FAN-MADE PROJECT - NOT FOR SALE
*Share freely but do not distribute as mp3*
It has been almost 13 years since the Green Habit Compilation was put together by the
Red Mosquito Forum community. As the band has now been together for double that length
of time, an update or sequel to this collection was well overdue. Hundreds of official
bootlegs later (including numerous 'vault' releases from the pre-bootleg era), every
song has been put up for review.
Red Mosquito forum users were invited to nominate and debate their favourite versions
of each song, for me to then go away and listen to each to make a final decision:
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=8556
There were a number of criteria for picking a definitive live version: sound quality,
correct lyrics, no guitar flubs, full band (if that is how the song was recorded in
the studio), electric rather than acoustic (again, if that is how the song was recorded),
and original era/drummer where possible (unless later versions had something really
special). Basically, if you had to represent the essence and power of each song through
one single live version - which would it be?
After a LOT of deliberation, this is what we came up with. Thank you to everyone for
your suggestions and for the discussion to date. This will be a constantly evolving
collection, so will be reviewed as new shows are played or released from the vault.
The best known source for each track has been used, and remastered by JWB only where
required to provide the smoothest possible listening experience.

just listened to this disc and yeah, good job getting this to not sound out of sorts with the rest of the set.

It does indeed - ‘Santa Cruz’ is substituted for ‘Telluride’ in the chorus, and there are a handful of other changes (e.g. ‘mountains’ instead of ‘beach’).
The only other performance was at Bridge School 2010, but we obviously only have an audience source for that (a decent one from memory).
What do you think folks - soundboard with swapped lyrics, or audience with correct lyrics?...

I did consider this one - it is the only version available that hasn't been drop-tuned.
The fake crowd noise though is just too horrible...
