We've discussed this series before on GL, but we really should have a Lost Masters thread here. Preceding Tracks by two years, this 19 volume set, plus 2 essentials compilations, of rehearsals, songwriting sessions, demos, outtakes and alternates was a treasure trove.I bought the entire set two or three discs at a time and it really was like stealing what we can from the treasures of the Lord. Even if you trim away the fat, and there's a lot of it, it's still an exhaustive collection of rarities that I still like diving into from time to time.
I'm still perplexed at how the Nebraska disc from this set (album cuts and outtakes alike) sounds better than the actual official album.
As promised, here's a link to download the entire Lost Masters Collection in FLAC. Seperate folders for every volume + volume 1 & 2 of The Lost Masters Essential Collection. There's an info file with a summary of the entire collection in the main folder. Also includes artwork and seperate info files per volume. I'll keep this on my cloud until I need the space for something else but if you stumble upon this thread in the future and the link doesn't work anymore send me a message and I'll reupload. Just click 'Download as ZIP' at the top to download the entire collection, should show up in your downloads, unpack with software like 7-Zip and you're good to go. Total is around 8GB but you can download seperate volumes if you already have some volumes or if you don't have enough free space on your hard drive. Enjoy!

Imagine
God i love I'm Goin' Down .....sure wish i had gotten to hear it live more than once ...... And wow i would have loved to hear it done with the never ending outro lol
Great thread and lots of things to discuss! I believe I have the entire collection in FLAC somewhere, if there's any interest I can upload the collection on Mega and share the link when it's done?
I had to remove all of these from my AM almost immediately after uploading them because of minimal disc space on my Mac. It's been a couple of months since I new got a new one, so it might be time to get them back on there.
This is sooooo good.
