i know this has been discussed multiple times--sorry for that.
and i would've searched the archives for answers, but the search
option is out of order. so, can somebody help me out by posting
the tracklisting of the 'the work' volumes? i want to burn my collected
outtakes on cd in the order as on those bootlegs. up to 1991 would
be great (don't really have any 90's outtakes!).

JDINTERACTIVE said:

are the tracks mastered and all that with good sound quality?

Milty said:

Well, the sound quality is overall excellent. Just a few odd ones here and there.

Milty said:

Let's be honest, it is a bootleg, and not all the tracks are crystal clear versions.
Like the 13 min version of Computer Blue, is the one that can be found on various bootlegs. The quality is not that great.

It's the sheer volume that makes this collection worth having.

There are some tracks missing from this list:

Volume 1 - Disc 1 and part of disc 2, as well as those extras which are not officially listed on the packages.
