What date is this from? / show before 88/8/10?
Does anyone know if the original is available anywhere? The file I've got sounds like its an MP3. Sorry if its been brought up a hundred times but I'm new.

Also, where can I get non-lossy Ascendo / Christmastime?

Peace in the Middle East

they're all sourced from a real audio>dat source

OK - Does this mean I cant get a non-loss file?

AFAIK, yes

edit-unless there is another transfer

Sorry, I dont know what you mean....

as far as i know, the only circulating version of Taking The Fall is the lossy one...cant discount a lossless transfer though

Thanks alot. Do you know about Christmastime / Ascendo? - the last Mp3s I've gotta get rid of.

your best bet is probably EIL or find someone who owns the cd to rip it for you

EIL?

please don't post in that horrid fucking davin yellow

EIL?
he means buy the cds they were released on, possibly from eil.com

Oh i see. Thanks alot people.

Oops.

Oh i see. Thanks alot people.

i have it in flac somewhere.

actually this is what i have.
Still Life - "Taking The Fall" (Billy Corgan on bass)
(C) 1988 - Still Life
Lineage: Real Audio>CDR>SHN

notes: Still Life is the other band that billy played with on 8-10-88.

sorry.

That seems the same as the one I have which sounds like an MP3. It doesn't even sound like a live recording.

can you YSI rocklobby? :love:

Christmastime is released on A Very Special Christmas Volume 3. And more recently (winter 2005 I believe) on some Victoria Christmas compilation. Can't remember how it was called exactly.

Ascendo is on Guitars that Rule the World Volume 2: Smell the Fuzz.

I recommend eBay over eil.com. These compilations are cheaper there.
I searched for "guitars smell fuzz" on eBay and already found 16 copies. Some have a buy-it-now option of $1.
Searching for "very special christmas 3" got me 17 copies, although some are cassettes. Most copies seem a bit more expensive than Smell the Fuzz, but there are also a lot of cheap copies here.

Or, as suggested earlier, you could also try and find someone who owns these cds and feels like sending you a flac.

Sweet. I've just never seen any on the British ebay. I'll should pull me finger out of me ass and check the US one.

actually this is what i have.

actually, if i'm not mistaken it wasn't @ Avalon, but @ Chicago21 880709 where BC played the bass for opening act Still Life...

also: I think it was a few years back (1999/2000?) when someone found out there were some RA-files from this show (or of other stuff) on someone's website (wasn't that one of the other guys in Still Life as a matter of fact?). This song has been rescued. Somehow I do remember there being talk of some mores RA-songs on that site, but I never saw anything of those, so I guess I just remember that wrong.

It was a christmas song compilation that was played in retails store such as Victoria's Secret, but that wasn't the official title of the comp. This was one of the updates that got lost from SPFC, but I do have the info on my home computer still. I'll find it and let you know, since it will be still several more weeks before i get that far in all my re-working of updates (i'm doing them in the order they were recived, and have stuff going back to Jan. 2004 I believe.

it's a double cd in a digipack called, iirc, christmas night and christmas morning. one cd for each to fit the moods. it was sold in victoria's secret.

also fuck you davin

they're all sourced from a real audio>dat source

i've never heard of these.

:2thumbsup thanks buddy!

you're welcome.

this rings a bell. my memory says it was called christmas eve, christmas morning.

it was, i have my copy of it sitting in my kitchen and happened to notice the title this morning

i found the email about this in my spfc inbox, had 2 actually, and the christamas eve/christmas morning cd was also heard playing in Wilson's (leather store) as well as Crown Books. I guess it means it could have been purchased by a store manager or employee at Victoria's secret, but what proof do you have that it was only sold there? Does it say something on the actual cd or packaging? All 3 stores were in a mall, maybe they have a common owner or something. :confused:

and fuck you dean.

The songs were posted on the website of the singer of Stil Life, who is now a graphic designer in Chicago. He's the source of the July 09 1988 poster as well.

His web page was sirreallabs.com. You can view the old index page in the Wayback machine.

He had an audio section on his page called Radio Free Squishy with links to his remixes, DJ sets, etc. One day he posted a blurb about Billy being in a former band of his, and had posted a links to the entire 10 song Stil Life demo tape in RA format. The links were all broken except for one song, Taking The Fall.

At the time, his web page was hosted on AOL's servers, and back then you could get into someone's FTP if you knew their AOL user name. I poked around his public FTP space and saw that he had uploaded 5 songs in RA format, even though they weren't linked properly.

I grabbed the 5 files, and ran them out to DAT. I still have the RA files (in fact, I'm looking at them on my server right now), but the titles were truncated and I don't remember the correct names.

makeit.rm, paradise.rm. somthin.rm, takint~1.rm, vascsil.rm

The dates on the files are 4/3/1998. I have the titles written down somewhere, probably on that DAT tape.

