Man this looks absolutely amazing. I spotted an error however. You have “Of the Earth” with a date of 2001. That should be 2010 I believe.

Bugger! Thanks for picking up that typo - artwork and info file now updated. Please re-download here.

Thank you Ridley, once again top notch work and both discs flow really well. Hate to be a pain in the arse but can I make a quick request regarding the artwork? Would it be possible for you to knock up a version of boht discs with the album title, disc numbers and you logos an usually stuff please and a back inlay cover attached to the front cover so us old schoolers can make our own physical copies please. Once again thanks

No worries, happy to do versions of the discs with title and disc numbers. By 'back inlay cover attached to the front cover' I assume you mean for a chipboard cover like this?

Any other mac users getting an error when trying to unzip the first disc? I keep getting the message Unable to expand "Disc 1.zip" into "PJ Stray Cats". (Error 22 - Invalid argument.)

how are you guys making your own CDs?

Does anybody know of a good places to get the artwork or stickers printed?

i have used kunaki in the past and they are ok for the CD but their artwork printing is sometimes sketchy, this custom made set above looks real nice though i'm not sure these 2cd sleeves are still made.

Deleted and re-downloaded, still happening. I suspect this is due to a known issue with Mac OS Catalina not being able to unzip some 32-bit archives made on PCs.

Is anyone able to either A) link me to a folder with the individual Disc 1 files or B) try unzipping then re-zipping Disc 1 on a Mac and sharing with me?

Oh, this is nice!

Any chance that the lossy-sourced tracks could be uploaded in their original formats please to avoid re-encoding their flacs?

Sorry, but all tracks (including the lossy ones) have undergone audio editing (slightly EQ changes, levels, etc) to improve their sound and to fit with the rest of this set. I'd just encode all these tracks at 320kbps if you need a lossy version :thumbsup:

Arent SOLAT, Breath, I Got Shit and MotH already in Lost Dogs? These are different versions right?

They are not on Lost Dogs. You're probably thinking of the Greatest Hits.

O shit, youre right! I genuinely consider including a Baba O´Riley in the comp.

Thank you mate. Not the chipboard cover but to make a 4 page booklet (front cover, inside page 1, inside page 2 and then page 4 the reverse of the booklet) the page you see when you open the jewel case mate. Disc 2 image would probably work best

I always mix up Man of the Hour and Lost Dogs too because they were released so close together.

So you just want a version of the booklet the same as what is provided but without text on ‘page 4’?

This is amazing! Thank you for all the hard work that went into compiling all the sources and the fantastic artwork. I thought this was an official release when I first saw someone posting about it on twitter.

Can someone send me a link to the download please? I cannot 'see' it in the OP. Thanks!

It's awesome as always.
But I gotta point out that putting these 3 together, was a killer move:
"I'm Still Here" -> "Long Road" -> "Cold Confession"
:heartbeat:

I'm Still Here > Long Road was a sheer coincidence :shock:

I used to buy those chipboard sleeves from Kufala (who made PJ boots 2008-2011) but I'm not sure if Nugs (current bootleg manufacturers) would sell them :?:

Awesome job as always guys. Question though...

Any reason why the studio version of "Out Of Sand" was left off of this? Not the Third Man Records experiment, but the actual studio version. I don't think I've seen that released anywhere else yet. Just curious.

PJ Stray Cats (new 2CD version)
