while you can!
