Stooges Theater of Cruelty CD Box

Description

Release date October 14th    950 copies only       ..the free stickers have now all gone  I’m afraid

It is with deep regret that we must inform you that we have discovered that the 40 second band intro on disc 3 track 5 is not on the cd .. although it was present in the individual track’s masters somehow (and we don’t yet understand why) it was missing from the DDP master (Cd master) we are deeply sorry as this was supposed to have been the final word on The Whisky.  Graham Ling is understandably upset about this and is no way responsible this is a production foul up…. as is track 11. (chat) which doesn’t exist 

 sorry .. the rest of the boxed set is amazing however!

ALL of these recordings were originally recorded on Cassette whilst we have cleaned the material up as much as can be done .. these are Lo Fi recordings!

• Compiled over 3 years by Stooges historian Graham Ling from original Cassette recordings from his and Easy Action Records archives and for the very first time all of the recordings are in the correct running order, speed corrected and untampered with except sonically cleaning and mastering
• Features completely unheard material.
• Only 950 Boxes will be made available as this project is more of a historical document than a commercial release ‘righting the wrongs’ of the last 45 years of cut n paste Stooges albums.
• The Box will also feature first-hand accounts of these concerts (often very amusing!) as well as photos from the actual shows in the 24-page booklet!
• Royalties are paid to the band and families of   as is the way with ALL easy action releases (this is NOT the case with many stooges releases currently on the market)
