Robyn's Xmas Party


Here

That was a compilation put together by JBJ.  Live versions of then-unreleased songs that would eventually appear on Jewels For Sophia and Star For Bram.  Robyn had joked in an interview Here that his next album was to be entitled “Robyn's Rockin' Christmas Party Album”; hence, the name of the comp. Get the official cover art here.

    This is a compilation tape of tracks that were new at the time, but which mostly became the
    albums "A Jewel For Sophia" and "A Star For Bram".


    Trade Tape -> Tascam 202mkv cassette player -> Realtek soundcard ->
    SoundForge 7.0 -> sampled at 44/16 -> .wav -> TLH -> .flac -> WinRAR -> .rar file -> you

    This tape comes to you from the collection of Eddie Tews.

    When transferring tapes, I always play every inch of tape on both sides. Nothing but silence at the end is ever edited or altered.

    If you want to "remaster" or provide a more detailed set list, please help yourself.
