The recording details in the enclosed artwork.
In the history of bootleg collecting rarely a single set of tapes
aroused so many speculations and undivided interest during
very long period of time as it was in the case of the recordings
od David Crosby during and after recording of his solo album
ìIf I Could Only Remember My Nameî, commonly called PERRO
Tapes.
It all started in 1991 with 120 minutes PERRO DAT tape that
Paul Kantner made from the original tapes that were in the
possession of Graham Nash and at the same time C-90 cassette
with, presumably at the time, If I Could Only Remember My
Name outtakes started to circulate. Later, the set of three C-90
cassettes was labeled ìPerro tapesî, although a lot of materials
were instantly recognised as David And The Dorks Matrix tapes
and so called Hart Jam. In 1997, the first set of four CD-Rs
included the most of non-PERRO tracks from the mentioned
cassettes. A year later, double CDR ìIf I Could Only Remember
The Outtakesî, joint venture of a Dutch collector and Eastern
European collector started making turns in the trades among
the collectors of Crosby and company. Although often blamed
as the set of outfakes it was widely circulated for a long time.
The first true reference set of PERRO discs showed up in 2001
and it was consisted of 2 CDR named ìPERRO: The Stephen
Barncard Rough Mixesî and 2 CDR named ìThe PERRO
Supplement: A Collection Of PERRO-Related Tracksî The first
two discs consisted of the complete legendary PERRO DAT
recording in the best quality.
The first ìnewî recordings started to circulate in 2007 with
the compilation of IICORMN and PERRO tracks in the superior
quality than ever before. The bootleg was called ìEverybody
Here Can Be In The Bandî, but on the torrent sites it was called
ìDavid Crosby Sessionsî or ìIICORMN - The Sessionsî. Later in
the year, three sets of tracks started to circulate under titles: ì
îAcousticî, ìElectricî and Residueî, all in similar superior
quality. Some of the tracks were of suspicious origin, but the
improvement in quality was obvious.
The set in your hands is the best quality and the most complete
collection of genuine IIORMN outtakes and the best quality
versions of PERRO tracks. All outfakes were disregarded, same
as the tracks that were not the integral part of David Crosby
sessions, such was Jefferson Airplane Bark session that was
included in PERRO Supplement.
Until something new would show up, I hope that this could serve
as true reference of magnificent David Crosby sessions
from 1970-1971.