Dave is like Encyclopedia Pumptannica.

This song is not a live version. It's clearly a studio recording.

yes

every year beginning around september thru december, sam goody and a few other select music stores set up their christmas cd selections bin and "a very special christmas 3" is always one of the ones they bring back out. it's like one of the classics of that series of special christmas cd's, not only because of the pimpkins, but because of sting and a few others on it. i always pick one up every x-mas. i think i have like 4 or 5 now. i can't beat a dollar on ebay though. still, 6 or 7 bucks ain't bad. i don't mind paying it. :blush:

also, i have seen the very special christmas 2 on vinyl at a local used cd store, but have yet to see or buy the special christmas 3 on vinyl. anyone have this?

i think i've seen volume 2 on vinyl too. never seen volume 3 on vinyl. does it even exist?

i'm pretty certain it doesn't

yes

can you share, or send to discography@spfc.org the exact wording so I can get it added?

i'm pretty certain it doesn't

same here, i don't think it exists.

it's got victoria's secret written on the front in silver letters

i thought you was my caucasian?

Is it just me who cringes reading this guys posts?

I mean, even beside the posts where he is bragging about something, has his tongue up someone's arse or is trying to define the pumpkins entire career with a badly written paragraph.

:2thumbsup I tried to go for a colour that tends to make the inferior people laugh or give them something to write about (something that doesn't involve people they don't like/know).

Also, a lime was the first thing I poked up your mums arse. :2thumbsup

D-

must try harder

:rofl:

Thanks for the negative feedback ChristHimself! It just so happens that I couldn't be less concerned.

:rofl:

I hope Jesus didn't waste as much of his time as you do.

:rofl:

Okay guys, you have to get beyond the denial stage of netphorian life. The next step is that ou have to accept, as have i, that internet forums in general..are a waste of time.

the last person that was in here telling people to get fucked all of the time eventually got banned if i remember right. not that you care though. i don't think trolls have feelings, do they?

mickey, your rep is going down in shambles.

.....and here we have a classic example of a cunt with no grammer. Down in shambles? hmmm....

Don't worry douglas (would a parent really call their child that?) - I'll teach you how to read and write just as soon as I finish giving your dad the beating of his life.

*trembles with fear waiting for "neg. rep."*

grammer

If you're going to try and be a grammar nazi, at least learn how to spell it.

That searches collins dictionary and only comes up with 'grammar'

grammer was not found in the main Collins dictionary.

Aww it's ashame to see you had to resort to that. I also think it's pretty cute how you waited for someone to make a zing attempt for you.

Believe it or not it didn't take me very long to type those 3 lines about you, sorry if it was something you didn't want to read and I upset you, just voicing my opinion.

He must be a total dimwit. It's spelt GRAMMAR anyways. Must like talking complete nonsense.

I recommend the Oxford English Dictionary.

This song is not a live version. It's clearly a studio recording.

So do you think Billy actually played bass on it? I read that he played bass with them live (before a pumpkins gig) earlier in '88.

I'm done with you.

I'm done with you.

Sweet, now I can get back to boning your mum in the park. What a lovely day. A few beers.......sweet tunes.......and Christ's mum sucking me off in the sun.

I guess I'm not going "down in shambles" after all.

Wait? LOL -- yea, like I was just lurkign and waiting for a response to be posted... :rolleyes: Its not like I am here 24x7 like you are. The reply was already there by the next time I was on the boards dumbass.

I believe you, davin.

Hey douchebags, sup in the thread?

So do you think Billy actually played bass on it? I read that he played bass with them live (before a pumpkins gig) earlier in '88.

That's what I was told by the person whom I got it from (Jeroen) ages ago. Stil' Life and Smashing Pumpkins are both on the 7/9/1988 handbill...so there is some sort of connection there.

you are already down and out for the count.

I think that this is probably the most boring post I have ever read in my life. You've actually bought a copy of this shit 4 or 5 years in a row. This, to me, seems very queer. Maybe you disagree....

did that hammer it home for you?

still, 6 or 7 bucks ain't bad. i don't mind paying it. :banging:

eh, i wouldn't read too much into it. seems obsessive at first glance, but in reality if the guy's got the cash to spare, why not. when you're rollin' in it, you need to find ways to spend it right doug? ;)

still, 6 or 7 bucks ain't bad. i don't mind paying it. :banging:

You obviously don't mind paying the money because you did pay for them I just found it utterly boring. Even you must know that.

am i supposed to know who you are?

This world would be even more fucked up if people were supposed to know who you are? Gimme some more "neg. rep." big boy.

did that hammer it home for you?

Nope. Can I have some more "neg. rep." please cunt?

Oh, look at that, another one that cares so little about reputation he has to mention it in every post. Way to convince us, loser.
