Capitol Hi-Q - New Needledrops / Rips Thread (Will update whenever I find more!)

[BenKirb]

I'd also love to see you find the original versions of L-61/62 and L-65/66. Before the cues were replaced because of a rights dispute.

New day, new batch; everything here is reel-to-reel with most of the unheard stuff this time being from the X series. Titles in bold are new AFAIK, but if I’m wrong please let me know! The rest of it should be a good upgrade over the mp3 versions out there.

D-65/D-66 - Dan Kirsten
D-91 - Dan Kirsten. While I did post the LP release earlier in this thread, I’ve opted to replace it with the reel-to-reel copy. My needledrop had pretty bad distortion in some parts due to me accidentally setting the tracking force too high. D-92’s still a needledrop since that’s all I’ve got.
D-119/D-120 - Erik Markman. The circulating mp3 needledrop is missing the last 10 seconds of Mystique (it kind of just cuts off prematurely). You’re getting the complete track here.
D-133/D-134 - Ib Glindemann. This is also replacing my (somewhat noisy) needledrop. The tape sounds much nicer; give it a listen!
L-65/L-66 - Ib Glindemann. Not the original, unfortunately.
L-119/L-120 - Henrik Nielsen
L-129/L-130 - Dan Kirsten
L-131/L-132 - Dan Kirsten
L-145 - Ib Glindemann
L-159/L-160 - Erik Markman
M-89/M-90 - Dan Kirsten
M-91/M-92 - Erik Markman
M-103/M-104 - Ib Glindemann
M-105/M-106 - Ib Glindemann
M-107 - Ib Glindemann
X-41/X-42 - Ib Glindemann
X-49 - Ib Glindemann
X-51/X-52 - Ib Glindemann
X-105 - Henrik Nielsen
X-109 - Dan Kirsten
X-112 - Dan Kirsten
X-124 - Dan Kirsten

This is an amazing project and such a great amount of work. It’s much appreciated though.  I always hope I’ll stumble across some William Loose incidentals from Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! They are credited to him and Paul Sawtell and sound very similar thematically to many of these here. Thank you!

[SoCalRyan]

Thanks for the further additions Certainly1080! These sound even better than some of my previous rips. By the way someone on Discogs has added more rare albums to the Hi - “Q” series page listing.

There's a couple other D-series albums "Havershaw" added to the Discogs database in the time since SoCal's post:
discogs.com/release/34418956-Emil-Cadkin-Harry-Bluestone-D-75D-76 (D-75/76, Cadkin/Bluestone)

discogs.com/release/34419010-Emil-Cadkin-Harry-Bluestone-D-79D-80 (D-79/80, also Cadkin/Bluestone)

Needless to say, these are incredible finds. Especially stoked about the "SM-" tracks on D-65/66 and 61/62, since I've been wondering about those ever since ClassicThemes.com brought them up ages ago when talking about their composer (Alexander Laszlo).

Thank you very much Certainly.

Darn, I knew about those, but I just forgot to list them earlier.  Thanks for sharing the links for the others apmnut. Hopefully Havershaw has more to add to the list.

Nice! I never realized D-61/D-62 and D-65/D-66 had older versions. Makes you wonder just how much of this material is either undocumented or completely lost to time. Since the versions of D-49/D-50 and D-53/D-54 we have are from the late 60s, I'm thinking originals for those likely exist as well. There even might be more than that.

More Cadkin / Bluestone tracks. Based on their time lengths, it may be easier to find which tracks were reissued on the CPM Archive Series.
