Hi-Rez & CD Quality downloads of long-lost MONO mixes, BBC compilations, Spectral Remixes and other curiosa, all meticulously restored from the best sources. Hendrix, The Who, Beatles, Love, Mothers, Stones, Them, The Dead, etc. Free for All!
F.A.Q.
Who? Retired sound engineer who loves music from the 60's & early 70's.
What? My aim is to make rare stuff publicly available again with the best possible sound quality.
You & JWB make a "killer" team when it comes to creating compilations. As always, I can't begin to express how grateful I am to be able to experience the BBC tracks in top notice fidelity.

Wow! This looks great! Aside from the great sounds, I always appreciate the research and background info that you provide with your releases. Can't wait to crank it up.
I've found this makes a dandy companion to JWB's "Cream On The Radio" (2018 Version), in part because both are such a sonic upgrade from their official counterparts
Wonderful sounding collection of Jimi's BBC recordings. I have a very large collection of Hendrix vinyl boots, including some, but not all of these tracks. For my money this is the definitive and best sounding collection of The Experience at The BBC. Thank you so much for putting this together for us die hard collectors!
This sounds terrific! Well done - we appreciate you and all of the work put into these projects. These are not only 50+ year old BBC recordings plus direct-to-mono, and your hard work shows through. Another reason why hard-core music fans get so upset when the powers-that-be won't put any effort into locating proper tapes and/or "polishing" them.
RE: the last seconds of "Fire": my version is actually authentic and complete. The EH version was doctored; they have used the final notes from Purple Haze to mask the incomplete source they used.
Caused me to pull out and starting playing the 2CD set I compiled a few years ago, using a number of best sources, including several Westwood One CDs. Had a lot of fun de-clapping the now clap/don't clap song! Thank you again for all that you do!
Prof, Your attention to detail, even on your own work, is a lesson to us all. Thanks for caring enough to remaster the dynamite work you & JWB have done....Cheers
Another gem here that I am going to thank you for and download! These are great sounding LP rips and just saying thank you seems so minuscule really :-) Much appreciated and I know it will be much enjoyed...
Thanx a lot! well done! you can add as well the 29.12.1966 take of Hey joe,, and the other one from januaty 1967....you worked on it time ago...( i uploaded teh 29.12 take,,,,and you mastered it at DIMEADOZEN... cheers proff!!
Hey Prof Stone! Thanks so much for this, I only found it now. Thanks to Longjam for showing me the way. This is really great, I was never aware of the source history on these recordings! I have most of these tracks also as an off air reel recording from someone who lived in Berlin at the time, and taped it from British Forces Radio. They have slightly different spoken intros, but also feature Korner, etc as hosts....let me know if you are interested, I can wetransfer it for you. Cheers from Hamburg! Find me on DIME. Olve
Thanks Prof! I think I had most of this in various iterations but it's nice to have it all in one place. (Except the 6 min interview which I've never heard before!) On a technical note, what in your opinion is causing the whistling sound during the Radio 1 jingle? I've alwa\ya wondered. Is it radio interference ot is it their equipment or something else?
hey Prof. this is great and i guess now it could get even better. i see a previously missing session surfaced (the Monday, Monday programme, recorded on 1967-04-10, consisting of Purple Haze and Foxy Lady). I'm sure you already know, but just thought i'd mention it.
Brilliant as always Prof., really looking forward to digging into this gem

ReplyDelete>More likely to be John Peel rather than Brian Matthew (not Matthews).
ReplyDeleteNope, it's Brian Matthew talking.
>I didn't know that 2nd gen tapes were used.
Worse though, nearly everything on the EH is in fake stereo with added reverb.

ReplyDeleteThe above post applies to JWB as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Great sounding collection, but the outro to Fire (which seems to be an edit of two sources) is missing about a second of music.
ReplyDeleteWell done Prof. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteRE: the last seconds of "Fire": my version is actually authentic and complete. The EH version was doctored; they have used the final notes from Purple Haze to mask the incomplete source they used.
