Hey Tom and all...
I would be happy to burn you a copy as soon as I get a moemnt to. I
have just recently moved in the past few days, so am still getting
situated, but will cut you a copy as soon as my burner is up and
running. Send me your address and I'll give you a heads-up when it
is coming your way. It is definitely a real treat to have in your
collection, though I must say that I believe the re-recording/mixing
of the Chamberlain version to be the definitive versions of those
songs, most notably Five-Year Diary.
As far as I know, the Tracy Chapman cover has appeared only on the
Japanese import version of Fates Got a Driver and on the Split Lip
compilation that compilies some live Split Lip cuts, some covers,
and hard to find early split lip tunes that I think only appeared on
the Soul Kill 7". The Talkin' About Revoltion cover is really great
because you can start to hear of the shift and carryover from Split
Lip to Chamberlain.
Hope all are well,
*luke*
