Notes:
I received this one about a months ago once again from Joe A. who did
the transfer from his friend's vinyl bootleg. Unfortunately the LP
wasn't in a very good condition anymore. But I was able to remove or
at least subdue most of the unwanted noises. The result is quite
enjoyable, I think. No noise reduction or equalizing has been
performed.
Here is some information I found about the studio tracks:
Oenone
'Oenone', from Greek mythology, is the name of a nymph deserted by her
husband, Paris, for Helen of troy. Some prefer to spell this outtake
'Oneone', because it would be pronounced 'oh-nee-oh-nee', the same way
as the end of Zabriskie Point's director name, Michelangelo AntONIONI.
This title was probably given by the 'Omay Yad' bootleg LP manufacturers,
where this outtake first surfaced.
Fingal's Cave
'Fingal's Cave' is the name of a large cavern on Staffa islet in the
Hebrides, West Scotland. This title was probably given by the 'Omay
Yad' bootleg LP manufacturers, where this outtake first surfaced.
Crumbling Land - extended
This version is basically the same as the regular version from the
soundtrack album, but the ending with cars and street noises is uncut.
Rain In The Country
Alternate take from 'Unknown Song' (same basic track, but different
lead and overdubs, different edits). The title 'Rain In The Country'
was probably given by the 'Omay Yad' bootleg LP manufacturers, where
this outtake first surfaced.

Many thanks to Joe A. and Marc E. from Philadelphia for their
contribution to this project.
